Our expert ratings are based on seven comprehensive criteria: quality, safety, comfort, performance, fuel economy, reliability history and value.

You can interpret our ratings in the following way:

: Outstanding vehicle. Only the most exceptional vehicles achieve this rating.

: Very Good vehicle. Very good and close to being the best vehicle in its class.

: Good vehicle. Decent, but not quite the best. Often affordable, but lacking key features found in vehicles of the same class.

: Below average vehicle. Not recommended, and lacking attributes a car buyer would come to expect for the price.

: Poor vehicle. Simply does not deserve to be on the road.

Overview

The front-wheel drive Tucson comes in three trims: the GLS, SE, and Limited. The GLS has a 140 hp 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, with a choice of a five-speed manual gearbox or a Shiftronic four-speed automatic transmission. A 173 hp 2.7-liter V6 mated to a four-speed automatic transmission is standard on the SE and Limited trim. Four-wheel drive models are offered in SE and Limited trim only and also have the same standard 2.7-liter V6 mated to an identical four-speed automatic transmission. Standard safety features for the Tucson include side-curtain and side-impact airbags, all-disc antilock brakes with traction control, active front head restraints and an electronic stability system. The 2008 Hyundai Tucson is a carryover from 2007 with the addition of a new active head restraints safety feature. Also, the Limited trim receives a standard six-disc CD changer.
