Tech-focused drivers who need a versatile crew cab pickup truck will appreciate how this model enables seamless app access, in-vehicle calling, and real-time navigation. Its smart, connected features are ideal for those who want to stay productive and entertained on daily commutes, road trips, or while managing work on the go. In regions like Lakeland, FL, where unpredictable weather and busy schedules demand adaptability, this truck's blend of connectivity and practical design ensures drivers and passengers can stay in touch and in control, wherever the road leads.
Driving the Santa Cruz is a tech-enhanced experience powered by a 2.5L I4 engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission featuring SHIFTRONIC for responsive, controlled shifts. Electronic stability control and speed-sensing steering work together to provide a composed ride, while the AWD system enables confident traction in varied conditions. The trip computer and compass support efficient route planning, and the vehicle's electronic systems optimize throttle response for a smooth, adaptable drive—whether maneuvering through city streets or handling weekend projects.
Safety in this truck is driven by a suite of smart electronic features. The rearview camera delivers clear visuals for reversing and parking, while auto high-beam headlights adapt to nighttime driving conditions. ABS brakes, brake assist, traction control, and electronic stability control collaborate to keep the vehicle composed and help avoid accidents. Sensors monitor tire pressure, driver and passenger airbags provide protection, and strategically placed side-impact and overhead airbags add further peace of mind. These technologies allow the Santa Cruz to actively help prevent incidents before they happen, leveraging modern sensors and rapid electronic processing.
This truck comes well-equipped with features designed for modern life, including remote keyless entry for easy access, power windows and door mirrors, a rear window defroster, and fully automatic headlights.
