Video: Witness the Hyundai Tucson Facelift undergoing rigorous testing in the Alps

Hyundai is currently working on an upgraded version of the Hyundai Tucson model. The Hyundai Tucson Facelift test prototype has been spotted multiple times during test drives, with the latest sighting capturing the prototype being tested in the Alps in a spy video.

During this recent sighting, the front of the prototype has shed its heavy camouflage, revealing new details about the front bumper, grille, and headlights.

The exterior changes mainly focus on the front of the Tucson, which sports a new radiator grille with refined grid patterns. The radiator grille also integrates LED daytime running lights with turn signal lights. Additionally, the front bumper has been improved with angular highlights.

There don’t seem to be any significant changes to the sides of the car, but the camouflage on the D-pillar suggests there might be some alterations to the chrome highlights running into the rear window. We can also expect updated wheel designs and new taillights with three-dimensional lighting graphics.

The interior of the Hyundai Tucson Facelift is also expected to receive notable upgrades, following the style of the new Santa Fe. We can anticipate a modern panoramic curved display system, along with the latest safety features and technologies, in the next-generation Santa Fe.

Regarding the powertrain system, the Hyundai Tucson will offer different engine options depending on the market. Experts believe the drivetrain options for the facelift version of the Tucson will remain largely unchanged, except for minor refinements to improve engine efficiency. There is also a possibility of upgrading the battery pack to increase the operating range in full-electric mode for the PHEV variant.

There is currently no official launch date for the Hyundai Tucson Facelift, but it is expected to be around the summer of 2024 in South Korea.
