Hyundai Won't Produce This Santa Cruz SUV
by AutoExpert | 31 August, 2021
The new Hyundai Santa Cruz is inspired by the Tucson SUV in terms of appearance. However, it hasn't deterred the Kolesa team from designing an SUV based on the Santa Cruz.
The Russian publication has successfully converted some of its most unusual design features into the shape of an SUV that is wider than the Tucson and would have more than enough capacity for seven seats by changing the truck into an SUV.
At the front, the car has been kept mostly the same, with almost the same LED headlights and concealed daytime running lights as the Santa Cruz. From the front fascia to the back doors, the SUV is remarkably similar to the truck. After that, a canopy was created to sit in replacement of the bed, and the overall effect is rather nice.
Santa Cruz's distinctive taillights have been maintained, albeit they are now linked by an LED light bar. The Santa Cruz-based SUV is 4,971 mm long, 1,905 mm wide, and 1,694 mm tall, with a 3,005 mm wheelbase, making it increasingly larger than the Tucson. Nevertheless, despite how appealing the SUV appears to be, Hyundai is unlikely to produce one.
