Reviewers
say the 2014 Hyundai
Tucson's firm handling, powerful engine option and upgraded interior make it a
viable competitor among compact SUVs.
The Hyundai Tucson received an
interior refresh for 2014, and test drivers say the materials are generally of
good quality and the cabin's layout is functional. They also note that the
gauges are clear and that the climate control dials are large and accessible.
Critics say the Tucson's back seat is small and that rear-seat passengers have
limited visibility due to its sloped roof. However, test drivers say the front
seats have plenty of room. Cargo space is also a bit small when compared to the
class. The Hyundai Tucson
comes equipped with a six-speaker stereo, Bluetooth, a USB port with an iPod
cable and an auxiliary input. Optional features include a rearview camera, a
panoramic sunroof, proximity key, push-button start, dual-zone automatic
climate control, a touch-screen audio display, navigation and HD Radio.
Reviews: "Overall, the Tucson remains one of
the most pleasant crossovers at this price. It's up to date in almost every
respect, and its manageable size makes it an enticing alternative to larger
rivals." -- AutoTrader
"The Hyundai Tucson is a compact
crossover that delivers stylish sheetmetal and composed handling. Limited cargo
space and rear seat room mean that some buyers might be better served by a
larger rival - or Hyundai's own Santa Fe Sport - but those simply searching for
a dapper all-weather runabout will likely find it a solid choice." -- Left

"The Hyundai Tucson compact crossover
SUV for 2014 stacks up admirably when compared to such well-established names
as the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4 and Ford Escape. To compete, Hyundai equips the
Tucson with cutting-edge engine technology, stand-out styling and a long list
of standard and available equipment. It does all this with an impressively
competitive window sticker and an unrivaled 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain
warranty." -- Kelley Blue Book
"Tucson offers a great blend of
maneuverability, comfortable interior accommodations, and a plethora of
standard features, making it a solid pick in this segment.” -- Consumer Guide
(2013)
