Hyundai typically responds boldly when faced with a challenge. They're the guys, after all, who brought us the 10-year, 100,000-mile warranty to assure those who were still unsure about the Korean carmaker.
But this year's challenge in the compact-crossover market is Mount Everest-like: Build a new Tucson capable of taking on the giants: Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV-4, who currently lead Tucson by a couple-hundred thousand car lengths. That amounts to nearly triple Tucson's sales midway through last year, according to one report.
Challenge accepted, apparently. The 2022 Tucson has turned heads of buyers and analysts alike with its truly bold, distinctive look, more space for passengers and stuff, and better tech and interior materials quality. And Hyundai threw in some clever design features with a wink and a nod.
