The design of the Hyundai Tucson is quite impressive, with the style of its "senior" SantaFe with ribs running along the body of the car connected from the raised edge of the air intake containing the fog lights, creating an aerodynamic design typical of the philosophy "Fluidic Sculpture 2.0".

With a wheelbase of 2,670mm, Hyundai Tucson has a spacious interior for both rows of seats. In addition, the passenger and luggage compartments are arranged according to the HMI (Human Machine Interface) philosophy with scientifically arranged function buttons, making all seating positions convenient and comfortable.

In terms of performance, Hyundai Tucson 2017 CKD is equipped with 3 engine versions, fully meeting the needs of many customer groups.

First is the 1.6L T-GDi direct-injection Turbo engine with a maximum capacity of 177 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 265Nm at 1,500 ~ 4,500 rpm. This engine version comes with a 7-speed DCT dual-clutch transmission. This is also the first time in the mid-range Crossover segment to be equipped with such a sporty engine and transmission. In particular, this version is equipped with a high-performance ASD shock absorber system to enhance the vehicle's stable operation.
