Hyundai Tucson

The Tucson nameplate has had intermittent use in Hyundai’s SUV lineup throughout the last two decades but the latest iteration is a popular five-door, five-seat SUV that fills the medium SUV segment. Starting from $28,150 (before on-road costs) at the Tucson GO, the range includes variants like the Active X, Elite and Highlander. Throughout the range, petrol and diesel engines are on offer as well as front- and all-wheel drivetrains.

The Hyundai Tucson competes in the jam-packed medium SUV segment along with rivals like the Mazda CX-5, Toyota RAV4, Kia Sportage, Ford Escape, Holden Equinox and Nissan X-Trail.
