Hyundai has boosted the Tucson Active X's safety credentials for 2020 with SmartSense as standard. But has a price rise cancelled the value benefit out? Curt Durpiez finds out.
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...
UPDATE, 10 June 2021, 4:30pm: After this article was published, Hyundai Australia advised it is now working on a solution and "evaluations are progressing well with a good pass rate".

The 2022 Hyundai Tucson hybrid and plug-in hybrid won't come to Australia, the brand has confirmed – despite rapidly-growing sales of its closest rival, the strong-selling Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. A Hyundai Australia spokesperson told CarAdvice both the hybrid and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) versions of the new Tucson mid-size SUV won't be offered in Australia, thanks to European-only right-hand-drive production that would make them exceedingly expensive versus their rivals Down Under...

The fire risk recall notice for the Hyundai Tucson in Australia – issued last week for examples built from November 2014 to November 2020 – has prompted the company to create a dedicated page on its website to answer the most commonly asked questions. More than 93,000 current generation Hyundai Tucson SUVs were recalled last week because there was a risk they could catch fire even when parked...
We were downsizing from a much-loved 100 Series Toyota LandCruiser. It used to tow our now long gone caravan, and we thought was going to be challenging finding a smaller SUV we were going to be happy with. When we first went looking for a new mid-sized SUV we visited all the dealers for the vehicles we were interested in - including the Toyota RAV4, Mazda CX-5, Honda CRV, Kia Sportage, Nissan X-Trail and the Hyundai Tucson - and obtained brochures with specifications...
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...

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...
