Hyundai Tucson first drive: Attractive affordable adventure with all the trimmings - Pocket-lint.com

After years of success with the Hyundai ix35, the company has decided to start afresh with its latest Tucson range. From the base model at £18,695 to the fully kitted top ride at £32,345 every Tucson offers lots for the money. We took the Tucson out on the road, and off-road, to put it through its paces. Hyundai Tuscon: Design do-over Hyundai has invested a lot of its time and effort into making the Tucson look good. We were told the new lines along the side of the car offer greater variation for a more dynamic appearance. It's fair to say the car looks good with that squared-off front and back giving a bit of aggression that wasn't found in the previous ix35. Some would argue this is missing in the main competitor, Nissan's Qashqai. To make another comparison, the lines ride up the side from front to back and sweep down in the rear, creating a compact back end. Internally, even on the base model, stitched finishes on the seats add a premium feel. Premium models and above feature mainly leather seating with faux leather in places of potential wear.
