Desire for Acquiring These Stylish SUV Vehicles
New Compact Pickup Models Combine SUV Space and Truck Functionality
In the automotive market, two new vehicles have caught the attention of consumers: the Fiat Toro and the Hyundai Santa Cruz. These compact pickups offer a unique blend of SUV space and truck functionality, making them attractive options for families and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
The Fiat Toro, produced on the Jeep Compass platform in Brazil since 2015, is priced around €25,000. It boasts a 2.99-meter wheelbase and offers a 9-speed automatic transmission, which is available with front or all-wheel drive. The vehicle's cargo area measures 135 cm in length, 108 cm in width between the wheel arches, and approximately 45 cm in height.
The Fiat Toro's weight ranges between 1,620 and 1,870 kilograms, depending on the trim and engine. One of its engine options is a 2.0-liter MultiJet diesel engine with 170 PS and 350 Nm of torque.
On the other hand, the Hyundai Santa Cruz, developed for the North American market and based on a unibody platform inspired by the Hyundai Tucson, measures 4.97 meters in length, 1.91 meters in width, and 1.70 meters in height. The Santa Cruz offers a combined fuel consumption of about 9 to 10 liters per 100 kilometers.
The Santa Cruz's cargo area measures approximately 132 cm in length, 127 cm in width between the wheel arches, and about 48 cm in height. It is priced between around €23,000 and €34,000 in North America. The vehicle is available with front or all-wheel drive and automatic transmissions. The curb weight of the Santa Cruz is approximately 1,900 kilograms.
Engine options for the Santa Cruz include a 2.5-liter four-cylinder with 194 PS and a 2.5-liter turbo with 285 PS. The Santa Cruz features an integrated, lockable cargo bed floor for additional storage space.
It's important to note that both vehicles are compact, with the Fiat Toro measuring 4.92 meters in length, 1.84 meters in width, and 1.74 meters in height, and the Santa Cruz measuring slightly larger, as mentioned earlier.
Regrettably, neither the Fiat Toro nor the Hyundai Santa Cruz are offered by their manufacturers for sale in Europe. The Fiat Toro is available primarily in Latin American markets, and the Hyundai Santa Cruz is not marketed or sold in the European market by Hyundai.
In conclusion, the Fiat Toro and the Hyundai Santa Cruz are high-quality vehicles that offer a unique blend of SUV space and truck functionality. While they may not be available in Europe, they are certainly worth keeping an eye on for those in the market for a compact pickup.
