With an aim on reiterating SUV leadership aspirations, the new-generation of the premium SUV Tucson still continues to be the carmaker's flagship vehicle in the Indian market.

Its looks, features and performance have been redefined in this 2020 model. All of these have been upgraded keeping in mind the evolving needs of today's customers and their rising aspirations.
