Hyundai Tucson 2020–2024 car dimensions: 4630 mm long, 1865 mm wide and 1665 mm high. Unladen weight is 1,510 kg. Braked towing is 1,650 kg.
The cabin has an 8-inch touchscreen standard with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay on lower grades, upgrading to a 10.25-inch unit with navigation on higher ones. Dual-zone automatic climate control appears on mid and upper trims while base models use manual air conditioning. Basic cruise control is standard, with adaptive smart cruise and stop-and-go on higher grades. Forward collision-avoidance with automatic emergency braking, lane keeping assist and a reversing camera with guidelines come standard. Blind-spot collision warning and rear parking sensors are trim-dependent, becoming standard from mid grades upward in most markets.
Boot space measures around 620 litres with the rear seats up on petrol models and expands to roughly 1799 litres when the 60/40 split seats fold flat. Hybrid versions lose a little space under the floor. A dual-level cargo floor and remote seat release levers help load everyday items or longer cargo without fuss.
Braked towing capacity sits at 1650 kg on most global petrol and hybrid models, rising to 1900 kg on some diesels, with unbraked limited to 750 kg. Trailer pre-wiring is standard and a tow hitch is available as an accessory. Payload is typically around 600 kg depending on engine and drivetrain.
The Tucson suits light work or weekend trailer duties but lacks heavy-duty cooling or reinforced suspension as standard equipment. Drive modes and available AWD help with varied loads, yet it remains a family SUV rather than a dedicated workhorse.
The cabin is roomy with good leg and head room for five. Higher grades add dual-zone climate with multi-air mode, ambient lighting, soft-touch surfaces and leather. Front seats gain power adjustment, heating and ventilation on upper trims. rear seats recline and heat on top grades. Acoustic laminated windshield and body sealing keep noise low. Panoramic roof is available on select models.

Routine oil changes and inspections fall every 7,500-15,000 km or 12 months depending on market and driving conditions. Severe use shortens intervals. Cabin and engine air filters, brake fluid and other items follow the schedule in the owner’s manual.
The generation earns a full five stars from Euro NCAP with strong adult and child scores. A full suite of SmartSense active systems is standard or widely available, covering collision avoidance, lane support and attention monitoring. Multiple airbags and electronic stability aids are fitted across the range.
