The Evolution of Hyundai Tucson

Since its launch in 2004, the Hyundai Tucson has become one of the best-selling cars in the UK. Now in its fourth generation, which debuted in 2020, the Tucson has helped solidify the Hyundai Motor Group’s position as the fourth-largest manufacturer in the world. With its impressive sales figures, surpassing rivals like the Volkswagen Tiguan and the Kia Sportage, the Tucson has reshaped Hyundai’s image in the market.

The 2024 facelift brings a refreshed exterior design and an upgraded interior to the mid-sized crossover. Over the years, Hyundai has continuously improved its vehicles, not only in terms of quality and performance but also by identifying and targeting growing market segments, such as compact SUVs and crossovers. The latest generation of the Tucson showcases a bold and striking design, setting it apart from its predecessors.

Powertrain Options

All powertrains available for the new Tucson are based on Hyundai’s turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder petrol engine, each offering different levels of electrical assistance. The Tucson’s plug-in hybrid powertrain provides the widest range of powertrain options in Hyundai’s lineup. The range starts with a 157bhp petrol engine, followed by a 48V 157bhp mild-hybrid unit. A more powerful 212bhp mild hybrid is also available, with the range-topping option being a 252bhp plug-in hybrid offering an electric-only range of 39 miles and 271lb ft of torque.

Trim Levels

The Hyundai Tucson is offered in five trim levels: Advance, Premium, N Line, N-Line S, and Ultimate. Each trim level offers a unique set of features and options to cater to different customer preferences and needs.
