Cargo

SUV refinement meets open-bed versatility.

The SANTA CRUZ delivers next level versatility thanks to the flexibility of an open bed, so you can easily load it up with gear and get to your next adventure.

Integrated sliding and lockable tonneau cover

The standard sliding and lockable tonneau cover is lightweight, yet durable, with a strong aluminum construction that can hold up to 220 pounds. It offers desired privacy when closed and then rolls neatly into a canister in order to maximize your cargo area.

LED bed lighting

Top and side-mounted standard LED bed lights help illuminate night-time loading and unloading.

 

Lockable under-bed waterproof storage compartment

The standard underfloor storage is sealed to keep water and dirt out, so no matter what activities you have in mind your items will stay clean. Conversely, you can also use the storage for wet and muddy items, so your cabin stays clean — easily wash away dirt with the 1-way drain plug.

115 V open-bed outlet

A standard and convenient 115 volt power outlet can be accessed from the open bed.

Auto-levelling rear suspension

The standard auto-levelling rear suspension automatically adjusts the PALISADE to maintain a consistent ride height level when you are carrying a heavy load, ensuring great ride quality.

5,000 lb towing capacity
Confidently tow your weekend gear with up to 5,000 lbs of towing capacity.

HTRAC™ All-Wheel Drive with multi-terrain control modes

For the ultimate in handling, performance and traction, enjoy our HTRAC™ All-Wheel Drive system. It allows you to select the appropriate traction setting that best suits your current driving conditions with three dedicated terrain modes.

  

Performance

Traction Mode

Traction mode offers special traction tuning for SNOW, DEEP SNOW, MUD or SAND, optimizing available traction in those special conditions. Traction mode optimizes the Traction Control System, Electronic Limited Slip Differential and Electronic Stability Control for best traction in the chosen condition.

SNOW and DEEP SNOW mode

To help keep you in control and prevent slippage, you can seamlessly switch between SNOW and DEEP SNOW modes to give you the right amount of driving force in winter conditions.

MUD mode

Optimized for muddy, rutted or uneven terrain. In MUD mode, sensors can instantly detect wheel slippage and automatically redirect torque to the wheel with the most traction, so that you can keep moving despite the hazardous driving conditions.

SAND mode

Optimized for loose sand or deep gravel. Special algorithms developed for sand driving secure the right gear and help ensure each wheel receives the right amount of torque at the right moment to deliver optimal tire traction.
