With the New York Auto Show now in full swing, it’s hard to choose a standout vehicle we’ve yet to see before. The 2019 Altima is on show as is the new Rav 4 and Santa Fe. Speaking of which, its sister model, the 2019 Hyundai Tucson is also showing off what’s new.
From the outside, the model is not radically different compared to the outgoing version. However, there are a few changes here and there. This includes the refreshed front grille, headlights, taillights and revised front and rear bumpers.
Inside, changes are slightly more obvious. The 2019 Hyundai Tucson features a 7-inch infotainment system complete with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard this time around. It can also be had with Blue Link Connected Car on selected trim levels.
With that said, the 2019 Tucson will be sold in no less than five trims; Value, SE, SEL, Sport and Limited. SEL trims are fitted with 18-inch rims, while the rest can be had with 17- to 19-inch alloys rims. Limited models receive chrome trim while the Value and SE variants are exclusively available with a 2.0-litre motor. SEL, Sport and Limited are fitted with a 2.4-litre petrol engine.
Both engines are mated to a six-speed automatic gearbox. Regarding power, the 2.0-litre unit pushes out 164 horsepower and 205 Nm of torque while the beefier 2.4-litre unit is good for 181 hp and 237 Nm of torque.
