Hyundai has been quite busy lately, with rumors of developing an electric pickup truck and plans to introduce an electric version of the Santa Fe.
The South Korean automaker has not revealed much information about the new pickup model or the electric Santa Fe, but sources suggest that Hyundai will offer an extended-range engine option (similar to the Nissan Kicks e-Power, where the engine is electric, and the internal combustion engine acts as a generator for the electric motor).
Hyundai aims to sell 50,000 units of this new pickup truck starting in 2029. The model is expected to become a mainstay for the brand. The pickup truck’s name could be the Ioniq T7, according to Hyundai’s trademark filings, with T standing for Truck.
With the lackluster sales of the new Hyundai Santa Fe, the introduction of an electric version could help boost its performance.
According to reports, the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe will be launched in the Vietnamese market in September this year. Earlier in July, a Hyundai Santa Fe of the latest generation was spotted at an emission testing center in Hanoi.
The Hyundai Santa Fe in Vietnam is expected to be offered in three to four variants, with two engine options: a 2.5L gasoline engine and a hybrid powertrain.
