Hyundai Could Green-light Santa Cruz Pickup As Early As November - The Motor Report

After making its concept debut at January’s Detroit Motor Show, the Hyundai Santa Cruz has stirred a flurry of speculation: will it make it into production, or will it not. Now the latest report from US publication Car & Driver indicates that president and CEO of Hyundai’s North American operations, Dave Zuchowski, has hinted that November will be when a production future for the Santa Cruz is decided. Hyundai’s American operations view the Santa Cruz as one way of furthering its options in the crossover-mad North American market. By opting for a less heavy-duty platform, the Santa Cruz would occupy a market segment by itself, picking up where car-based models like the Subaru Baja left off. Source: www.themotorreport.com.au
