Review: New Hyundai Tucson Turbo – For The Simpler Things In Life, Now Boosted
The top half of the dashboard is also new, complementing the new infotainment screen with a higher quality look and feel (soft touch leather with double stitching wrapping is only available in the Tucson Turbo). We once again sing praises for the ease of use in the new infotainment system. Maps and navigation are loaded within seconds, while music is played immediately through the Android Auto connection. No need for a SIM-card or apps for mirroring, as this is truly the best integration of key apps from our mobile phones into a vehicle.

Hyundai Tucson 1.6 T-GDI and 2.0 R-Series CRDI – Punching Above Their Belts
It seems that all everyone can talk about these days are compact crossovers based off of small hatchback platforms. It’s difficult to fault them given that they’re the perfect fit for urban life, featuring both compact dimensions and extra practicality over the majority of passenger cars.
