Performance
If there’s one thing Hyundai is widely celebrated for, it’s the commitment to excellent driving experiences - and almost nowhere is that more obvious than in the smooth-handling, fuel-efficient, and immensely pleasurable engines found on the 2018 Hyundai Tucson.
Engine Options
Tucson drivers can choose from two remarkable engine options: the incredible and powerful 2.0L 4-cylinder engine or the reliably-efficient 1.6L Turbo GDI Engine.
Those looking to maximize power without sacrificing efficiency should look to the 2.0L 4-cylinder, which can pump out an impressive 164 horsepower and 151 lb.-ft. of torque at a respectable 30 MPG highway - and excellent option for drivers searching for a reliable, dependable engine that’s sure to maximize efficiency whenever possible.
Those in the market for a bit more get-up-and-go, however, might want to look to the 1.6L Turbo, which kicks things up to 175 horsepower and 195 lb.-ft. of torque while reaching an impressive 32 MPG highway. Whichever you choose, each engine is designed from the ground up to maximize balance between horsepower and fuel efficiency for an impressive ride each and every time.
Handling
Thanks to a standard 6-speed automatic transmission, every model of the 2018 Tucson features superior smooth handling with efficient highway cruising coming naturally on just about any road. But for those seeking the most enjoyable ride possible, the available 7-speed EcoShift Dual Clutch Transmission offers a direct connection that seamlessly balances fuel economy and performance to deliver maximum results at your command.
Say goodbye to irritating bumps and vibrations on tough road surfaces thanks to the Tucson’s multi-link suspension, which confidently absorbs and disperses motion for an exceptionally smooth ride on just about any road condition. Independent struts combined with coil springs and gas-pressurized shock absorbers up front offer incredible rebound potential, while a natural power steering system helps you keep control, regardless of what might be ahead.
Sharp turns, meet your enemy - the 2018 Tucson offers Active Cornering Control All Wheel Drive, which allows for greater cornering capability and increased traction on curves by transferring engine torque and applying brake force to the rear wheel halfway through. This improves responsiveness and decreases wear, all while making turning that much simpler for the driver. Plus, a driver-selectable AWD lock allows you to control 50/50 torque split between front and rear wheels for added control at your command.
Fuel Efficiency
Part of the reason the 2018 Tucson is able to claim such high fuel efficiency is for its state-of-the-art aerodynamic design, which maximizes airflow around the body to minimize drag and increase fuel economy even on long drives - ideal for those trips to vacationland or perfect for a morning commute.
Add in the seamless controls of the 6- or 7-speed transmission and a dedication to simple shifting and you’ve got one Hyundai ready to power through mile after mile without needing to stop at every gas station along the way.
Design
Sleek, sophisticated, and stylish - the 2018 Tucson is many things, but what’s it’s definitely not is “unnoticeable.” Take your Tucson for a spin and see heads turn - it’s all part of what makes this model so special.
Exterior
When European-inspired style meets a distinctly North American attitude, the result can be fiercely sophisticated. Just take one look at the muscular, aggressive stance and sleek, stylish design of the 2018 Tucson and you’ll understand why onlookers can’t help but stare as your Tucson rolls down the road.
See clearly thanks to prominent hexagonal-shaped, bending LED headlights, which offer efficient performance and unmistakable class at first glance and can seamlessly anticipate a curving road ahead. These sit at the front of the strong, sculpted hood, which flows back seamlessly to a refined design along the sides and into the brilliantly bevel-cut twin exhaust tips with a standard rear spoiler to make your exit as impressive as your entrance, no matter what the competition might look like.
Stay cool while having fun in the sun thanks to the Tucson’s front solar glass, and keep your cargo free from prying eyes with rear privacy glass meant to maintain an air of mystery to whatever you might have in tow. And, with heated side mirrors complete with turn-signal indicators, you can safely power though frosty mornings with unshaken style. Add in unmistakably stylish 17-inch alloy wheels and you’ve got one model that could be as at home on the streets of Paris as it would in the plains of the American midwest.
Interior
Think it’s impossible to fit all the latest in interior design into a compact crossover? The 2018 Tucson will make you think again - and again, and again, and again…
Take total comfort and style to the next level with the available leather-appointed upholstery in black or beige, stylishly highlighting the available ventilated and heated power 8-way front seats and stretching all the way back to offer a comfortable repose for your backseat passengers. Available dual automatic climate controls let you and your passenger each find that perfect comfort level on any drive, while adjustable and available heated rear seats keep your passengers cozy through whatever adventure you may have in store.
Plus, thanks to 60/40 split rear seats and a cargo-conscious design throughout, you’ll have access to up to 61.9 cubic feet of space for your cargo, along with an available cargo cover to keep your privacy at the forefront. You pick the journey, and Tucson provides the space - letting you roam freely without leaving the important stuff behind.
Technology
What kind of adventurer leaves the tunes behind? Certainly not the driver of the 2018 Tucson, which offers a standard 5-inch color touchscreen audio system with an integrated Bluetooth® hands-free phone system with voice recognition for total control on the road. Stream your favorite audio entertainment with Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, and get where you need to go with available NavTraffic, which offers real-time updates to get you where you need to go quickly and safely - even in unfamiliar territory.
Or, for added class, choose the available 8-inch touchscreen with Infinity Premium Audio and Clari-Fi Music Restoration Technology to make that available HD Radio blast with precision you may never have thought possible on the road.
Safety
Modern drivers seek modern safety features - and when it comes to protecting your most important cargo, the Tucson makes keeping safe easier and more intuitive than ever.
Standard Safety
Surrounding airbags, seatbelts, and a smart design - all essential elements of any safety-conscious car. But what sets the 2018 Tucson apart from the rest is its standard rearview camera, which gives you an unmistakably comprehensive look at what lies just behind the corner when backing out of a tight space. That way, you can avoid incidents before they even happen - because an ounce of prevention, in this case, is worth several thousand pounds of cure.
Responsive Safety Tech
They say the best defense is a good offense - and on the 2018 Tucson, that means aggressive, adaptive safety features there to watch for the dangers you may not even be able to notice. Available Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Detection and Lane Departure Warning all allow you to drive with peace of mind, knowing your Tucson is scanning the streets for dangers and responding alongside you - a natural co-pilot to help you stay seamlessly safe on those distracting days.
