New 2025 Hyundai Tucson Facelift First Look!

The 2025 Hyundai Tucson, marking a significant update in Hyundai’s SUV lineup, presents a blend of modern design and enhanced technological features. The latest iteration of this popular model has been revealed, showcasing both exterior and interior upgrades, along with a range of engine options to suit different market needs.

Exterior Design and Features
The 2025 Hyundai Tucson sports an evolved look with Hyundai’s “Parametric Dynamics” design language, giving it a more contemporary appearance. This includes a newly styled grille and “Parametric Jewel” headlights. The vehicle’s dimensions have slightly increased, with the standard Tucson now measuring 4.64 meters in length, and the N Line version at 4.65 meters. The width stands at 1.86 meters, height at 1.66 meters, and it has a wheelbase of 2.75 meters. The rear design remains familiar, retaining the ‘fang-like’ lighting setup, but with a cleaner bumper design.

Interior Design and Comfort
The interior of the 2025 Tucson has undergone significant changes, moving away from the previous model’s design language. The new interior has adopted a more minimalistic and flat design, with the gear lever relocated to the steering column, making way for a wireless smartphone charger and cup holders in the central console. The previous model’s curvilinear shapes have been replaced with simpler lines, and the dual 12.3-inch screens have been integrated into a single unit. The steering wheel design is more minimalistic, and the vehicle promises better acoustic insulation for enhanced comfort. Some critics, however, have expressed disappointment with these changes, preferring the outgoing model’s interior design.

Engine, Performance, and Safety
The 2025 Tucson comes with various engine options, including a 1.6-liter Turbo gasoline engine delivering 180 horsepower and a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel engine producing 184 horsepower. Both engines are available with either front-wheel or all-wheel drive. A conventional hybrid version, based on the 1.6-liter engine, significantly increases power to 235 horsepower. The standard engine is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder, producing 187 horsepower, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.

Technology and Features
Technology-wise, the Tucson offers Hyundai’s latest infotainment system with connected services, smartphone integration via Bluetooth® 5+ technology, and embedded navigation software. The model also features advanced driver assistance systems like blind-spot monitoring. Additional features include a head-up display, seat heating, and a fingerprint authentication system, along with an enhanced package of safety and driver assistance functions.

Release Date and Pricing
While an official release date for the 2025 Hyundai Tucson in the United States has not been announced, it is expected to hit showrooms in late 2024 or early 2025. The starting price is anticipated to be competitive, offering good value in its class compared to rivals such as the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Mazda CX-5.

Overall, the 2025 Hyundai Tucson aims to offer a fresh and modern design, coupled with technological advancements and a range of powertrain options, making it a strong contender in the compact SUV market.
