2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz Review: A Stylish, Fresh Take on the Truck

According to Merriam-Webster’s dictionary, a pickup truck is defined as a vehicle with “an enclosed cab and an open body with low sides and a tailgate.” So while traditional truck enthusiasts – not to mention the very brand that builds it – refuse to call the 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz one, this vehicle can definitely be classified as a pickup truck. This pickup’s non-conformity and non-traditional approach is a fresh take on trucks, and its biggest strength. AutoTrader.ca Editor in Chief Jodi Lai takes the wheel this week to demonstrate how Hyundai's compact truck challenges the idea that trucks need to be ginormous in order to be practical.
