SAFETY
Everyone values safety, and the engineers at Hyundai share this passion. That’s why the Tucson comes with a comprehensive collection of features that will help protect you. When you drive the 2024 Tucson, peace of mind comes standard.
SmartSense
Driver-assistive technologies maintain a watchful eye around the vehicle and keep you alert to potential threats nearby. In the Hyundai Tucson, these features come in the SmartSense suite of technologies. You’ll have an advantage when those unexpected moments happen, allowing you to minimize potential effects. Among these standard vigilant copilots are:
- Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
- Driver Attention Warning
- Lane Keeping Assist
Added Security
Your safety remains top of mind even after you shift to park. Thanks to standard Safe Exit Warning, you’ll be alerted to approaching traffic if you attempt to open the driver’s door, telling you to stay inside and wait for a safer time. In crowded parking lots and busy streets, this feature makes a huge difference.
If you’re looking for even more intelligent assistance, the available Remote Smart Parking Assist will aid in getting into tight spaces. The available Advanced Rear Occupant Alert is another significant advantage when you’re traveling with young riders in the back seat.
TECHNOLOGY
Driving should be about more than just getting from place to place—it should be a fun reward on its own. Inside the Hyundai Tucson, you'll find intuitive features that turn travel into an enjoyable experience thanks to state-of-the-art design.
Infotainment Features
As you sit in the driver’s seat, you’ll have a convenient gateway to tech at your fingertips. The infotainment system, featuring an available 10.25-inch touchscreen, lets you perform various functions and access your favorite apps, contacts, and more.
Want to keep up with messages and calls? Standard wireless smartphone connection makes it easy. You can take advantage of Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ technologies to keep your device within arm’s reach.
A Fun Audio Soundscape
If you’re the type of driver to plan road trips around a playlist, the Hyundai Tucson has you covered. With standard HD Radio™ technology and available SiriusXM® satellite radio, you’ll have access to all your favorite artists in stunning quality.
Want even more sound intensity? The available Bose® Premium Audio System is made for the audiophile in all of us. It turns your Tucson into a traveling concert hall with expertly crafted speakers arranged throughout the interior.
