    Hyundai Considers Whether or Not To Do A Pickup

      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!

    • I probably need to back up and watch it sometime.  Everyone has heard about it, but I've yet to see it.  On the "to do" list.
    • Amazing musician, if he is a doctor, WOW, he also could have been a Performer, love the song and the movie. Phantom of the Opera is a very soul moving movie imho. His other covers are equally amazing.  
    • First, I had a little bit of video from violinists on the QM2 playing various pieces of music.  I relayed this passage, which sounded familiar, to friends who couldn't peg what it was because the video was a short segment where I was also panning the fairly grandiose Queen's Room.  Finally, someone pegged it and said it was something important from "Phantom of the Opera" ... nothing I'd care to sit through.  At any rate, I found one musician also covering "All I Ask of You" on a violin. This YouTube can really make a person appreciate this instrument, this instrumental piece, and the precision needed to pull this off.  The musician is a young doctor, from what I can glean through the "about" info, and plays the violin to relax.  He does incredible work!
    • MECHANICAL PHOTOS This is the engine bay and the hood uses a prop rod.  The engine is a 2.5 liter 4-cylinder (HEV) augmented by an electric motor. The label shows conformance to all emission standards for model year 2025 and that OBD II just keeps going The orange fittings and plumbing apparently indicate what is part of the hybrid model, as was the case in a Honda Accord Hybrid I drove during the last year - - - - -  END OF PHOTOS
    • INTERIOR PHOTOS This is the view of the front of the cabin as seen from the driver's door This is the view of the front of the cabin as seen from the passenger's door This is one view of the "fixed" displays in the dash and the lower part of the center gauge, which can be customized by toggling;  note the symmetrically placed temperature, time, odometer, and range digital readouts This shows the controls found on each side of the steering wheel and, with the base LE trim, the steering wheel is urethane This shows the push button ignition, the infotainment screen's placement, the climate control panel, and the two lower center air vents This shows the gear selector, the cubby with ports, driving mode, parking brake release, and cup holders The tidy clustering of control buttons to the left of the steering wheel comes in handy Rear seat legroom appears to be decent for the average sized adult passenger Looking over one's shoulder shows a pleasing roofline and window outline, engaged headrests, and the contrasting upholstered areas in the LE model, not to mention good visibility The trunk capacity appears to be in line for this vehicle and for this genre
