The 2026 Hyundai Santa Cruz is a Sport Activity Vehicle that blends the versatility of a pickup truck and SUV. If that wasn’t enough, it also adds premium performance that adventurers love. Heritage Hyundai Towson is outlining its standout performance features.
Powerful Engines
There are two engine options for the 2026 Hyundai Santa Cruz. It uses a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine to generate up to 191 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque. The XRT and Limited models use a 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine instead, which increases power to 281 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque.
HTRAC All-Wheel Drive
When your driving conditions get tricky, you’ll love the addition of the available HTRAC all-wheel drive system in the Sport Activity Vehicle (SAV). The intelligent AWD system automatically shifts your power to the wheels with the most traction when it senses that your grip is diminished. It comes standard on the Limited and XRT models and is available on the others.
Terrain Mode Select
Available Terrain Mode Select helps you venture out with confidence in the 2026 Hyundai Santa Cruz. Its Snow, Mud, and Sand modes ensure you’re ready for any setting. Your SAV adjusts a variety of settings such as your traction control and engine torque to ensure you’re equipped to tackle the difficult surfaces.
Notable Capabilities
The SAV also has the strength and space to bring your adventure gear along for the ride. When properly equipped, it boasts a maximum-available 5,000-lb towing capacity. It also has a 27 cubic-foot truck bed with standard tie-down points, underfloor storage, and an available retractable tonneau cover.
