  • A Truck from Hyundai?

The Hyundai HCD-15 Santa Cruz concept shown at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show is the automaker's idea of a compact truck with such features as seating for five and a unique bed that can extend to provide more space. With the concept getting raves from the press and auto show visitors, Hyundai has decided to investigate the truck idea further.

Reuters reports that a unnamed Hyundai executive told reporters a pickup truck is under consideration. But Park Byung-cheol, a director at Hyundai's R&D division said there were "hurdles" to the production of a truck. Byung-cheol didn't go into detail about what 'hurdles' are.

    Have to say this is a Sharp little Pickup. I like the style for this Car based Pickup.

     

    As I have said on the Canyon / Colorado threads, GM missed the opportunity to build a true Mini Pickup and run with it. Now it looks like Hyundia just might do it.

     

    Do not get me wrong the new Canyon / Colorado are awesome rides for a Mid Size truck. I still think many people want a mini pickup for their Inner City living or suburban living with Home Depot runs on the weekend.

     

    Sharp Looking side profile!
