    Decision On Whether or Not Hyundai Santa Cruz Concept Goes Into Production Due In November

      November Is the Month When We Learn Whether or not the Santa Cruz Concept Goes Into Production

    Back in March, we reported on that Hyundai was putting the Santa Cruz Concept under the microscope to decide whether or not to make it into a production model. Now Motor Trend reports that a decision could be reached in November at the automaker's global product review.

    “We feel pretty good about it,” said Dave Zuchowski , Hyundai Motor America CEO.

    “Our intention at Detroit was to prove to Korea that we have to build [the Santa Cruz]. The reaction has been overwhelmingly positive, and that has been fed back to Korea.”

    How confident is Zuchowski getting a yes to the Santa Cruz? Basic engineering work on this model has already begun.

    The picture really does not do this vehicle justice.  I was reading an article out by the Detroit Free Press, and the side view was shown.  This combination truck/car kind of reminds me of the old El Camino put out by Chevy years ago.  Although, I must admit this Hyundai Santa Cruz sits up up and the aerodynamics look sharper!  Should be interesting, if research shows consumers showed a high enough interest for them to go through with this design and offer it to the public.

    • I'm sure PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP isn't looking to go under with/for them. I couldn't imagine any accounting/auditing firm would be willing to put their life at stake over allowing fraud to happen under their oversight, but there's always a chance. I should clarify. I'm not trying to say they're clean of any wrongdoing. I'm just saying I couldn't imagine a company committing fraud that's comparable to Enron ever again, because of the measures that were put in place BECAUSE of Encon.  I guess with David never saying anything positive about Tesla, it would be advantageous for him to continue to trash them while he's trying to short a stock.  Buuuuut, it would be really smart of him to bet against the company in which he supposedly believes will fail. 
    • Interesting and thoughtful on streets and fire departments...  
    • A much shorter Musk/Tesla video, gives you some flavor of the longer video.
    • So I have to disclose the back ally sexual encounter with a Toyota employee that was the issue behind all of my anti Ford posts here? Shocking that we actually have enforced ethics agreements, the rest of the country seems adept at ignoring them. They may not go bankrupt right away, they do things like Energy Storage and the like that generates cash. And there is a federal pipeline of cash into Tesla.
    • Interesting, like this take... As far as Tesla goes, Thunderfoot has great YouTube videos.  I have posted this one before, but he has a ton. All of the Musk/Tesla ethics issues are wayyy out in the open, you pretty much have to be willingly blind to ignore them.   I may have posted this a long time ago, but it really shows how some folks go way out of their way to avoid reality. This is a response to the reality denying Musk/Tesla fanbois. I consider CCAP 41 to be very rational and this is not a direct response to him.
