2016 Hyundai Tucson Specifications

From an owner’s perspective, the 2016 Tucson is reliable and economical. The 1.7 CRDi diesel is frugal, averaging 50 mpg in real-world driving. The cabin is well-built, with decent legroom, though the infotainment feels dated. Boot space is generous, and the ride is comfortable, if not sporty. Common gripes include sluggish acceleration in base models and road noise at speed. A practical, no-nonsense SUV that holds up well with age.

The 2016 Hyundai Tucson is a mid-size SUV offering a blend of practicality, comfort, and efficiency. Key specifications include a choice of petrol and diesel engines, front or all-wheel drive, and a spacious interior with a 513-litre boot.
