Contents of the review:
Debut of the third Hyundai generations Tucson took place in 2015 as part of the annual Geneva Motor Show. In comparison with its predecessor, the car has changed in all planes: the crossover received completely new design exterior, larger dimensions, improved and more comfortable interior, and also became more technological.
It is worth noting that the predecessor of the new Hyundai Tussan 2017 in the European and domestic markets was known under the name ix35. Now, regardless of the sales market, the car will be called "Tucson" - the name received in honor of the city of the same name in Arizona (USA). By the way, in the language of the North American Indians, the name "Tucson" means "spring at the foot of the Black Mountain."
Exterior Hyundai Tucson 2017 - 2018
The first thing you pay attention to when looking at the new Hyundai Tussan is its dimensions. The crossover has become noticeably larger than its predecessor:
- Length- 4.475 m;
- Width- 1.85 m;
- Height without roof rails - 1.655 m (with rails - 1.66 m);
- Wheelbase has 2.67 m.
The third generation Hyundai Tucson received a completely new appearance which successfully combines solidity and sport. In general, the car is made in uniform style with the latest generation of junior Hyundai ix25 and older Hyundai santa Fe.
The front of the car flaunts aggressive LED head optics, a monumental hexagonal false radiator grille and a spectacular bumper, where a small air intake and dual foglights are neatly written off.
The crossover profile is no less stylish and modern, attracting the eye with a falling roofline, a window line rising to the stern, massive wheel arches and graceful embossings running along the large side doors.
The Hyundai Tussan feed received large side light lamps with LED filling, a large tailgate topped with a small spoiler, as well as a neat bumper with a sports diffuser and a pair of trapezoidal exhaust pipes.
Those wishing to become the owner of the new Tucson can choose one of eleven body colors, as well as one of several designs of R18-R18 wheels.
Interior of the new Hyundai Tussan 2018
Following the exterior, the interior design of the car has also changed, which has an ergonomic, strict and at the same time modern design. The stylish multifunctional three-spoke steering wheel is endowed with a pronounced relief, and the dashboard, complemented by a 4.2 ”LCD screen of the on-board computer, is highly informative. In the central part of the dashboard there is a functional touchscreen monitor of the multimedia unit with a diagonal of 8 inches.
Directly below it is a double row of function buttons, and even below it is a stylish microclimate control unit, represented by a small display and a pair of functional twists. The interior of the car is mostly made of high-quality materials, but in some places there is still hard plastic, the presence of which does not spoil at all general impression from the interior design.
Hyundai Tucson is designed for five passengers, none of whom will face the problem of lack of free space, which is the merit of the increased wheelbase.
The front seats, although far from the standard, have a friendly profile and a sufficient number of adjustments. An electric drive and a ventilation system are optionally available, which is still a rarity in cars of this class. The gallery received a tilt-adjustable backrest, a separate air duct unit, an armrest and a heating system (optional).
The volume of the trunk has decreased slightly and is now 488 liters, which can be increased to 1478 liters by folding the rear sofa. A full-size spare wheel is hidden in the underground luggage compartment, as well as a small repair kit. It is important to note that the lowered backs of the rear sofa form a perfectly flat floor, which makes it easy to transport bulky cargo.

The compact crossover Hyundai Tucson was introduced by the Korean company in 2004. The car was equipped with gasoline engines 2.0 (141 HP) and V6 2.7 (175 HP), as well as a two-liter turbodiesel, developing 113-150 forces. Buyers were offered versions with mechanical box transmissions or with a four-speed "automatic", in the model range there were versions with front and all-wheel drive.
Only four-wheel drive cars with gasoline engines were supplied to Russia. Prices for Hyundai Tucson started at $ 26 thousand.
The crossover left most markets in 2009 or 2010 with the introduction of a new model, but, for example, in China, the car was sold for several more years. And in Brazil, Tucson is still produced - with two-liter engine capable of running on gasoline or ethyl alcohol. In addition to Korea and Brazil, cars were also assembled in China, Taiwan and Ukraine.

2nd generation, 2009–2015
The second generation of the Hyundai Tucson model was introduced in 2009. The former name survived only in the markets of Korea, the United States and some countries in South America, and throughout the rest of the world, the model was sold as.
A two-liter gasoline engine with a capacity of 164-166 liters was installed on the crossover. with. In the Korean market, a version with an 184-horsepower diesel engine of the same volume was also offered, and in the USA - with gasoline engine 2.4, developing 170-182 liters. with.
Hyundai Tucson was offered with both front and all-wheel drive, the cars were equipped with a manual transmission or a six-speed "automatic".
Any more or less serious car company with ambitions has models that can be used to track the past, present and even the future of the manufacturer. If not for Hyundai Tucson, the Korean company would hardly have become such a significant player not only in Russian market... What did we know about Hyundai ten years ago? Inexpensive copies of Japanese cars, mediocre build quality, a clear focus on the CIS market, where everything that can potentially move and costs 400 thousand rubles can be sold well, regardless of appearance, power and build quality. With the advent of this model, everything changed somehow overnight.
What to expect from the new Hyundai Tussan 2016-2017
New Hyundai Tucson 2016-2017: price for Russia
Fifteen complete sets, three engines and a price spread of almost a million rubles. Against the background of other foreign manufacturers, which scatter from the Russian market, as if on a signal from a launching rocket, Hyundai looks like almost the only adequate importer of cars, not counting those models that are already assembled in our country. Tucson 2016-2017 model year is not assembled here and not for our market in principle. The car is produced, except for Korea itself, in the Czech Republic. This is the main European foothold for Koreans, and I never had to complain about the quality of the Czech assembly. The main market for the model is, of course, the USA. For them, it was developed in principle, Tucson meets all American notions of a fashionable car, and in the States they have already ceased to treat Hyundai as a refugee with an eternally ingratiating look.
A number of solid models sell well in the United States, and the price for them is not dumping at all. Far from dumping. Hyundai Tucson 2016-2017 model year since the summer of 2016 in the States is selling well at a price of 24 thousand dollars. This is good money, it is expensive and prestigious. So prestigious that Hyundai set prices for the new model at the level of the 2016-2017 Chevrolet Camaro. Camaro, which is prayed for in the States. So that.
SE is the most economical package for the United States, however, it accommodates everything without which a modern mid-range car cannot be sold. What is only the basic configuration. These are 17-inch aluminum wheels, adaptive head optics with LEDs, a rear-view camera, a multifunction steering wheel, folding rear seats in a 60/40 proportion, equipped with a retractable armrest, and a lot of little things that will only tease our buyer. By the way, the Honda HR-V is a thousand dollars cheaper, and the Mazda CX-5 is cheaper than the Hyundai Tucson by $ 700 in basic trim levels. We have witnessed the birth of a new flagship of the global automotive industry. Everything is serious.
The names of the complete sets and their meaning in our market are somewhat different than in the USA. For example, any official dealer Hyundai in Moscow will start a detailed offer for our model with the Start package. A little more than a million, 1,099,000 rubles, for a car with a very striking design, you see, in itself sounds tempting. The start has a basic set, different from the American one. On our Tucson in a new body will be installed a 1.6-liter gasoline engine, which twists 132 forces with an average fuel consumption of 5.6 liters. The drive in this configuration is only front, but completely free of charge, the buyer gets a metallic color, aluminum wheels, foglights and a pressure sensor in the wheels. It's hard to remember even one crossover of this class that can be bought with such equipment for a million. The checkpoint for a million is only a mechanic, but there is a help system in the base when starting up the hill. Comfort is also at the level of a serious crossover, a class higher. This is a full power accessories, head unit with an audio system, on-board computer and a multimedia steering wheel strewn with system control buttons.
For 1,269,000 rubles, they will kindly offer an identical package, with front-wheel drive, but the crossover will be driven by a two-liter gasoline engine with a capacity of 150 horses and an average consumption of 6.1 liters per hundred. The maximum speed of the two-liter Tucson is 181 km / h, but in addition to the engine, this car is distinguished by an automatic six-band gearbox and advanced safety options. 6 airbags in a circle, anti-lock braking system, stability control system and assistant start downhill. All-wheel drive Hyundai Tucson in the Start configuration can be purchased starting from 1,339,000 rubles. They only come with a two-liter 150-horsepower petrol engine and a 6-speed automatic transmission.
The only complete set with a robot box was the Comfort variant. They ask for 1,474,000 rubles for it, and such cars are sold with a 1.6-liter gasoline engine with a turbine that sucks 177 forces out of it. All-wheel drive Hyundai Tucson with this engine and robotic box accelerates to a hundred in 9.1 seconds, and maximum speed limited to 201 km / h. At the same time, fuel consumption does not exceed 6.5 liters per hundred. The car has passive cruise control, light and rain sensors, climate control, parking sensors, and a heated steering wheel is added to the comfort means. A very rare option, I must say, and very popular in our area. It is not in vain that Hyundai is closely observing the requirements of the public - in the States, hardly anyone will be tempted by a heated steering wheel, but we have a good incentive to buy.
But what about diesel fuel? There is also a diesel engine, however, one. This is an economical and powerful turbodiesel with a volume of two liters and a capacity of 185 hp. In the Travel package, a car can be bought for 1,749,000 rubles. The car will go with a six-speed automatic and four-wheel drive. The comfort is all right here.
Here are just the main bells and whistles included in expensive configurations:
- leather interior;
- air conditioner with climate control;
- light and rain sensors;
- integrated navigation system;
- preparation for telephony - bluetooth, playful little hands;
- keyless access;
- start from a button;
- circular parking sensors;
- foglights and daytime running lights.
With such a variety, the car is going to take root in our challenging market. How this whole farm works in a complex can be judged by the reviews of the first owners, and especially interesting opinions come from the United States.
Salon and technical characteristics of the updated Hyundai Tucson 2016-2017
Courageous, self-sufficient Hyundai Tucson in a new body is already one wheel in the garage of premium crossovers. Peter Schreier, Hyundai's chief designer, certainly deserves the deepest respect. As a token of gratitude, the Koreans made him the executive director of the company. At a press conference, Schreier said that the Hyundai Tucson model has extensive plans and will surely sell well both overseas and in Europe. If we proceed at least from external data updated crossover indeed, it is difficult for him to refuse convincingness. Athletic build, muscular sides, hexagonal grille and completely new optics. The superb proportions, which Peter somehow calculates in his German head, made the gray Hyundai Tucson almost a premium model.
Visual perfectionism is emphasized by excellent driving qualities and technical characteristics, and the interior is made in the traditions of the most expensive crossovers premium segment. Just look at the range of signature colors Schreier offers for the new Hyundai Tucson. Boredom - away. Peter left the pan and dull mourning colors to his competitors. Now a new Tucson can appear from around the corner in sky blue. Unusual? Perhaps. But the dimensions of the car are not that space. The SUV has become 65 mm longer, 30 mm higher and wider, and the wheelbase has increased by the same 30 mm. There are 12 signature colors to choose from, including five metallic and three pearl. Each of the colors goes well with the strong and convincing body of the car, while black remains for the hardened preservatives.
Matrix, this is the name of the new concept for the construction of the interior of Tucson. At a glance, the interior looks simple, but this is only a first impression. Hyundai interior designers managed to make every millimeter of planes and every cube of interior volume work for the driver and passengers. Inside, the car shows a rare friendliness. If we start from the surfaces, then, all the panels are made of soft plastic of excellent quality, only the visor above the tidy is hard. No cracks and crickets, the assembly is solid and solid. Touch screens in most budget cars look like shoulder straps on a warrant officer with 20 years of service. Here, the 8-inch screen is located so that no glare was noticed even on a sunny day. It reads perfectly, and the sensor itself is responsive and intelligible.
One suspicious American complained that the display was unhygienic. It turned out that fingerprints remain on the display. Well, yes, they will, if you do not buy disposable wet wipes for three cents and do not wipe your hands after each visit to McDolds. The fat is especially tenacious there.
Leather is only offered in top trim levels, and cheaper cars can be equipped with a high-quality leatherette interior in five colors, including beige and red inserts. In general, you can achieve both austerity and efficiency from the salon, as well as emancipation and almost home comfort. Black leatherette, for example, is of high quality and durable, pleasant to the touch and without any inserts, the interior looks like the interior of a diplomat's car or the president of a jewelry holding. The same interior, but with red accents, radically transforms the first impression of the car and no longer wants to say "you" to the driver.
In any interior design in Hyundai Tucson it is very easy to lose something if it is not a mobile phone. Lots of pockets and boxes, niches and drawers, which will especially appeal to family drivers with children. Then, after three years, you can unexpectedly find sweets and markers in the pockets. The panoramic roof has not yet been illuminated in the trim levels, but even without it, the interior is spacious both in the front and in the back.

Asphalt adhesive. Included
Hyundai Tucson - not sport car, but the way it is glued to the asphalt, even frank sports coupes do not. On smooth asphalt, the car shows miracles of handling, skipping forward cars unless at maximum speed and in acceleration up to a hundred, and even then not every business sedan will accelerate to a hundred in nine seconds, and Tucson - please, with any transmission, even with a robot, even with an automatic machine, even with a handle. The car behaves well in turns - on smooth asphalt, even with squeaky tires and obvious centrifugal overloads, the one and a half ton body invariably keeps the trajectory without thinking to deviate. Excellent stability. Especially on the optional 19 '' wheels and low profile tires.
What I want to say in the end ...
The primer will also not put Tusson in the ground. Here, however, 17-inch look more advantageous. standard wheels... They are less prone to shaking and process small irregularities even before the vibration reaches the reconfigured suspension. Driving the Tucson is a pleasure. Of course, there is no need to expect much information from the electric power steering, but the car has a multi-mode system for adjusting the effort and feedback on the steering wheel. It is worth switching it to sport mode - the steering wheel becomes elastic and more intelligible, comfort mode allows you to ignore even the primer. And on a dirt road all-wheel drive mode will come in handy. Despite the fact that the suspension travel is small and the wheels are hung diagonally pretty soon, the situation is completely corrected by the electromechanical center differential lock. You can't mix dirt on Tucson, but he copes with the relief with a top five. The suspended wheel does not even have time to make a revolution, as the electronics distributes the torque over the three remaining points and from the passenger compartment you may not even notice the wheel hanging. Tusson drives as if nothing had happened.
The new Hyundai Tucson is a completely different car, it is a new stage in the development of the Korean company and the fact that the car appeared on the Russian market in such a wide range of engines, boxes and complete sets is a significant and deliberate move of the company.

From the article you will find out where the main brands of cars are produced. Hyundai creta, Solaris, Tucson, Santa Fe, Elantra, IX35, I40, which of them are produced at factories in Russia, and which in other countries, but for our country.
The geography of production is expanding
Long gone are the days when certain brands of cars were produced in any one country.
Earlier, Audi was produced only in Germany, Chevrolet - in the USA, Peugeot - in France and so on.
But the geography of production is expanding, new factories are being built in other countries, needs are growing and, as a result, sales are growing.
This approach allows us to saturate the market and provide everyone with cars.
Below we will dwell in more detail on Korean cars Hyundai (Hyundai), which are produced in many countries of the world (including in Russia).
General information about Hyundai Motor
Hyundai Motor Company - South Korean car manufacturer having a wide the lineup and widely known in the world.
The founder of the concern is Chon Chu-Yong. It was he who opened the company in 1967, which was originally only part of a large project, and in 2003 it became an individual unit.
Initially, Hyundai Motor focused on passenger cars, but there was also one truck Ford.
Over the next thirty years, the company developed and expanded the scope of production. Five years after the opening, the production of Hyundai cars started, and two years later the Hyundai Poini model appeared.
By the 80s of the last century, the production volume reached 50 thousand cars per year. In 1998, a significant event in the history of the company took place - Kia Motros was taken over.
The name Hyundai is translated from Korean as "modernity". Actually, this word became a motto for manufacturers who tried to embody new trends and tendencies in each model.
Sales figures
Hyundai Motor owns many car assembly factories not only in South Korea, but also in other countries of the world - the United States. Turkey, Czech Republic, RF, China and others.
Finished cars are distributed to thousands of car dealerships and are sold to tens of thousands of people every day.
In 2010, sales totaled nearly 1.75 million vehicles and profits reached 32 billion.
In 2016, more than 145 thousand cars were sold (only in Russia). Generally speaking, this figure is ten times higher. Many models are assembled or assembled on the territory of the Russian Federation - Sonata, Asssent, Elantra, Santa Fe and others.
A major project was launched in 2007. It was then that they managed to conclude an agreement on the construction of the Hyundai plant in St. Petersburg.
Already in 2010, the first cars rolled off the assembly line. The plant's capacity was enough to produce about 200,000 cars annually.
In 2011, the plant assembled Solaris and Rio. Simultaneously with the plant in St. Petersburg, the production of component parts began, thanks to which in 2010 Hyundai sales in Russia amounted to 87 thousand vehicles.
Concern Hyundai Motor entered the market in 2004 hybrid cars by introducing the Click / Gets Hybrid model.
A year later, the lineup was replenished with another "hybrid" - an offshoot of the Accent model.
Already in the first four years, about 800 Click hybrid cars were produced, and by the end of 2008, government structures received about 3.4 thousand "hybrids".
In which countries and where is Hyundai Solaris assembled, factories in Russia
Hyundai Solaris is well known to domestic motorists.
Today it is produced in South Korea, Turkey, the United States and many other countries.
With the appearance of the plant in St. Petersburg, it is assembled in Russia. Before the opening of production, all lines were checked for the fact of the quality of the finished product and the absence of defects.
As soon as all checks were completed, the production itself started.
Peculiarity Hyundai plant Motor in Russia - a responsible approach to production and strict adherence to technology.
This is not surprising, since more than half a billion dollars were invested in the construction of the site.
A little earlier, the same factories were built in a number of other countries - in the United States, Turkey, the Czech Republic, India and others.
The main feature of the plant in the Russian Federation lies in the complete production cycle, when the entire assembly process takes place on the territory of one country, from the production of spare parts to the adjustment of the electronic components of the machine.
On the territory of the plant there are workshops where spare parts are manufactured, as well as welding, assembly and painting of the machine.
There is also a stamping workshop, in which special attention is paid to product quality.
An important feature of the Hyundai Motor plant in Russia is the bias towards process automation. This figure reaches 80 percent, which allows us to speak with confidence about the quality and reliability of finished cars.
Few people know, but in the two workshops of the plant (painting and welding), people do not participate in the production process at all. All the work is done by the so-called "transformers" - robotic manipulators. By the way, this technique is also manufactured at the Hyundai plant.
An obligatory stage of production is the control line, where the machine undergoes quality control. If problems are identified, the vehicle is sent for revision.
In 2016, the production of Hyundai Solaris in Russia was temporarily suspended, but, according to company representatives, in March 2017, the Russians will be presented with an updated version of the second generation car, which will begin to be assembled at the same plant from January this year.
In which countries and where is Hyundai Greta (Kreta) assembled, factories in Russia
The next model worthy of attention is the Hyundai Creta. Previously, cars were produced only for the Asian market, and production was established in India (the city of Chennai).
Already the first year of sales has shown the success of the new model. Even before the start of the issue, the number of applications exceeded 70 thousand. In addition to Asia, Hyundai Creta is sold in South American and African countries.
Interestingly, the Indian plant was designed to produce no more than 7 thousand cars per month.
Due to such restrictions, customers had to stand in lines for a long time, and the waiting time sometimes reached 6-8 months or more.
It is not surprising that the issue of capacity expansion has been given key attention. Already in the first year of production, it was announced about the future increase in the limit to 10 thousand cars per month.
As for the Russian market, the Hyundai Creta appeared here later. Production has been established at the already mentioned plant in St. Petersburg. The launch of the first line started in August 2016.
From the conveyor, the cars go to the dealer network and are sold. The main difficulties are associated with the need to reconfigure the equipment for a new model, because earlier at the plant on this line another model was produced - Solaris.
But now Solaris production has been moved to a different, more advanced line (see above).
On average, the St. Petersburg plant plans to produce 4-5 thousand cars per month. The total volume of Hyundai Kreta cars, which should come off the assembly line, is 200 thousand units.
This is enough to cover the needs of not only Russia, but also neighboring countries.
It should be noted that Russian version Hyundai Creta has a number of differences. The main feature is the adaptation of the machine to Russian roads... This means that the ground clearance has been increased, a stiffer suspension has been installed.
There are limitations in the choice of motors. Two engines are available for the Russian market - 1.6 and 2.0 liters. In this case, you can choose four-wheel drive or front-wheel drive.

In which countries and where is Hyundai Tussan assembled, factories in Russia
In recent years, crossovers have gained unprecedented popularity. They are roomy, have good cross-country ability, have a solid appearance and are very economical.

2018 Hyundai Tucson interior
The Koreans did not disclose the details of the interior arrangement of their new generation Hyundai Tucson crossover. Instead, at the pre-premiere screening, they promised that the materials will be more expensive, the assembly is better, the level of ergonomics is higher. Considering what we have already seen in the new Santa Fe or the same compact crossover ix25, there is every reason to believe in what was promised about Tucson. But the company admitted that even with an increase in the wheelbase, they decided to improve the cabin capacity by sacrificing the space in the luggage compartment. As a result, provided the backs of the second row are raised, the volume of the trunk will be only 513 liters. Not much for its class, but still enough. In addition, the backrests of the second row can be lowered, resulting in more than twice the space for loading luggage.
