Hyundai Santa Cruz
A cross between a pickup and an SUV, the brand new Santa Cruz prefers to be called a Sport Adventure Vehicle. Built on the same platform as the Tucson, it is aimed at outdoor enthusiasts who want the convenience of an open cargo bed without the size and fuel consumption of large pickups. The Santa Cruz is motivated by a turbocharged 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine that sends 281 horsepower to all four wheels.
