Hyundai is coming back with its original Tucson that replaces the current ix35 available on lease now which you can register your interest!
The new Tucson looks a lot like a Santa-FE, although its a slightly smaller version. As the SUV market is growing rapidly in recent years, Hyundai is getting up-to-date with its SUV range, with its most popular Santa FE and another best-seller the ix35. Tucson will look to develop the success with its striking design and enhanced technology as said by Tony Whitehorn, CEO of the Hyundai UK.
Compare this to the ix35, the Tucson is 65mm longer, 20mm shorter and 30mm wider. Tucson is the mid-size SUV offering greater interior space so the boot space has been dropped by 78 litres.
Here, we have gathered technical specifications for the Hyundai Tucson against its competitors. The Tucson is of similar size to the Renault Kadjar and is just a bit bigger than the Nissan Qashqai.
