Hyundai gave the Tucson a bolder look for this generation, trading softer curves for sharper creases and a more assertive front fascia. The result is a compact SUV that feels genuinely competitive against pricier rivals, both in presence and in substance.
A 2.0L 4-cylinder engine serves as the standard powerplant, offering 164 horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque through a 6-speed automatic transmission — a setup tuned for smooth, efficient daily driving. Buyers wanting more punch can opt for the available 1.6L Turbo engine paired with a quick-shifting 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, adding noticeably more responsiveness to the mix. Available all-wheel drive brings extra confidence for changing road conditions.
Inside, the Tucson offers a thoughtfully arranged cabin built to comfortably seat 5 passengers, with a driver-oriented dash layout and impressively low interior noise for the class. Cargo space behind the rear seats ranks among the best in its segment, while split-folding rear seats add extra flexibility when hauling larger items. Well-equipped trims bring a panoramic sunroof, heated front and rear seats, and a hands-free smart liftgate that opens automatically when the key fob is nearby.
Hyundai backs the Tucson with an impressive list of available driver-assist features, including forward collision warning, lane departure warning, blind spot detection, and rear cross-traffic alert. Paired with standard stability control and a full airbag system, the Tucson delivers genuine peace of mind for daily commuting and road trips alike.
Compact on the outside but thoughtfully engineered within, the 2017 Hyundai Tucson brings real substance to the crowded small SUV segment. See what sets it apart in person — schedule your test drive today!
