The Boulder Concept previews Hyundai\u2019s first fully-boxed body-on-frame architecture \u2013 a new platform confirmed to underpin a production midsize pickup truck to be delivered by 2030.<\/p>\n

\"Hyundai<\/a><\/p>\n

The concept was developed by Hyundai Design North America, the brand\u2019s Southern California-based studio, with a focus on off-road capability and utility.<\/p>\n

\"Hyundai<\/a><\/p>\n

The exterior is shaped by Hyundai\u2019s \u201cArt of Steel\u201d<\/strong> design philosophy, which draws on the material properties of steel \u2013 strength, formability, and durability \u2013 to inform its sculptural surfaces and precise lines.<\/p>\n

\"Hyundai<\/a><\/p>\n

The overall silhouette is an upright two-box form with a commanding greenhouse and dual safari-style fixed upper windows.<\/p>\n

\"Hyundai<\/a><\/p>\n

Coach-style doors open access to both seating rows, while a low-profile roof rack incorporates steel webbing between the rails for additional cargo capacity. The exterior finish is rendered in Liquid Titanium.<\/p>\n

\"Hyundai<\/a><\/p>\n

Among the concept\u2019s off-road focused-features are 37-inch mud-terrain tires (37\u00d712.50R18 LT), a tailgate-mounted full-size spare, and approach, departure, and breakover angles optimized for uneven terrain.<\/p>\n

\"Hyundai<\/a><\/p>\n

A double-hinged rear tailgate opens from either side, and a power drop-down rear window accommodates long loads. Reflective material is integrated into exterior elements such as tow hooks and door handles to aid identification in low-light conditions.<\/p>\n

\"Hyundai<\/a><\/p>\n

The interior prioritizes physical switchgear \u2013 knobs and buttons \u2013 within easy reach, alongside robust materials at high-wear touchpoints such as grab bars.<\/p>\n

\"Hyundai<\/a><\/p>\n

The cabin also features fold-out tray tables. A software-driven real-time off-road guidance system is available to assist navigation over difficult terrain.<\/p>\n

\"Hyundai<\/a><\/p>\n

Hyundai has confirmed that future body-on-frame production vehicles are set to be designed, developed, and built in the United States using Hyundai-produced U.S. steel.<\/p>\n
