New-gen Hyundai Tucson to break cover on July 13: India launch in August

With the growing craze for SUVs among Indian buyers, car makers are also betting big on this body style. Hyundai has confirmed that it will launch the new generation Tucson in the Indian market by the second half of this year. Recent reports confirm that the South Korean carmaker is all set to launch the new generation Hyundai Tucson in the Indian market by August this year. The official unveiling of the SUV will take place on July 13. The Tucson will sit in Hyundai’s line-up as its flagship offering. Once launched, it will take on the Jeep Compass and the Citron C5 Aircross.

The new-gen model gets sharp styling cues as compared to the outgoing version. The all-new Hyundai Tucson gets a massive grille, which is designed based on the parametric jewel theme. The grille further includes LED DRLs while the main headlamp cluster sits at the bottom of the bumper.

The 2022 Hyundai Tucson draws super-sharp lines and creases around the edges. The window area is also large, and the wheel arches take a hexagonal approach here. The rear-end also continues with this theme of razor-sharp elements.

The dashboard layout of the 2022 Tucson is also posh. An all-digital instrument cluster will be available along with a large touch screen infotainment unit. Also, the clean design has been used for the AC vents, which makes the cabin feel posh in every sense.

In the international markets, the fourth generation of the Tucson is on sale with a 2.0-litre petrol motor and a 2.0-litre oil burner. While the former comes with a 6-speed AT, the latter is sold with an 8-speed AT. Similar engine options can be seen on the all-new Tucson in India.
