Newest Release Date for the 2019 Hyundai Tucson

With the third generation of the vehicle still going we are getting an updated 2019 Hyundai Tucson. The latest Tucson received its last generation retooling in 2016. The vehicle was released back then and showcased at the Geneva Auto Show. This forthcoming model is going to continue the line of vehicles that are going under the Tucson banner. We are confident that the details that have been released so far will make this car a fairly good one.

There are scarce details about the release date although many details about the car are already familiar. The vehicle will add some much needed changes. These are not going to change things so much but will give a nice refresh to the brand which needed some pampering. All in all, the updated version and the 2019 Hyundai Tucson is going to be available for next year. Even though the number in front of the name says 2019, expect to get the car by the end of 2018.

What Price can we Expect for the 2019 Hyundai Tucson?

Generally speaking, the 2019 Hyundai Tucson is not going to go beyond the current price so much. With this vehicle you are getting all the perks as the previous one. But you will add some much needed updates that will keep it afloat. In fact, we are liking this car even more by the second. The base price will be somewhere around $22,700 as a base MSRP. It will depend at which trim version you are looking at but the vehicle will not go too much beyond the limit of some of the established models.

It will also depend on the powertrain choice as that too can affect the price in a big way. You can expect all of the previous trim versions to make a comeback and be featured against. It all starts with the base and standard SE, then you have the Eco, Sport and finally the Limited as the highest tier version. The price for the highest trim and also your most expensive offer is about $31,175.

Latest Rumors about the 2019 Hyundai Tucson

There were a ton of rumors with the 2019 Hyundai Tucson’s entrance on the scene. First and foremost, most of the people were regarding this as a much bigger updated. Much of the people were expecting to see a lot of changes for the car. This includes them going as far as to state that the Tucson was supposed to get a new generation model. But the new generation vehicle seems implausible for the moment.

First of all, the current third-generation is fairly fresh so it would be illogical for them to change the car now and introduce an entirely new one. It has already proven to be stable and shows a lot of commitment that a lot of the other rivaling cars don’t. Thus the real through is that this is a minor refresh. An update which will not change the car significantly but will help it change just enough in order to be a competitive and stable car on the market.

Exterior Updates and Changes for the 2019 Hyundai Tucson

Generally speaking, 2019 Hyundai Tucson looks as bold as it ever did. It is a model which will build upon the successes that the previous model has already established and made for it. The hexagonal grill with vertical slats is still there and the front fascia has adopted an interesting and an upright look. The lower apron has horizontally orientated surrounds added, while the LED headlights are wider compared to before.

If you look at the profile, the changes made to the previous car will be kept. This includes the A-pillars that have been positioned a bit towards the back. But now, a sharply rising accent line has been added that runs the course from the front wheel arch and goes all the way to the taillights. It makes it look much more interesting compared to before and seemingly gives it a modern look.

The back end has arguably gone through the least amount of changes. The 2019 Hyundai Tucson keeps the slim taillights and the lower bumper from the last time. This Tucson is a car which has already adopted a more serious theme. The newest SUV is small but is very stable and makes it a very interesting and sharp car to have.

Is the 2019 Hyundai Tucson Adding new Colors?

For now it is not certain what colors will the 2019 Hyundai Tucson add. There is certainly an idea to add new color variants and it would be fabulous part of the new update to have them. The only thing is that they are not coming forward with any news about this matter. The most that we can hope to get is some optional ones becoming a standard choices. But there is also an idea that at least two new color schemes are going to be available. We shall see what will happen about this matter fairly soon.

Dimensions and Size

This time this is not going to be an issue as this is an updated and you rarely see size changes made for an updated car. This one is no different and it will keep the same kind of size which we had the last time. It includes a full length of 176.18 Inches and a wheelbase of 105.11 Inches. The height is 64.76 Inches and the width is still 72.83 Inches.

What Happened on the Inside of the 2019 Hyundai Tucson?

Some of the changes that the 2019 Hyundai Tucson are really hard to notice, but they are there. The interior will add some comfort settings and also update the technology which the vehicle is going to have. The soft touch material are going to make driving in this car a real joy. It is also expected that they add some new optional pieces, but more about that to come later. The Tucson is also one of the more spacious cars when it comes to the interior. It allows a lot of interior roominess and makes the passengers feel entirely relax. Let’s also not forget the 31 cubic feet of rear cargo space, which can also be expanded to a maximum capacity of 61.9 cubic feet.

The dashboard is also getting some updates but the layout remains mostly familiar. Actually everything looks much more premium which was the main idea behind the changes that came. All in all, this is not a bad look for the new 2019 Tucson and makes it one of the more favorable looking models. Some special additions which are not available for the Limited version and since the 2019 model include a 315-watt Infinity premium audio system which will also feature Clari-Fi Music Restoration Technology. Of course there is the Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Also the higher trim levels have upgraded fabrics on the door panel which makes it a lot more comfortable here.

Engine Choices for the 2019 Hyundai Tucson

There are going to be no changes when it comes to the powertrain offers for the 2019 Hyundai Tucson. These are all going to be completely transferred from the outgoing model. This means that the European version will offer two versions of the 1.6-liter gasoline engine, a naturally inspired one and a turbocharged version. The former one makes 133 horsepower while the latter is rated at 174 horsepower. With the base engine you get to use a six-speed manual transmission and the turbocharged one is going to use a six-speed manual or a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.

There are also three diesel choices available. A 1.7-liter unit making 113 horsepower and combined with a six-speed manual transmission. Next comes the 2.0-liter powerplant which creates 134 horsepower or 181 horsepower and is matted to a six-speed manual or the seven-speed DCT.

Unfortunately, the North American crowd will still only have two engine choices to choose from. We are talking about the already familiar four-cylinder engines, the first one is the 2.0-liter which makes 164-horsepower, while the secondary one is an optional choices, a turbocharged 1.6-liter, making 175-horsepower.

Top Speed and 0-60 mph

With no changes to the 2019 Hyundai Tucson engine lineup, there are going to be no changes when it comes to the performance. So the vehicle is still capable of getting to 0-60 mph in 8.2 seconds and a top speed of 110 mph is also available as before. There was really not need to make changes here.

2019 Hyundai Tucson Fuel Economy

The 2019 Hyundai Tucson is equally sticking to the same fuel economy. Even though this was a segment that could have been improved upon, they saved it for a different time. The car consumes 25 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway.

With the appearance of the new 2016 Hyundai Tuscon car you get crossover SUV vehicle that has styling and features as a priority to all the other parts that make this brand new car. By concentrating more on the aesthetics they have managed to produce a car which looks good in all senses of the world, while the added features make it more useful than you would have ever thought possible.

The Tuscon car is still not in the same league as RAV4 or the CR-V SUVs, but it has the potential to one day be a part of the upper echelon of the crossover SUV segment. In fact this is the smallest SUV available from Hyundai on the US market and as that it is quite convenient and offers you a different kind of a style that other vehicles cannot. The vehicle is also a great pick for any kind of a family obligation that you need as it comes with better handling, enhanced fuel economy and more interior spacing which make it a ride that your family will enjoy in whatever occasion needed.

Perhaps the greatest asset of the 2016 Hyundai Tuscon is the exterior design which makes it a great pick and provides a more attractive look which will bring a lot of fans to this brand. It also comes available in four trim levels this year, SE, Eco, Sport and Limited, which will also give you more options as your pick here. The released pictures were the first initiative that gave us an insight how well the Hyundai Tuscon looks now, but the real thing will come after its official release date. Read the rest of the review and find out what the new SUV vehicle form Hyundai can offer you.

2016 Hyundai Tuscon exterior

The previous look of the Tuscon car was more as an economy car design, but now the 2016 Hyundai Tuscon exterior is updated with a more upscale look. The vehicle has been sculptured a lot on the outside and has been given some features that will make it a bit more interesting and much more extravagant than before. It is still a Hyundai and you can notice it from a mile away as it has the trademark hexagonal grille the sharply assembled headlights placed on its very front. The changes may be radical but aren’t in any way so big that they could change to look and appearance all together, but the car has a different tone and aura about it that make it much serious looking than before.

Looking at the profile, we notice a short greenhouse and a dynamic design. It includes the newly applied 19-inch wheels which combined with the other additions give the vehicle a look of a restless forward motion design. The back has been changed a bit as well and includes some dynamic touches that are done with the use of some horizontal lines. This gives the vehicle a muscular tone altogether and all in all make the car much more expensive looking than it actually is.

Interior

The upscale design is also applied on the interior of the 2016 Hyundai Tuscon vehicle. The car has been given a completely new dashboard which is a lot more functional than before. In fact, as the designers from Hyundai state, the design has been inspired by the Eero Saarinen’s TWA terminal at JFK airport. Maybe an odd place to look for inspiration for the inside part of the car, but certainly something that works and that makes it into the inside of the vehicle completely well. The inside is much more elegant and simply designed, showcasing that sometimes doing something in an easier way can bring better results. The driver also has a much more clearer view on the road now which exemplifies the enhanced driving potential this car has been given. Finally, the seat design finishes and completes the upscale look of the car. With a bolstered design and new comfortable upholstery with leather trims is what the car gets to bring out the best in it.

Engine

Depending on the trim level, the 2016 Hyundai Tuscon will feature some different powertrain setups. But actually, the higher trim levels are a bit of a disappointment when it comes to the engine performance while the base version is here much more appropriate. The base engine is a164-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder which does better in around town driving. It particularly does well with the six-speed automatic gearshifter in sports mode. On the other hand, the Eco, Sport and Limited trims come with a 1.6-liter four-cylinder that produces 175-horsepower, yet the engine does not offer a great response value and thus the base version is a better one.

The car gets some pretty interesting specs when it comes to the EPA rating. The Sport and the Limited trim have a rating of 25 mpg city, 30 mpg highway, and 27 mpg combined, while the Eco has a performance of 26 mpg city, 33 mpg highway, and 29 mpg combined, which is due to the wheel size. The Eco and the SE have 17-inch ones while the Sport and the Limited use the 19-inch ones. The SE has a measured fuel economy of 3 mpg city, 31 mpg highway, and 26 mpg combined.

Price and release date

The 2016 Hyundai Tuscon will get its release date next year, meaning that you will be able to see the new vehicle in shops by the end of February. The price has already been calculated and you will be able to get the new Tuscon vehicle for a base MSRP price of 22,700 dollars, or 33,000 dollars which would be the highest price rate for the Limited trim.

2017 Hyundai Veloster is ready! With an impressive list of available features, distinctive styling, and a reasonable price, the new 2017 Hyundai Veloster is certainly a standout in its class. This three-door hatchback also comes with features such as lots of value for the money, and fuel economy for both of the available engines beneath its hood.

2017 Hyundai Veloster Release Date & Price

Meanwhile as Hyundai plans when its unusual three-door hatchback will go for sale, rumors within the confines of the industry allege its release will most likely take place sometime in the fall of 2017. The base model’s price should be expected at around the current model’s MSRP of $18,000 – a reasonable price indeed especially considering the features available.

Release Date: the fall of 2017

Price: $18,000

Review

Anyone smitten by a decently dimensioned car with great fuel economy ratings, and great value for the money should probably shop within the compact hatchback market. True, the number of cars offered here is dizzying, however, what makes the 2017 Hyundai Veloster a standout is its combination of all the aforementioned features plus a reasonable price. Again, its distinctive styling and decent functionality are a plus.

As can be seen, the 2017 Hyundai Veloster has lots to offer. How’s life aboard? You ask. Once you pass through the third door that is located on the passenger side and which offers easier ingress or you sit on the driver’s seat behind the wheel, you’ll definitely notice the value proposition we’ve been mentioning here. Standard features are awash inside and some of which are typically optional on other vehicles in this class.

Under the hood of the 2017 Hyundai Veloster are two engines. The four-cylinder 1.6L engine comes under the hood of the base model and is credited for offering 132 horsepower and 120 lbs. ft. of torque. Springing for the 2017 Hyundai Veloster Turbo, Rally Edition, and the Turbo Spec gets you a potent 201 horsepower – generating 1.6L four-cylinder engine that comes hitched to a six-speed manual transmission system.

There’re some gripes, though, that should probably get you thinking in the meantime as you decide whether you’d like a test drive or not. The bae engine is rather painstakingly slow. There’s a flurry of impacts into the cabin particularly in the sportier states of tune while cruising on rough surfaces, and the handling isn’t that inspiring.

But while the Hyundai Veloster 2017 meets the basic requirements of a compact hatchback, the segment isn’t without alternatives – better or equaling for that matter. Some of these include the Volkswagen Golf GTI, Mazda 3, and Ford Fiesta.

2017 Hyundai Veloster Changes on Interior & Exterior

Four trims are provided for the 2017 Hyundai Veloster: Turbo, Turbo Rally Edition, Base, and Turbo R-Spec.

Some of the standard features available for the base Veloster include a dual-zone automatic climate control, a rearview camera, full power accessories, a CD player, a USB port, a cloth upholstery, heated mirrors, cruise control, LED running lights and headlights, seventeen-inch alloy wheels, a seven-inch touchscreen interface, an auxiliary audio jack, a six-speaker sound system, Bluetooth connectivity, a folding rear seatback, and a height-adjustable driver seat.

The available Style package is offered as an option and comes with an eight-speaker Dimension premium audio system, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a panoramic sunroof, eighteen-inch wheels, the Blue Link emergency telematics system, a leather-wrapped shift knob, an upgraded interior and exterior trim, and foglights.

Upscale features available for the top-of-the-line models include unique wheels, driver lumbar adjustments, foglights, a leather upholstery, different styling elements, sportier suspension system, and a “Matte Blue” paint unique.

2017 Hyundai Veloster Engine Specs

Beneath the hood of the 2017 Hyundai Veloster are two mills: a 1.6L four-cylinder and a turbocharged 1.6L four-cylinder. The former comes equipped under the hood of the base model and is rated at 132 hp and 120 lbs. ft. of torque while the latter is offered for the Veloster Turbo, Rally Edition and the Turbo R-Spec.

2017 Hyundai Veloster 0-60 mph with the Turbo takes 7.7 seconds – a respectable acceleration for this class.
