Affordable and Aggressive
Hyundai have been taking huge strides forward in the automotive world, and with this redesigned Tucson they are showing their continued effort to prove affordable cars don’t have to be ugly.
With a more attacking stance, aggressive front end that resembles that of the CX-7 crossed with a Mercedes, and rear end not unlike that of a Lexus, they should be able to accrue a larger part of the ever growing crossover market. At the end of the day we all want to drive a vehicle we like to look at, not just a vehicle we can afford.
Given a Pulse
The current Tucson is not a visual masterpiece but is a very capable vehicle, I’ve never really thought much of the handling of any Hyundai I’ve ever been behind the wheel of, but as far as quality and comfort I can’t fault them.
Inside the current Tucson there is a real sense of space, it feels bigger than it is, and everything you need is at easy access reach, but aesthetically, it’s catatonic. The new interior has positively been injected with an adrenaline shot to the heart, or dash and a more up-to-date quality appearance; personally I would have liked the nav/radio screen with the climate controls tilt towards the driver to give that wrap around cock pit feel.
We’ll have to wait and see if they can deliver this level of quality and still arrive in around the $18k starting price tag of the current Tucson.
It's ALIIIIIIVE!!!!
