The company hasn’t revealed much details of the new Tucson; however, the official images suggest that it will be the long wheelbase version. The LWB Tucson rides on 2,756mm long wheelbase, which is claimed to offer more space in the second row and bigger boot compared to the European-spec model.

While the global-spec model features the 19-inch alloy wheels, the India-spec model rides on 18-inch wheels. The slightly smaller wheels and taller tyre sidewalls should improve its ride quality on the Indian roads.

New Design Language

The new Hyundai Tucson will also mark the debut of the brand’s new ‘Sensual Sportiness’ design language, which will also be offered on the new Venue and the Creta facelift. The DRLs are fully integrated into the uniquely styled Parametric front grille. The DRLs are unnoticeable among the dark chrome features when the car is off. While driving, the edges of the geometrically designed grille light up in 5 different, jewel-like triangles of light on each side.

The LED headlamp setup and turn signals are integrated on the lower front bumper, which also has a pair of small air ducts. There are strong creases and lines all around the body. The rear profile has a set of quad tail-lights connected by a full-width LED bar. The lower bumper has unique diamond texture and a faux skid plate.

New Hyundai Tucson Interior & Features

The new Tucson comes with all-new and feature-loaded cabin. It features a clutter-free cabin with minimal buttons on the dashboard. It has a flat dashboard with a carved in lower part for airy and open feel. It comes with a dual-screen infotainment system that has a 10.3-inch display for climate control & other functions. The infotainment system is compatible with Android Auto, Apple CarPlay and two-device Bluetooth connectivity.

The new Tucson will also come with features like Hyundai’s BlueLink connected car tech, a digital instrument console, a panoramic sunroof, automatic air conditioning, cruise control and others. The SUV is also likely to come with ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) with features like adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking, lane assist, blind spot monitoring and others.

Engine Options

The international spec model comes with multiple engine options including a 2.5L inline 4-cylinder petrol, a 1.6L turbo petrol, a 1.6L petrol with an electric motor. The India-spec model is likely to retain the existing 2.0L turbo petrol and a turbo-diesel engine.
