Hyundai‘s all-new 2022 Tucson SUV is derived from a series of Hyundai Design Center concepts expressing its evolving Sensuous Sportiness global design identity. The new model will be powered by gasoline and hybrid models and sales will begin for the U.S. market in spring 2021, with plug-in models available in summer 2021.

Serene and Spacious: Tucson’s interior offers multi-layered forms that provide a feeling of openness and serenity. The broad ridge of the dashboard blends consistently with the doors, wrapping around front occupants, while a vertically oriented, fully integrated center fascia descends to the console. Ambient mood lighting is adjustable to 64 colors in ten levels of brightness.

Technology Abounds: The interior offers three new technologies, including a 10.25-inch full-touch screen exempt of hard buttons, a hoodless digital gauge cluster, and multi-air ventilation, a temperature-adjusting system providing diffused airflow on the front passengers. This indirect, diffusing ventilation system reduces potentially unpleasant airflow and is unique in the automotive industry.

Sensuous Sportiness: Tucson’s new exterior styling expresses Hyundai’s evolving Sensuous Sportiness design identity. The new SUV embodies what Hyundai designers call ‘Parametric Dynamics’ with kinetic, jewel-like surface detailing that emphasizes Tucson’s distinct identity in a crowded SUV segment.

Diverse Engine Line-up: Tucson offers both a Smartstream 2.5-liter, direct-injected and multi-port-injected gasoline engine as well as 1.6-liter, direct-injected, turbocharged hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains. The new 2.5-liter engine boasts a generous 187 horsepower at 6,100 rpm and 178 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,000 rpm, with a targeted combined fuel economy of 28 mpg with front-wheel drive. This 2.5-liter engine couples to an 8-speed automatic transmission for excellent efficiency and acceleration.
