The Tucson is yet another 7-seater SUV from Hyundai's stable. The Tucson deserves repute for its wonderful engineering and well presented aesthetics. At the heart of the Tucson is the powerful turbo charge, inter cooled 5 speed manual transmission diesel CRDi engine that guarantees the performance and silence of a petrol engine. The Tucson delivers an amazing 112 Ps of power that brings the Tucson to life on both rough terrain and city roads as well. With its large 16alloy wheels, and R16 tubeless radials it offers comfortable manoeuvrability of 5.4 meters as turning radius.
A premier feature of this model is the electronic 4-wheel drive system that transfers up to 50% of power to the rear wheel during demanding driving conditions. Tucson also comes equipped with a front McPherson Strut Suspension along with the Multi Link Rear Suspension to ensure smooth rides on bumpy and potholed roads.
The Hyundai Tucson has a host of features to reduce noise and vibration to suit an SUV of its kind. The body has multi curvatures to various spots, so that the entire vehicle offers as much less resistance to the wind flow even at high speeds.
A lot of attention has gone into designing the interior of the Tucson. Passengers feel comfortable the moment they enter the spacious cabin. There is spacious legroom for both the driver and the passenger, ensuring extra comfort to both during bumpy and long distance rides. The distance between the front and the rear seats is also sufficiently adequate.
Every attention has been paid to provide every amenity in the interior of the Tucson. Along with forward folding front passenger seats, there are rear seat back hooks, front armrests, shopping hools, and cargo side pocket also. The exterior presents a sporty and active look with amenities like roof rails, dual muffler, side garnish, two tone body colour, under body skid plate and fog lamps.
For added comfort, there is luggage compartment tray, power outlets, central door locks, room and cargo lamps, central door lock, 2 tier trays, lower crash pad tray, glove box partition, under seat tray, and tray under door grip too.
The Tucson has several safety features also to ensure secure journeys. The Tucson comes with ABS and ventilated front discs to ensure firm braking. Additionally, the vehicle features dual airbags, load limiters, and dual pre-tensioners.
Driving this vehicle is also very comfortable as the driver is presented with an extended forward view of the front windscreen and the rear windshield. This provides better visibility around the vehicle, which is extremely useful in crowded conditions, and even on rough and uneven terrain.
About the Hyundai Tucson, I am really proud of my new possession. I was really glad to know about the 4WD system, and I put the Tucson to grind, when I took it to the interiors. I was really amazed by the output of the engine and the performance of the electronic four wheel drive. The suspension was put to ultimate test, I am satisfied with its performance. Also, I am impressed by its fuel economy, as it gives me around 8 kmpl in different driving situations.
