As a company management representative reported, the Hyundai pickup is expected between 2020 and 2021, and its appearance will match the styling of the Santa Cruz concept car.

The vehicle is expected to receive a turbodiesel powertrain, but a hybrid option is also not ruled out. According to unconfirmed information, the production version, like the concept, will be equipped with LED lighting and feature a distinctive modern exterior.

The South Korean company believes that such a passenger-cargo vehicle will be in demand not so much among farmers or builders, but among people who play sports and those who prefer outdoor activities.

According to available information, when the production version of the Santa Cruz hits the market, the sister brand Kia may create its own modification based on this Hyundai pickup.
