| Senior - BHPian  | Re: USA: Hyundai to develop a Pickup Truck 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz Pick-up Truck unveiled Hyundai will soon be making its debut in the pick-up truck segment, with the introduction of the all-new Santa Cruz. The new (2022) Hyundai Santa Cruz pick-up truck is based on the concept that was showcased 6 years back in 2015.  The new Hyundai Santa Cruz pick-up truck seems to be heavily inspired by the latest-generation Tucson SUV. The pick-up truck carries forward a similar front end, especially the front grille with the integrated LED daytime running lights and the main LED headlamp unit positioned below.  The pick-up truck also comes with prominent skid plates at the front, while the sides feature extended wheel arches, housing 20-inch alloys. The black cladding extends all the way to the rear as well, adding a level of ruggedness to its overall appeal. The interiors of the pick-up come packed with features and equipment. Some of the key features in the cabin include a 10-inch digital instrument cluster, an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system (upgradable to 10-inches) with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, wireless charging, steering-mounted controls, different driving modes and plenty of other safety equipment.  The 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz is also said to be based on a monocoque, in place of the ladder-on-frame chassis, which usually underpin pick-up trucks. This is the same platform that also underpins the Tucson. However, unlike the SUV, the Santa Cruz will come with a standard AWD system, instead of the FWD on the Tucson.  The new Hyundai Santa Cruz pick-up is offered with a choice of two engine options. The first is a 2.5-litre four-cylinder naturally-aspirated engine producing 190 BHP / 244 Nm, paired with an 8-speed hydraulic automatic transmission. This variant has a towing capacity of 1,588 kg. There is also another 2.5-litre turbocharged engine churning out a higher 275 BHP / 420 Nm, mated to an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. This powertrain-equipped variant offers a maximum towing capacity of 2,268 kg. Link to Team-BHP news |

| Re: Hyundai unveils its first-ever pickup truck, the Santa Cruz The North American market Hyundai Santa Cruz achieves IIHS' coveted Top Safety Pick Award when fitted with specific headlights, but misses out on the TSP+ Award since the 'Good' rated headlights are available only as optional and not standard (other headlights are rated 'Poor').  The model was tested for side impact in the original IIHS configuration and not the updated 2021 side test (which is not a 2021 Top Safety Pick criterion but might be starting from 2022). Other impact tests were conducted as part of manufacturer verification. Find the press release here and the full rating page here. Last edited by ron178 : 3rd November 2021 at 20:29. Reason: Added note about manufacturer in-house verification tests. |
