Comprehensive Guide to Buying a Hyundai Tucson in the UK

Hyundai Tucson 2010-2015

Pros: Solid build quality and reliability. Comfy and spacious interior. Decent boot capacity.

Cons: The ride can be quite firm. Limited tech and safety features in comparison to modern versions.

When buying a used Tucson from this period, keep an eye out for potential gearbox issues in automatic models. Have a thorough check of its service history, and if there's any noise upon starting the engine, it might indicate a timing chain issue.

The competitors during this period are mainly the Ford Kuga and the Honda CR-V.

Hyundai Tucson 2015-2020

Pros: Improved quality and safety features. More refined engines. Good value for money.

Cons: Rivals offer better fuel economy. Some competitors are more fun to drive.

Watch out for any unresponsive touch screens, and make sure all electronic systems work without fail. Diesel models might have diesel particulate filter issues if used mainly in the city, so check for this as well.

Mazda CX-5, Kia Sportage, and Nissan Qashqai are notable contenders in this bracket.

Hyundai Tucson 2020-present

Pros: Feature-rich, with a great roster of tech. Classy interior. Quiet and efficient engine.

Cons: Some might find the styling polarising. Premium versions can be quite expensive.

As it's relatively new, there shouldn't be too many issues. Yet it's always wise to check everything electronically and mechanically.

It stacks up well against rivals such as the Ford Kuga, Peugeot 3008 and the Volvo XC40.

So if a Hyundai Tucson is on your shortlist, a used one can be a decent option given you know what to check for any potential issues. And to verify the history of any car, feel free to use Carsnitch, as it provides the entire history of any car free of charge.
