2022 Hyundai Tucson breaks cover in India with ADAS, digital cluster
- Hyundai India has unveiled the 2022 Tucson premium SUV for the Indian market.
Hyundai India on Wednesday unveiled the 2022 Tucson premium SUV for the market here. Based on the Sensous Sportiness design philosophy of Hyundai, the latest Tucson has a number of design updates that help it stand apart from the outgoing model while also getting a behemoth of feature updates within the cabin. But most notably, the 2022 Hyundai Tucson features Advanced Driver Assistance System or ADAS which enhances the safety quotient and drive capability of the vehicle.
Hyundai Tucson has been in the Indian market since long with the first model for the market here launched back in 2005. This was followed by the second-generation Tucson brought in in 2009 and then updated with the third-generation model in 2016. But perhaps because of its placement in the premium SUV segment, it has not been anywhere close to as much of a success as the newer Creta and the Venue launched subsequently. But Hyundai is now looking to up the sales numbers for the car despite the premium SUV segment overall finding it hard to gain a momentum.
