Model Preview
With the Hyundai Tucson set to enter to 2024 model year, the compact SUV is expected to be a carryover model without any major changes. The 2024 Tucson will continue to belong to the fourth-gen model that was introduced for 2022.
Shoppers will find that the 2024 Hyundai Tucson continues to have the same bold exterior design as the current SUV that’s on sale. The Tucson features a triangular front-end grille design that houses the daytime running lights and has a unique cascading effect. The SUV’s headlights are positioned in the middle of the fascia. Angular fender flares showcase the Tucson’s sharp styling, while the SUV’s jagged taillights, hidden exhaust pipes, and rear bumpers with diamond-shaped designs are other noteworthy design elements.
The interior design of the 2024 Tucson is expected to remain the same for the new model year. The current Tucson has a stylish and high-tech design with a sweeping trim piece that follows the curvature of the dashboard and matches the air vents, an expansive central touchscreen with an array of touch-capacitive controls, a stylish four-prong steering wheel, and a digital instrument cluster that’s positioned in front of the dash. The Tucson has a push-button shifter that frees up space in the center console, while the cabin features upscale materials.
Hyundai offers the Tucson with a standard eight-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, six audio speakers, two USB ports, Bluetooth, and an HD Radio. Available features include a 10.2-inch touchscreen, a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster, navigation, a wireless charging pad, eight audio speakers, a satellite radio, and four USB ports. These features should continue to be available on the 2024 model.
The current Tucson is available with multiple powertrains, which we expect will carryover for 2024. The base engine in the Tucson is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 187 horsepower and 182 pound-feet of torque. The Tucson Hybrid features a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that’s paired with an electric motor for 226 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque. These two engines come with an eight-speed automatic transmission. The Tucson PHEV comes with a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine, an electric motor, and a 13.8-kWh battery pack. The plug-in hybrid powertrain comes with a six-speed automatic transmission.
Standard safety features on the current Tucson include pedestrian detection, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, a driver attention monitor, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high-beam assist. These features should continue to be offered on the 2024 Tucson. Available safety features include a surround-view parking camera, parking sensors, a blind-spot camera, Remote Smart Parking Assist, and a highway driving assist system.

The 2024 Hyundai Tucson could arrive as early as this fall. Pricing for the 2024 model year hasn’t been announced yet, but it should remain close to the current model that’s on sale. The current Tucson's MSRP ranges from $28,235 to $46,095.
