2012 Tucson Blends Practicality and Efficiency With European Style
Combining practicality, efficiency, and European style, the Hyundai Tucson is a compelling choice for Canadian consumers seeking a value-packed Crossover Utility Vehicle (CUV). Launched as an all-new model for 2010, the Tucson was the first Hyundai vehicle to feature the company’s “Fluidic Sculpture” design language. Improvements for 2012 include larger front brakes for front-wheel drive models, a larger fuel tank for increased range, and the addition of heated front seats as standard equipment on GL models.
A NEW CHAPTER FOR HYUNDAI
The Tucson was the first Hyundai CUV (Crossover Utility Vehicle) to be designed and engineered in Europe at Hyundai’s Frankfurt-based design and technical centers. Featuring advanced weight-saving technology and efficient Theta II four-cylinder engines, Tucson delivers up to 6.2 L/100 km on the highway. Tucson includes leading safety technologies as standard equipment including standard Downhill Brake Control (DBC) and Hill-start Assist Control (HAC). Likewise, to keep passengers comfortable and informed, Tucson integrates features like an optional panoramic sunroof, touch-screen navigation, and a Bluetooth® hands-free phone system.
European Design
Key attributes of Hyundai’s Fluidic Sculpture design philosophy are found in the athleticism and sophistication in Tucson’s flowing lines, full surfaces, and muscular presence. This athletic style is highlighted by bold, dynamic graphic elements such as the Hyundai family hexagonal front grille, aggressive lower air intake, sculpted hood creases, swept back headlights, sleek greenhouse, and wraparound taillights. Chrome grille accents and door handles lend sophisticationto the top-of-the-line Tucson Limited.
