Hyundai is all set to join the pickup party with its Santa Cruz. In addition to teasing the car, Hyundai has also announced that it will debut globally on April 15. For those unfamiliar with the car, it was first revealed as a concept in 2015 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
Notice the parametric design on the grille, the shape of the LED headlights, and just the overall appearance of the front of the car? Pretty sure it reminds you of the 2022 Tucson. At the rear, it gets hammer-shaped LED tail lights and big ‘SANTA CRUZ’ lettering on the tailgate which opens up to the open flatbed.
Sporting the same front facia as the SUV complete with the Parametric Hidden Lights, the overall silhouette has been toned down little from the concept, aside from the presence of rear door handles, new taillights sporting a horizontal T-pattern of LEDs and block letter Santa Cruz badging on the tailgate.
The newcomer’s now confirmed close links with the Tucson is likely to be carried over to the interior where Hyundai’s so-called Interspace design method will be applied.
In spite of no images being released, expect the Santa Cruz’s cabin to feature the 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system and digital instrument cluster, the minimalist climate control panel and the push-button operated automatic transmission derived from the Palisade and more recently, the Staria.
