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.

It pairs a serenely composed ride with clever tech, making it the kind of luxury SUV that lets you enjoy the good life without shouting about the badge.
