Introducing the 2026 Hyundai Santa Cruz, a game-changing Sport Adventure Vehicle that blends the practicality of a pickup with the comfort of an SUV. This innovative vehicle is now available at Don Bessette Hyundai in Minot, ready to take on all your adventures across North Dakota and beyond. With its bold design, impressive capabilities, and ready-for-anything features, the Santa Cruz is ready to redefine what you expect from a compact pickup.
The 2026 Santa Cruz offers two compelling engine choices to suit your driving needs. The standard 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine delivers a balanced 191 horsepower, providing plenty of power for your daily drives around Minot. For those who want an extra boost, the available 2.5-liter turbocharged engine churns out an impressive 281 horsepower, helping you to tackle even the most challenging terrains. Both engines are paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC, making sure you have smooth and precise shifts every time.
Whether you're driving through the streets of Surrey, ND, or venturing off the beaten path, the Santa Cruz has you covered with its available HTRAC all-wheel drive system. This advanced technology uses traction and stability, providing confident handling in various conditions. And with up to 5,000 pounds of towing capacity when properly equipped, you can bring along your favorite toys and gear on all your adventures.
The Santa Cruz comes in five well-equipped trim levels, allowing you to select the right combination of features and amenities to match your preferences. The base SE trim offers an impressive array of standard features, including stain-resistant cloth seats, an eight-inch touchscreen display with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a versatile multi-function tailgate. As you explore the higher trims, you'll discover premium upgrades such as a panoramic sunroof, heated and ventilated leather seats, a 10.25-inch touchscreen with built-in navigation, and a powerful Bose audio system.
No matter which trim you choose, the Santa Cruz delivers a comfortable and connected driving experience. The spacious cabin provides the room you need for five passengers, while the available dual-zone automatic climate control makes sure everyone stays comfortable on long drives. With thoughtful storage solutions throughout the interior and the flexible pickup bed, you'll have plenty of space to bring along all your gear for work or play around Towner, ND.
All versions come standard with Hyundai SmartSense, a collection of advanced driver assistance technologies designed to provide an extra layer of protection. Features like Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Keeping Assist, and Driver Attention Warning work together to help you drive through the roads of Velva and beyond.
For even greater peace of mind, the Santa Cruz offers available features such as Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist, Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist, and the Surround View Monitor. These modern technologies enhance your awareness and help you make safer decisions behind the wheel.
