2016 Hyundai Tucson - News & Observer
Over time, Hyundai has made great strides in producing competitive small and tall wagons, but the latest Tucson could be the automaker’s breakthrough model in this class. With each successive effort, the Tucson has closed the gap with its pack peers to a point where it would be foolish not to include it on your to-be-considered list. For 2016, the argument in the Tucson’s favor gains more traction. Stylistically, the junior Hyundai has a shape that mimics the larger Santa Fe. In the process, the look and feel matures a bit while adding a new level of sophistication. Hyundai refers to the Tucson’s shape as a continuation of its “Fluidic Sculpture 2. 0 design theme,” but whatever you call it, it’s impressive. The Tucson gains three inches in overall length while the front and rear wheels are set one inch farther apart. The rear access portal is larger for easier loading and unloading cargo, while the interior volume with the split-folding rear seat in place has increased by an impressive 20 percent. Where the Tucson doesn’t fall short is the redesigned interior. The Tucson’s motivational capabilities depend on your chosen trim. Source: www.newsobserver.com
