2025 Ford Maverick vs 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz
2025 Ford Maverick vs 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz in Greer, SC
The Compact Truck That Punches Above Its Weight
The 2025 Ford Maverick continues to prove that great things truly come in smart packages. When compared to the 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz, the Maverick leads the way in value, utility, and innovation. With a lower starting price, a standard hybrid powertrain, and superior towing capability, the Maverick is purpose-built for real-world utility—and it’s only available from the brand that invented the pickup truck. D&D Ford in Greer invites drivers in Greenville, Spartanburg, and the Upstate to take a test drive and experience the 2025 Maverick behind the wheel.
Standard Hybrid Efficiency the Santa Cruz Can’t Match
One of the Maverick’s standout features? Every base model comes standard with a 2.5L full hybrid engine. That means excellent fuel economy—up to 40 MPG in the city—without sacrificing everyday capability. Hyundai doesn't offer a hybrid option at all on the Santa Cruz, making the Maverick the clear winner for eco-conscious drivers who still need tough truck functionality.
Better Towing and Payload at a Lower Price
Despite its smaller footprint, the Maverick boasts up to 4,000 lbs. of towing capacity when properly equipped—outperforming the Santa Cruz in real-world versatility. It also offers a max payload of 1,500 lbs., giving you more power to haul gear, tools, or weekend toys. And with a lower starting MSRP than the Santa Cruz, Maverick drivers get more truck for less money, making it a truly winning option.
Ford FLEXBED® Makes the Most of Every Inch
The Maverick’s FLEXBED® system is an innovation Hyundai just can’t match. It includes slots, tie-downs, and available 110V outlets, turning your truck bed into a mobile workspace or adventure hub. Its versatility and customization simplify life—perfect for DIYers and weekend warriors around Greer and Upstate SC.
Comfortable, Smart, and Packed with Features
Inside, the Maverick offers a surprisingly spacious cabin with clever storage solutions, intuitive controls, and standard Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. Available features like wireless charging, an upgraded B&O® sound system, and Ford Co-Pilot360™ safety tech give the Maverick an edge in both comfort and confidence.
