The long awaited model, according to its maker, “shatters both SUV and truck segments, creating an entirely new vehicle category”.
The Santa Cruz has a secure, open bed area which includes a lockable tonneau cover and hidden bed storage for diverse gear-carrying flexibility.
“Santa Cruz, with its bold styling, breaks open an all new segment territory, both for Hyundai and the industry as a whole. Open-bed flexibility coupled with closed-cabin security meets the changing everyday needs of its adventure-oriented buyers, while powerful and efficient engines and superb maneuverability ensure it is a pleasure to drive in urban or off-road environments, claimed Jose Munoz, president and CEO, Hyundai Motor North America.
HMMA recently expanded the plant to add the Santa Cruz.
