The updated Hyundai Tucson Highlander is not only in its third generation but it's also a very polished contender in what is one of the most hotly-contested segments on the planet.
There's a lot to like about a front-wheel-drive Tucson with luxury levels of kit and a relatively reasonable price tag. But the naturally aspirated petrol engine with its six-speed auto transmission, well, that's another matter entirely.
The Tucson has been a big hit for Hyundai, but will a small change be enough for it to stay a sales success? Paul Maric finds out.
Hyundai has already shown an updated Tucson overseas, but there’s a way to go before the current model clocks off, presenting an opportunity to check out the Tucson Active X before it scores a refresh.

While we wait for the new-generation Toyota RAV4 to debut in Australia, it's worth taking a look at what's on offer right now. Which of these mid-sized SUVs should you consider? Let us help you decide!
We all know your rationale when it comes to buying a medium-sized SUV with all-wheel drive. You want a vehicle with more room for the kid(s) – or kid(s) that are coming – but you also have in the back of your mind that one day you might need to go off-road. Anybody that's done any proper off-roading knows that the type of off-roading you think you're going to do, compared to the type you'll actually do, is very different...
Ten of the best and most popular mid-sized SUVs go head-to-head, but there can only be one winner.
Both the Skoda Karoq 110TSI and Hyundai Tucson Highlander are built around the same ‘utility vehicle’ philosophy, but despite differences in their makeup, they arrive at very similar conclusions. We’ve put together the highest spec of each available in Australia to see if Europe’s challenger brand, Skoda, has what it takes to topple the might of Hyundai...

Beijing Hyundai has revealed a China-specific version of the Tucson SUV, which gets unique styling and features compared to the global version offered in markets like Australia. The Korean-Chinese joint venture is pitching the vehicle as a "fourth generation" model, though it appears the '2020' Tucson for China is merely a reskinned version of the car currently on sale...
The next-generation Hyundai Tucson has been spied again, this time with less camouflage at the front. Compared to the vehicle spied last week, we have a much clearer look at the overall frontal design, which is very closely aligned with the Nexo fuel-cell crossover available overseas...
I purchased a new Tucson in November 2015 as a novated leasing package through work. This worked out well for me due to my line of work and repayments. The Hyundai replaced my 2011 Ford Fiesta Zetec, which had a myriad of issues. From the get-go, it was issue after issue. The interior door handle came off. The Bluetooth would drop out constantly...
Firstly, I would like to acknowledge CarAdvice for creating a great initiative for car aficionados and car owners alike to share their experiences, positive and negative. The model in review is a 2015 Hyundai Tucson Active X. For eagle-eyed readers, they would note that this is one of the four-star rated Tucsons...
In short, this is a fantastic car. We've only had it one week, but we absolutely love it. We did consider a Mazda CX-5 but it would have been over $8000 more than the Tucson while also lacking some of the features. And a small sunroof as opposed to the moonroof in the Tucson and no powered tailgate. The diesel engine is powerful and the styling and look of the car is great...
I honestly thought I would never see the day I would buy a Hyundai. This isn't to say I didn't think the brand had come a long way since the era of the Excel and Accent. I must also say that I am/was a station wagon man prior to having a family. I know debate rages about SUVs not being a driver's car and I get that...
