Hyundai Santa Cruz keeps an estimated 73% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #52 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Hyundai Santa Cruz retains an estimated 73% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #52 of 530 cars we track. That is 10 points above the 63% five-year average for Truck in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Hyundai Santa Cruz sheds about 3% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $29,750 it falls to around $21,747 by year five — a five-year loss near $8,003, about $4.39 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Hyundai Santa Cruz bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.

Around 2 years old: that is just past the steepest depreciation, so you skip the biggest drop while the value curve is flattening.
