Hyundai is much more than just a value volume brand these days - and the improved version of this fourth generation Tucson provides ample proof of that. It's a family SUV you'd still choose for its looks, secure in the knowledge that in terms of practicality, safety and connectivity, it's also cutting-edge. 
We're not as convinced that the Korean maker has done as much as it could have to improve its engine electrification options - particularly in the case of the Plug-in Hybrid version. Plus it's disappointing that the 4WD versions can't tow a little more. And as before, those looking for a truly involving drive might have reason to pause for thought before purchase. If you can live with those caveats though, there's still lots to like here.
If you didn't want a Tucson previously, there's not much more reason to choose one now. But if you like the way it looks, this update could tip you Hyundai's way, secure in the knowledge that all kinds of serious family expeditions - be they to the shopping mall, the in-laws or Inverness - will be well within this car's remit. Expect it to continue to establish Hyundai in this segment.
