2015 Hyundai Tucson Active X TL

This 2015 Hyundai Tucson Active X TL is a practical, well-equipped five-seat SUV with a straightforward front-wheel-drive layout and petrol power. Its silver exterior gives it a clean, understated appearance, while the elevated driving position and useful cabin proportions make it well suited to everyday urban travel, commuting and weekend use.

With 84,340km recorded, the Tucson offers a balance between usable second-hand value and the comfort expected from a family-sized SUV. The automatic transmission keeps daily driving simple, particularly in stop-start traffic, while the 2.0-litre petrol engine is paired with a stated fuel consumption figure of 7 L/100km. The 62-litre fuel tank also supports practical trip planning without making the vehicle dependent on frequent refuelling.

Inside, the cabin combines partial leather seating with a leather steering wheel and leather gear knob, giving the interior a more substantial feel than a basic cloth-trimmed setup. The front seats include a driver seat with electric lumbar adjustment, and the rear bench has a split-fold function that allows passenger and cargo space to be arranged according to the day’s needs. Rear armrest provision, bottle holders, door pockets and seatback pockets add useful storage for occupants.

Technology is centred on a colour multifunction control screen, Bluetooth connectivity, Apple CarPlay integration and USB, auxiliary and iPod inputs. These features make it easier to keep commonly used phone and audio functions accessible while travelling. A six-speaker stereo, multifunction steering wheel and trip computer add further convenience without complicating the cabin.

Practical equipment extends to a cargo cover, cargo net, tie-down hooks and storage areas in both the centre console and cargo area. Roof rails provide additional flexibility for carrying larger recreational or travel equipment, while the full-size alloy spare wheel is a useful inclusion for longer journeys. Eighteen-inch alloy wheels contribute to the vehicle’s purposeful stance, and the rear-view camera works alongside rear parking sensors to make tighter manoeuvres easier to judge.

The Tucson also includes a considered collection of everyday comfort and safety equipment. Automatic light-sensitive headlamps, LED daytime running lamps, front and rear fog lamps, heated and folding power mirrors, cruise control and front and rear power windows are all designed to reduce the effort involved in regular driving. Air conditioning with a pollen filter helps maintain a comfortable cabin environment.

Safety-related equipment includes ABS with electronic brake-force distribution and brake assist, electronic stability and traction control, hill-holder assistance, an alarm, engine immobiliser and a four-star ANCAP safety rating. Front, side and curtain airbags provide occupant protection across the first and second rows, while adjustable head restraints and front seatbelt pretensioners and load limiters add further restraint-system support.
