hyundai tucson highlander review

The Hyundai Tucson Highlander is the family SUV that turns errands into a smug little victory lap.

In Australia you can have it with a 2.0 petrol FWD, a 1.6‑turbo petrol AWD, or a 2.0‑diesel AWD; outputs sit around 115–137 kW and 192–416 Nm, with real‑world economy roughly 6.5–9.0 L/100 km.

Inside you get plush trim, big screens, heated/ventilated fronts and a stack of safety kit (AEB, lane‑keep, blind‑spot assist) that behaves like a second, less naggy co‑driver.

It rides comfy, steers tidy, and only the dual‑clutch’s low‑speed shuffles and some tyre roar spoil the zen.

Boot’s generous, warranty’s long, and the badge won’t scare the neighbours—unless they’re still hoarding Falcons.

Key specs vary by engine and year; double‑check before you buy. Consult official documentation for exact figures.
