Talking of its looks, it gets a major design refresh on the outside. The changes are, however, not all that distinctive, as it is more of a facelift job than a generation change. As from the front, the 2020 Tucson gets a new cascade grille, Penta-projector LED headlamps, re-sculpted bumper, and a bonnet with sharper creases. The wheels arches are even more flared in comparison to the outgoing Tucson, thus giving it a striking front-end. The changes are also made to the car’s rear facet with sharper LED tail lamps and twin-tip exhausts. The rear bumper is also revised with subtle changes on its side.

Hyundai has updated the engine lineup to meet the BS-6 emission norms.

On the features front, the 2020 Tucson will get a panoramic sunroof, tyre pressure monitoring system, powered tailgate, electronic parking brake, 8-way power-adjustable front seats, and connected features via Hyundai’s Blue-Link app.

Powering the 2020 Tucson will be a set of 2.0L BS-6 petrol and diesel engines that one can choose from. The rated output figures for the 2020 Tucson are 185PS and 193Nm for the petrol engine and 152PS and 400Nm for the diesel engine.
