Excellent, very attractive car. Drives superbly. I previously had the XC40 — that was fine, but the BMW suits me better in pretty much every respect.

It’s our second Tucson — a diesel manual and a petrol automatic. I can only confirm that our next one in 2027 will be 99.9% a Tucson again. Gorgeous, pleasant, economical and sporty. Top choice.
