Hyundai Tucson Receives Impressive Bookings In India
Hyundai has received over 75 percent bookings for the diesel model of the Tucson and 55 percent are for the top-of-the-line diesel automatic variant
Hyundai Motor India launched the Tucson SUV on November 14, 2016 and has already received over 200 bookings in India. The South Korean carmaker launched the third-generation Tucson in India and has been positioned between the Creta and their flagship SUV, Santa Fe.
Over 75 percent of the bookings for the Tucson is for the diesel model and over 55 percent of the overall bookings are for the top-of-the-line diesel automatic variant. The Hyundai Tucson is priced with an introductory offering of Rs 18.99 lakh to Rs 24.99 lakh ex-showroom (Delhi).

Tucson SUV is not new to India, the first-generation was launched a decade ago; however, the second generation did not make its way to the Indian market. The reason was mainly lower sales of the SUV.

As for the specifications for the Hyundai Tucson, the SUV comes in both the petrol and diesel models. The Tucson comes in two-wheel drive (2WD) manual gearbox in both petrol and diesel, 2WD Automatic GL in petrol and diesel and lastly the top variant 2WD Automatic GLS in diesel only.
