The Hyundai Tucson Elite is offered with a choice of three powertrains, a 2.0-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder driving the front wheels through a six-speed auto transmission at $44,100, a 1.6-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder in front- ($46,100) or all-wheel drive ($48,600) using a seven-speed dual-clutch auto and the same engine in a petrol-electric hybrid set-up, again offered in FWD ($50,100) or AWD ($52,600) but with the six speed auto transmission.
Standard equipment highlights include twin 12.3-inch screen display for multimedia and instrumentation, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, six-speaker audio (with digital radio), keyless entry and start (plus ‘Remote Start’), a leather-trimmed steering wheel, 18-inch alloys, heated exterior mirrors and all LED exterior lights, leather-appointed seats (heated in the front), built-in sat nav, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, auto rain-sensing wipers, rear privacy glass and a hands-free power tailgate.
And you can opt for an N Line package for $2500 which brings unique 19-inch alloy wheels, a specific grille, skid plates front and rear, revised bumpers, side skirts, gloss black elements, tinted tail-light lenses and twin exhaust outlets. Plus, inside there are leather and suede-appointed sports seats with red contrast stitching, gloss black and dark metal finishes, alloy scuff plates, alloy covered pedals and a steering wheel with perforated leather grips.
Crash-avoidance safety tech across the Tucson line-up includes AEB (with car, pedestrian and cyclist detection, plus ‘Junction Turning’ function), ‘Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance’, driver attention warning, rear cross-traffic alert and rear AEB, ‘Safe Exit Warning’, smart cruise control (with stop and go), a reversing camera (with on-command wide view function), tyre pressure monitoring and ‘Highway Driving Assist’ (lane centering). If a crash is unavoidable the airbag count runs to seven, including a front centre bag to minimise head clash injuries in a side-on impact.
Hyundai’s official combined cycle fuel-economy figure for the Tucson 2.0L is 8.1L/100km, 6.7L/100km for the 1.6L FWD, 7.2L/100km for the AWD and 5.3L/100km for the Hybrid.
