Discover the Hyundai Santa Cruz off-road capabilities as we dive into its impressive ground clearance, powerful torque, advanced tire technology, and the robust drivetrain that sets this compact pickup apart. Perfect for adventure seekers or those who crave versatility in their vehicle, the Santa Cruz is geared to redefine your off-road experience.
Can the Hyundai Santa Cruz Go Off-Road?
The 2024 Hyundai Santa Cruz is not just a stylish urban companion. It's a versatile adventurer designed to handle off-road challenges with ease. If you pay extra for the HTRAC AWD, the Santa Cruz is even better for off-roading.
Ground Clearance
One of the key factors influencing Hyundai Santa Cruz's off-road performance is ground clearance, and the car doesn't disappoint. With an impressive ground clearance of 8.6 inches, you can confidently navigate uneven surfaces, ensuring that rocks, roots, and bumps won't impede your off-road excursions. The elevated stature not only enhances its off-road capabilities but also makes city and highway driving easier.

 Torque
Off-roading demands power, and the 2024 Santa Cruz delivers with a robust torque output of 181-pound-feet of torque for the SE and SEL trims. A lot of torque helps you in overcoming obstacles and ascending challenging terrains, and the 2.5 liter four-cylinder engine puts out 191 horses.
Tires
Equipped with Michelin Primacy LTX 245/50R-20 102V M+S tires, the Hyundai Santa Cruz's off-road capability is evident in its readiness to tackle a variety of terrains. These well-designed tires offer enhanced traction and durability, ensuring optimal performance on muddy paths, sandy dunes, or rocky landscapes. The tire choice reflects Hyundai's commitment to delivering a vehicle that not only looks the part but is genuinely prepared for off-road adventures.
Drivetrain
The 2024 Santa Cruz boasts a sophisticated all-wheel-drive (AWD) system that maximizes traction across all four wheels, providing stability and control in challenging off-road conditions. The AWD system dynamically distributes power between the front and rear wheels, adapting to varying terrains to optimize performance. Whether you're navigating through slippery mud or forging a path through sandy stretches, the Santa Cruz's drivetrain is engineered to instill confidence and maintain composure off the beaten path.
