There will always be times... ...when it seems the whole world is waiting for some sunshine. The cold reality of the everyday, the grind of routine seems inescapable. Even though the real you feels that just around the next corner, or maybe at the end of the next street, something great could be waiting, it’s hard to believe. You need something more, a catalyst or motivation for the inspiration which will let you really be yourself...
There will always be places... ...where you feel over regulated, constrained, restricted to the ordinary. The result is that you just want to go, achieve something, to be yourself. Where? Only you can decide, maybe somewhere different or somewhere special. When? Anytime the feeling takes you. Why? Because inspiration can strike anywhere and at any time. Whenever and wherever it does, Tucson is ready to add power to that inspiration.
Tucson, inspiration into action Tucson gives you the freedom to seize the moment. Dynamic performance coupled with rugged individuality makes the change up from the mundane to the outstanding something simply natural. To indulge that part of you which revels in accomplishment. Stylish, supple and surprisingly capacious and accommodating, Tucson liberates the spirit of adventure while keeping you firmly in control.
Easy going, easy living Easy interaction is vital to enjoying life. That’s why the ergonomics of the Tucson have been designed to be immediately instinctive. Every control easily to hand, the dials right under your eyes, all working in harmony with your responses. The result is a new sensation of clarity, a precise feeling of precision engineering delivering a smooth, satisfying relationship between man and machine.
Relax, just take control Even the most spontaneous getaways are better when they are shared and you are prepared. With Tucson it takes only minutes to load anything, or maybe everything, you need. Whatever your sport, just fold the rear seats and you have room for your personal equipment. No time to book a hotel? No worries, the front seats fold backwards to provide instant overnight accommodation. And, as you will be delighted to discover, there is well thought out storage space for all the little necessities; maps, CDs, beverages and sunglasses all fit neatly in place, right where you need them.
The going has never been easier Or for that matter, the coming back. Hyundai engineers have provided Tucson with long distance comfort and performance ingeniously matched with exceptional economy. As relaxed and long legged on the highway as it is compact and manoeuvrable in town, and tough when the going gets rough, Tucson adapts effortlessly to fit every phase of your lifestyle. Choose your perfect combination from two trim levels, varying in diverse options, and rediscover the nomadic spirit in your soul.
Go ahead, explore the limits Part of feeling so relaxed is the knowledge that you are secure. Tucson combines traditional Hyundai toughness, starting with a rigid structure with computer designed impact diffusion and crumple zones, with state of the art technology to deliver driving excitement with a profound sense of comfort and confidence. For instance the sensor activated technology which co-ordinates the six standard airbags with the seat belts. But this technology is not merely confined to the passive safety systems, it acts actively to ensure you enjoy maximum confidence in any road conditions. For example, the dashboard-mounted button lets you manually “lock” 4WD for a 50/50 torque split. In addition to this the Tucson offers standard (GLS) ABS with the option of ESP (Electronic Stability Program) to maximise safety while keeping you dynamically and enjoyably in complete control. No matter which variant of Tucson you choose, you’ll enjoy a fresh sense of self-assurance built directly upon real confidence. ABS Power-assisted 15-inch vented discs with floating two-piston calipers and pad wear sensor at the front, with power-assisted 14-inch solid disc (2WD) 15-inch solid disc (4WD)rear, four-wheel, four channel ABS, control the braking, even in slickest conditions. ESP The ultimate in control, ESP (Electronic Stability Program) electronically senses exactly where power and braking need to be increased or moderated. The result is precise steering and braking control (see diagram), positively controlled to take the stress out of the worst weather conditions.
Seat belt pre-tensioners Tucson comes fully equipped for passive safety. De-powered front airbags, side and curtain airbags, serve for maximum accident protection. Additionally the front airbags and seat belt pre-tensioners work together, preventing injury from the belts while optimising their performance.

The power to free your true self Spirited driving demands stamina, personality and power. Tucson delivers all three, adding real satisfaction and excitement. Your choice of engines is exceptional, a superb 2.7 litre V6 129 kW petrol engine with automatic transmission. Also a 2 litre 4 cylinder 104 kW CVVT (Constantly Variable Valve Timing) petrol engine with 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission. And, for Diesel fans, the 2.0 CRDi 82.5 kW common rail diesel engine with 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission. All are proven over millions of test kilometres, each has a whole different sphere of appeal. But all come with the legendary staying power and reliability of Hyundai as standard. All have been perfected to give you the perfect blend of economy and smooth, willing, power which perfectly complements real living. All are matched perfectly to the automatic or manual transmission of your choice. But you won’t really know how good that can feel until you actually experience them. So what’s stopping you?
Full-time 4WD Just test drive Tucson’s InterActive Torque Management four-wheel-drive system and you’ll marvel at the level of control. While it normally routes up to 100 percent of the available power to the front wheels, as road conditions or torque demand changes, it senses the differences, and directs the power according to the best combination for all four wheels.

Tucson. Powering the great memories to come There will always be days of grim routine reality. But so what? With Tucson the sun is shining up ahead and the memories of great times are just the prelude to even more achievements. Think about it next time inspiration strikes. Think of the potential. No matter if your getaways are alone and personal, or in the company of friends or family, if you are properly prepared they are the stuff great memories are made from. You, inspiration and Tucson, what a team...
Technology that puts the environment first At Hyundai Motor, a greener world is a more than a dream: It’s an emerging reality thanks to the new technologies we are pursuing to optimize product life cycles and minimize the adverse impact of our vehicles on the environment. To help conserve scarce natural resources and reduce the pressure on landfills caused by needless waste, Hyundai Motor has been aggressively advancing its recycling program and implementing cleaner manufacturing concepts. Since the early ‘90s, Hyundai Motor Company has been making systematic efforts to improve its recycling program and in 1996, the company began a three-year national research project to develop a comprehensive program for the dismantling and recycling of end of life vehicles.
Today, all automotive parts are systematically coded to facilitate recycling at the end of the vehicle life cycle. Moreover, in the design of complex assemblies, especially plastic assemblies preference is given to a single material composition in order to facilitate disassembly. All Hyundai Motor plants meet the environmental management standards defined by the International Standards Organization and are ISO14001 certified. Accordingly, the company’s plants are making systematic efforts to reduce fresh water consumption, maximizing the use of reusable packaging whilst minimizing the use of restricted hazardous materials such as chromium compounds and mercury to cite but two examples. Furthermore, efforts are being stepped up to use more recycled steel, glass and plastics in the manufacturing of new car parts. Hyundai Motor suppliers and engineers are now working under new environmental directives: increase the recycled content of new cars whilst minimizing the use of raw materials and waste in production processes.
