2012 Hyundai Tucson Review Summaries

What reviewers liked most about the Hyundai Tucson:

...the Tucson is quite nimble when you want to hustle through a few turns. Steering response is very good for a crossover and the electric assist feels natural. Even the dampers, a traditional difficulty for the Korean manufacturers to get right, are well tuned....

Thanks in part to its lowest-in-test curb weight, the Tucson posted the second-best 0-to-60-mph acceleration.

-- Car and Driver

...everything is easy to reach and operate. The materials are nice. The seats are supportive and comfortable. There's plenty of room in both the front and rear seats, with comfortable seating for four, capability for five.

What reviewers liked least about the Hyundai Tucson:

Be wary if you live on a dirt road, though: Rough surfaces expose Tucson riders to a barrage of suspension and tire thwaps as the steering wheel bounces around in the ­driver�??s hands.

Hyundai Tucson Comparisons:

...the Tucson's interior: it rivals the Chevy Equinox's as the best in this segment. Rich materials and excellent panel fits in this modern, fresh, well-designed, high-quality cabin with great ergonomics. The RAV4's interior, by comparison, is pretty ho-hum.
