Compact SUV: This is how the new Tucson from Hyundai works

The Hyundai Tucson is set to be launched later this year as a competitor to models like the VW Tiguan and Toyota RAV4. The 4.56-meter long SUV has been built on a conventional platform and features a new design with distinctive folds and new light strips. The interior boasts a redesigned cockpit with a slim display strip and up to 17-inch infotainment screen.

The Tucson will be available with various engines, including a conventional 1.6-liter petrol, a hybrid, and a plug-in hybrid with 17.1 kWh battery and up to 81 km electric range. The hybrid models also feature a battery that can be used as a powerbank to run systems like the air conditioning and infotainment when the engine is off.
