Introducing the all-new Hyundai TUCSON
Sitting firmly in the mid-size SUV segment of the new car market, the TUCSON is bigger and better than ever before, with a seismic shift towards state-of-the art technology as well as revolutionary interior and exterior design.
Perfect for those with growing families, the TUCSON is a highly practical and capable vehicle. It's available in two-wheel and four-wheel drive with petrol and hybrid versions available, so no matter what your regular journeys are like, there's a version to suit you.
Despite its reasonably large size, it's affordable to buy and own thanks to its next-generation powertrains. Safety technology is up there with the best-in-class, with a tremendous amount of advanced driver aids fitted as standard.
Design and Practicality
Undoubtedly one of the most charismatic and distinctive designs of any SUV, the exterior look of the all-new TUCSON is cutting edge to say the least. The large, unique front grille accentuates what is a muscular design, full of sharp angles and expressive lines.
LED lights add to the premium design of the TUCSON, and if you like something a bit more sporty, N Line variants are available, featuring a more pronounced frontal design and body-coloured wheel arches.
Practicality is one of the TUCSON's many strong suits, with 620 litres of boot space which is among the very best in its class.
As with all good SUVs, the rear seats fold in a 4:2:4 ratio to create a gigantic load area of up to 1,799 litres, with folding levers located in the boot to make the process easier.
Technology and Safety
Both interior technology and advanced safety features are strong suits of the all-new TUCSON.
While the three-zone climate control, heated and ventilated seats and the excellent 12.3-inch touchscreen entertainment will grab your attention, it's the little things like Shift By Wire (SBW) that really make the difference. This ingenious system allows you to change your drive mode effortlessly while driving.
The TUCSON delivers a best-in-class safety package that includes:
- Crosswind Stabilisation Control
- Highway Drive Assist
- Surround View Monitor
- Lane Keep Assist Blind Spot Collision Warning
- Intelligent Speed Limit Assist
Engines and Performance
Where powertrains are concerned, Hyundai have been hard at work making sure there's a choice of engine and transmission to suit every driver of the TUCSON.
Among the economical hybrid variants in the range, there's one 1.6-litre purely petrol model, which produces a decent 158bhp and can get you from 0 to 62mph in 9.9 If you opt for the petrol, you'll get a six-speed manual gearbox and an official economy figure of 41.5mpg.
If you're looking for the ease of use of an automatic gearbox, mild hybrid (MHEV), full hybrid (HEV), and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) TUCSON models are all automatic as standard.
It's excellent to drive around town thanks to its light steering, and there are plenty of drive modes to keep you entertained and safe during your journey, including Normal, Sport, Eco, and Snow.
