2020 Hyundai Tucson Review

The SE and the Value come standard with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (161 horsepower, 150 lb-ft of torque). The SEL, the Sport and the Limited get a 2.4-liter engine (181 hp, 175 lb-ft). Both engines are paired to a six-speed automatic. Front-wheel drive is standard on all trims, and all-wheel drive is optional.

The Tucson SE comes standard with 17-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlights, a height-adjustable driver's seat, a 60/40-split folding back seat, a 7-inch touchscreen, and a six-speaker sound system with a USB port and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration. Standard advanced safety features include forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and lane keeping assist.

The Value adds roof rails, heated mirrors, a power-adjustable driver's seat, heated front seats, keyless entry and ignition, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, satellite radio, and Hyundai's Blue Link communication services. You get similar features with the SEL but with the 2.4-liter engine, 18-inch wheels, exterior styling enhancements, dual-zone climate control (with rear-seat vents), and a second-row USB port.

From there, the Sport adds 19-inch wheels, LED headlights and taillights, foglights, a hands-free liftgate, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, wireless smartphone charging, and an eight-speaker premium audio system. The Limited includes all these features — though it reverts to 18-inch wheels — plus leather upholstery, upgraded door trim, a heated steering wheel, a 360-degree parking camera and a power passenger seat.

At the top is the luxe Ultimate, which further adds a panoramic sunroof, automatic high-beam headlights and wipers, an upgraded forward collision mitigation system, adaptive cruise control, an upgraded driver information display, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and an 8-inch touchscreen display with navigation.
