Hyundai Tucson range Reviews | Overview

COMPETING in what has come to be the greatest automotive current market segment in the world – medium SUVs – is no longer about implementing the ‘lift and separate’ philosophy to a medium sedan.

 

To really triumph, you will need an aspirational car that satisfies every single function and fits every single selling price point, while also remaining potential-proofed towards shifting customer anticipations.

 

Toyota’s present RAV4 has revealed that if you create the zeitgeist – a hyper-efficient, massively capable, reducing-edge medium SUV – then consumers will clamour for it like hardly ever ahead of.

 

In that context, Hyundai’s all-new medium SUV – the fourth-era NX4 Tucson – wants to convey consumers to the lawn. If the new Tucson has any hope of reining in its main Japanese rivals (RAV4 and Mazda’s CX-five), then it have to have impact.

 

As soon as every single variant and drivetrain selection turns into obtainable, the new Tucson will be challenging to ignore. But does the volume-promoting 2.-litre entrance-wheel drive – envisioned to make up 60 for each cent of overall volume – supply enough of a know-how story to satisfy Hyundai’s upmarket aspirations, specifically in gentle of the simple fact there will be no hybrid model obtainable in Australia for the foreseeable potential?
