Hyundai Motors India has introduced the updated version of its flagship SUV – Tucson – on the first day of the Auto Expo 2020. The mid-cycle update for the SUV has been brought up with subtle design tweaks along with the BS6-compliant engines.

- The SUV has received minor design changes, especially at the front end.
- The updated Tucson is available with BS6-compliant petrol and diesel engines.
- The new model will be slightly more expensive than the old one.
The front fascia of the new Tucson looks refreshing, thanks to its new cascading trapezoidal grille, sharply-designed LED headlamps with integrated L-shaped LED DRLs (daytime running lights) and slightly tweaked bumper. The SUV also gets newly-designed alloy wheels, revised taillamp cluster and new reflectors on the tailgate.
Minor changes have also been made inside the cabin. The 2020 Hyundai Tucson facelift gets a new 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with an updated interface.
