Hyundai previews new Tuscon in sketch [video]

Hyundai has previewed its upcoming Tuscon compact SUV, which will make its official debut at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show next month.

Sporting the Korean company’s design DNA, including a prominent hexagonal grille flanked by a pair of slimline headlights, the car looks muscular in the sketch.

Commenting on the All-New Tucson, Peter Schreyer, President and Chief Design Officer of Hyundai Motor Group, said: “Our new compact SUV will be a big step forward for the Hyundai brand globally. The All-New Tucson has a bold and athletic presence and a proud stance. Its design is characterised by flowing surfaces, bold proportions, sharp lines and – most important – our brand signature hexagonal grille.”

According to Hyundai, the Tuscon will be a global model and likely to replace the ix35 in Australia.

The Geneva Motor Show starts on the 3 March 2015.
