“Our new Tucson represents the future of Hyundai’s full-spectrum eco-powertrain approach, offering
internal combustion, hybrid and plug-in hybrid models in a high-volume compact SUV. With all-wheel-
drive capability now added to new hybrid SUV platforms, customers no longer need to choose
between all-road, all-weather capability and outstanding efficiency,” said Thomas Schemera, executive
vice president, head of Product Division at Hyundai Motor Group.
The new Tucson appeals to those who actively embrace the integration of technologies with their
lifestyle; these open-minded consumers willingly embrace new technologies as way to immediately
integrate and enhance their lives. All-wheel drive capabilities are an example of technology facilitating
their active lifestyles that often includes inclement weather, adverse terrain and active outdoor
adventures.
Parametric Dynamic Exterior Design“We pursue innovative solutions in design and add emotional value to our product experience through
our Sensuous Sportiness design identity,” said SangYup Lee, senior vice president and head of
Hyundai Global Design Center.
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.
Tucson facilitates the integration of technologies with tech-savvy lifestyles; these tech-savvy
consumers adopt the latest gadgets to enhance their lives. Tucson’s integration of technology and
design is evident in innovative half-mirror type daytime running lamps (DRLs) that are assimilated
seamlessly within the parametric grille and only visible when illuminated.
Tucson’s side profile conveys an impression of powerful forward motion. The long hood and level
roofline coupled with a long wheelbase and short overhangs reflect a ready-for-anything dynamic
character. Crisp geometric angles and edges create a striking contrast between a sleek silhouette and
masculine wedge lines. The chrome line beginning from the side mirrors follows the arc of the roofline
with increasing width and subtly conveys speed as it reaches the C pillar.
The kinetic design theme carries over to the rear, where the full-width tail lamp incorporates half-
concealed triangular shapes that are clearly visible when illuminated, echoing the DRL theme in front.
In order to achieve the purity of this design theme, the Hyundai logo is elevated and integrated into the
glass, and the rear wiper is concealed beneath the rear spoiler.

Serene and Spacious INTERSPACE InteriorTucson’s interior, or ‘INTERSPACE’, offers sensuous, multi-layered forms that provide a feeling of
openness and serenity. This is a place where space, technology and information seamlessly blend.
The broad ridge of the dashboard blends consistently with the doors, wrapping around front occupants
like a geologic gorge, while a vertically oriented, fully integrated center fascia descends to the console
like a waterfall. Twin silver garnish lines streaming from the center fascia to the rear doors harmonize
neatly layered surface materials in complementary, neutral tones. Ambient mood lighting is adjustable
to 64 colors in ten levels of brightness.
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.
These features create a high-tech, fresh and exciting ambience, with cushioned materials on high-
touch areas, various material applications based on the frequency of interface, and a premium overall

presence. Tucson’s second-row seats feature fold-and-dive functionality for easily optimized
reconfiguration capability between passengers and cargo. For extra convenience, a release lever for
this function is also located in the rear cargo area.
The new Tucson for the U.S. only offers the long-wheelbase version of the global platform, which is
longer, wider, taller, and has a longer wheelbase than the previous generation. Moreover, passenger
volume increases by six cubic feet, to 108.2 cubic feet, and cargo volume has increased by 7.7 cubic
on the left or right side of the vehicle while reversing. If there is a risk of collision with an oncoming
vehicle on the left or right side while reversing, the system provides a warning. After the warning, if the
risk of collision increases, the system automatically assists with emergency braking.
Lane Keeping Assist and Lane Following AssistLane Keeping Assist (LKA) helps prevent accidental lane departure by sensing road markings,
automatically steering the vehicle if necessary. Lane Following Assist (LFA) takes LKA a step further
and may automatically adjust steering to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane of travel and can
help keep the vehicle centered on both highways and city streets.
Highway Driving AssistHighway Driving Assist (HDA) is a driving convenience system that assists drivers in maintaining the
center of the lane, while keeping a safe distance to the car in front and can help maintain vehicle
speeds according to posted speed limits on federal interstate highways. HDA works in conjunction with
the navigation system information, smart cruise and lane following assist.
Blind-Spot View MonitorBlind-Spot View Monitor (BVM) offers the driver an enhanced field of vision, displayed within the

gauge cluster. If the driver activates a turn signal, an image of the view from the corresponding side
mirror is displayed in the cluster display.
Surround View MonitorThe new Tucson uses cameras to provide the driver with an enhanced, bird’s-eye view of the car’s
exterior, giving the driver confidence when maneuvering into or out of spaces.
Ultrasonic Rear Occupant AlertUltrasonic Rear Occupant Alert (ROA) monitors the rear seats to detect the movements of children
and pets, reminding drivers to check the rear seats when exiting the vehicle; if the system detects
movement in the rear seats after the driver leaves the vehicle, it will sound the horn and send an alert
to the driver’s smartphone via Blue Link.
Safe Exit WarningTucson also offers Hyundai’s Safe Exit Warning (SEW) system helps detect cars approaching from the
rear while the Tucson is parked. If a passenger attempts to open the door when a car is approaching
from behind, visual and acoustic warnings on the cluster may alert the passengers.
Smart Cruise Control with Stop and GoUsing a radar sensor mounted on the lower front grille, Smart Cruise Control maintains a set distance
from the vehicle ahead by automatically adjusting vehicle speed as needed, even in stop-and-go traffic
conditions.
High Beam Assist (HBA)Eliminates the need for drivers to manually switch high beams on and off at night for approaching
vehicles in the opposite on-coming lane.
Driver Attention Warning (DAW)
Monitors a spectrum of driver-related characteristics to help detect driver fatigue and alert the driver.

Advanced Infotainment, Connectivity and ConvenienceCompact SUV buyers expect a lot from their vehicles. To meet these expectations, Tucson provides
seamless connectivity and generous protection from driving hazards. Hyundai’s consumer research
tells us that Tucson buyers want an escape from the daily stress of long commutes, heavy traffic, road
hazards and distractions. They also expect to stay connected wherever they go, and the Tucson
provides this capability better than any SUV in the market.
Tucson’s wireless device charging makes it easier than ever to keep devices charged when on the go.
Dynamic Voice Recognition is an advanced voice recognition system that utilizes simple voice
commands to conveniently perform specific controls for the cabin, including: temperature adjustment,
radio, hatch opening/closing, heated steering wheel, heated/cooled seats, and others. The system can
also assist with various points of interest (POI), weather status, and stock market data. The Tucson
navigation system offers split-screen functionality that enables multi-tasking capabilities. Tucson also
offers an eight-speaker Bose® Premium sound system.
Blue Link® Connected Car System
The new Tucson receives many Blue Link® Connected Car System enhancements. As with most
Hyundai models, Blue Link is complimentary for three years and includes features such as Remote
Start with Climate Control, Remote Door Lock/Unlock, Stolen Vehicle Recovery and Destination
Search by Voice and others. Blue Link features can be accessed via interior controls or through the
MyHyundai.com web portal, the MyHyundai with Blue Link smartphone app, the Amazon® Alexa Blue
Link skill and the Blue Link Google Assistant app. Some features can be controlled via Android
Wear™ and Apple Watch™ smartwatch apps.

to appeal to enthusiast buyers, with a more aggressive exterior appearance and interior details. N Line
will be coming later in 2021 with full details provided closer to that timing.
