Hyundai is going to green-light the
Santa Cruz Crossover Truck Concept this November, according to the brand’s US
boss.
Hyundai US wants more
crossovers in North America and the positive reaction of the public to the
Santa Cruz Truck Concept helped them persuade the Korean HQ to consider putting
it into production. Dave Zuchowksi, Hyundai Motor America CEO said
that they expect the final approval for production by November, according to
Car&Driver.
There
have been many reports on the subject and it’s not the first time that the CEO
of the Hyundai US is
making statements on the matter, which shows how much Americans want the
Koreans to pull the trigger and give the final OK.
As for
the concept, the Santa Cruz
Pickup debuted at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show, having a 2.0-litre diesel engine
under the bonnet and a truly distinctive shape. Hyundai said that the Santa Cruz is
aimed at crossover drivers who are looking for greater utility but don’t want a
traditional truck and the usual compromises than come with it.
