About HYUNDAI TUCSON / IX35

The Hyundai Tucson is a SUV (C-segment in Europe) manufactured by the South Korean marque Hyundai Motor Company. This vehicle is in a segment below the Santa Fe and one position above the Creta. Outside Europe, this model is marketed as Hyundai ix35.

Like many Hyundai vehicles, the Tucson shares a platform with vehicles from Kia, the group’s other brand. Specifically, it does so with the Kia Sportage. The Hyundai Tucson stands out especially for its safety, achieving 5 stars in both Euro NCAP and Global NCAP tests. It also has a good reputation thanks to its multiple options and engines that allow 4-wheel drive (4WD).

There are 4 generations of this crossover. The second generation of this model was sold only under the name ‘Hyundai ix35‘. The current model is produced on the Hyundai-Kia N3 platform, and has numerous versions with standard hybrid (HEV) and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) engines.

Due to the rise of SUVs, the Tucson competes with a variety of similar vehicles. By price, the closest alternatives are the Kia Sportage, Opel Grandland X, Citroen C5 Aircross and Renault Kadjar.
