‘More dynamic appearance’ for latest Hyundai Tucson
Hyundai Motor UK has announced pricing and specifications for the new Tucson, enhanced with a more dynamic appearance.
The new Tucson inherits the essence of the previous model's ‘Parametric Dynamics’ design language while evolving with a more refined and powerful aesthetic.
The front fascia features a redesigned front with thin, angular lines in the radiator grille, complemented by hidden ‘Parametric
Jewel’ daytime running lights (DRLs). The front bumper and skid plates are also new, extending seamlessly from side to side and creating a dynamic and visually wider stance.
At the rear, the skid plates are integrated into the bumper moulding and enlarged horizontally, reinforcing the impression of a wider wheelbase.
Redesigned alloy wheels on all models further accentuates the car's dynamism and enhance its overall proportions.
The interior of the new Tucson prioritises spaciousness and practicality, achieved through a redesigned dashboard with a new horizontal crash pad design that creates a sense of openness.
Physical heating and ventilation controls and a redesigned centre console with buttons for regularly used functions feature on the new centre console, whilst the automatic and hybrid powertrains feature a wireless charging pad housed in the armrest.
The new Tucson also receives an updated driver’s cockpit, with a 12.3” drivers supervision instrument cluster and the latest connected car Navigation Cockpit (ccNC).
