More than seven million units of previous generations of Hyundai Tucson have been sold in the global markets so far. The new Hyundai Tucson is powered by a 1999cc petrol or a 1997cc diesel engine. The former is mated to a 6-speed AT transmission, while the latter comes paired with an 8-speed AT transmission.
The petrol engine can generate a maximum power of 156 PS at 6,200 rpm and maximum torque of 192 Nm at 4,500 rpm, while the diesel variant can generate a maximum power of 186 PS at 4,000 rpm, delivering a maximum torque of 416 Nm at 2,000 to 2,750 rpm, claimed the company.

SmartSense with Level-2 ADAS capability has been made a standard part of the vehicle across the diesel and petrol variants. The vehicle also features six airbags, hill descent and assist control, and electronic stability control.
The OEM's HTRAC All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system, along with Multi-Terrain Modes (Snow/Mud/Sand), is also equipped in the car. Hyundai had earlier noted that the AWD ECU identifies traction conditions and driving state to control torque delivery. The hands-free boot opening is also one of the highlights of the latest vehicle.
