Hyundai officially launched the upgraded version of the Tucson SUV in the Korean market on December 6, 2023. The new model comes in a total of 12 versions with prices ranging from 27.71 – 39.38 million Won (approximately 510 – 724 million VND).
As an intermediate version in its lifecycle, the 2024 Hyundai Tucson has minimal changes in terms of exterior design. These changes are mainly focused on the front of the vehicle. The compact SUV is equipped with a Parametric Hidden Light grille with large hidden position lights, similar to the previous version. However, the LED position lights and grille design have been adjusted.

Compared to the exterior, the interior of the compact SUV has undergone significant upgrades. This can be seen in details such as the 3-spoke steering wheel with a design similar to the new Hyundai Kona. The gear lever has been moved from the center console to behind the steering wheel, similar to other new Hyundai models. The removal of the gear lever helps tidy up the center console and create space for wireless phone charging and a cup holder.
