What’s New? A Guide to the 2025 Hyundai Tucson for Students in Automotive School
The 2025 Hyundai Tucson offers a sleek design, advanced technology, and practical features, setting new standards for compact SUVs. Understanding its innovations, like enhanced safety and remote updates, is key for students at ATC Surrey’s automotive school.
Learn why understanding this model is crucial for future automotive professionals.
Refreshed Design with Modern Comforts
The 2025 Tucson may look familiar, but the inside is where Hyundai has significantly upgraded. The cabin now feels more luxurious, with premium materials and improved ergonomics.
Hyundai’s goal was to create a more comfortable and user-friendly interior, and they’ve achieved this with redesigned dashboards and center consoles, which provide easy access to controls for drivers and passengers.
One exciting change is the shift-by-wire system available on higher trims. This system replaces the traditional gear shift with a column-mounted selector, freeing up space in the center console for a more spacious and practical layout.
Performance: Smooth, Comfortable, and Confident
The gas-powered 2025 Hyundai Tucson delivers a driving experience focused on comfort and refinement. Powered by a 187-hp 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, the Tucson offers smooth handling for city driving and highway cruising. While it may not match the sporty acceleration of competitors, it makes up for it with a quiet, composed ride that feels surprisingly luxurious.
The hybrid option comes standard with all-wheel drive for added control on slippery roads, making it versatile for varying weather conditions. The hybrid and plug-in hybrid variants—which feature quicker acceleration—provide eco-friendly alternatives for those seeking more power.
Cutting-Edge Technology and Connectivity
The infotainment system is where the 2025 Tucson shines. A dual-screen setup with two 12.3-inch displays is standard on all trims, offering drivers access to everything from navigation to vehicle settings through a sleek, intuitive interface. Hyundai also revamped the climate control system, replacing touch-sensitive controls with buttons and knobs for a more user-friendly experience.
Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are now standard, making it easier to sync smartphones without tangled cords. Another welcome addition is over-the-air updates, which keep the vehicle’s software up-to-date without the need to visit the dealership—a feature that automotive school students should keep an eye on as remote tech updates are becoming a trend in the industry.
Spacious and Practical for Everyday Use
For those who prioritize space and comfort, the Tucson doesn’t disappoint. This compact SUV offers a generous 41.2 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats up, which expands to 80.3 cubic feet when the seats are folded.
Hyundai has also paid attention to small but meaningful details that enhance comfort, including ample legroom and headroom, even for taller passengers. This makes the Tucson a great option for families, road trips, or anyone who likes to have extra space while driving.
Advanced Safety and Driver Assistance for Automotive School Students
As you’ll discover in auto mechanic school, the 2025 Tucson introduces some impressive driver-assistance features, many of which are standard. These include:
- Automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection
- Lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist
- Adaptive cruise control with lane-centering functionality
One of the standout new features is the infrared gaze-tracking camera. This system monitors the driver’s attention and can even stop the vehicle and activate hazard lights if it senses the driver is unresponsive—a significant step forward in road safety.
