I testdrived this car a month ago and is very surprised with the looks compared to the last model went for facelifting. Stylish outside and flexible inside make the perfect suv. Overall, a very good car.» Read More -
First look very stylist both outside and inside.» Read More
But closer look, the dashboard trimmings seems rough and plasticky. The i30 is better with soft leather or rubber padding.
Engine has decent power though but little noisy and the sun & moon roof combo feels good. Ride comfort is good with high ride view.
But the pricing is not very attractive at $88,000 for the top end model.
» VERDICT
With urban 'off-roaders' garnering more likes than before, the Hyundai Tucson is our SUV of the year. Recently facelifted with a new headlamp design that gives its pretty face a more endearing appeal, the rear lights also get an update too with some LEDs included in the light cluster.
Inside, you get lots of equipment considering its price. Highlights include a USB port for mobile devices, dual-sunroof, reverse camera and cruise control.
While close scrutinising will reveal hard plastics in the lower part of the dashboard, the Tucson can be forgiven given its price. Overall interior quality is on par with its peers and the Tucson is just as spacious as the rest of its rivals.
In this latest guise, the Tucson receives a new block underneath the hood. The 'NU' spec unit may be slightly less powerful than before (151bhp vs 166bhp), but it claims a better fuel economy of close to 12km/L. Most of the time, the Tucson feels quicker than what the 11.5-second century sprint would suggest.
With the Tucson honed and perfected with each revision, we can now say it is no doubt one of the best SUVs in its class.
