Overview & Reviews

Engineering refinements to the transmission, torque converter, engine and steering-pump belt translate into an improvement in fuel economy of 4-6 percent for the 2009 Hyundai Tucson. The Tucson also gains a navigation system later in the model year; it's part of the new upgraded Kenwood audio system. Other upgrades this year include new wheels, a revised chrome grille and a B&M Racing Sport Shifter for models equipped with manual transmissions. Finally, the standard features list on SE Tucsons equipped with four-wheel drive now includes heated front seats and a windshield wiper de-icer, and Limited V6 models come standard with a sunroof.

• Stylish and functional interior, impressive warranty, plenty of standard features.

• Performance and fuel economy are noticeably lower than most competitors.

  First SUV - 2009 Hyundai TUCSON
  By Denise - March 30 - 12:46 pm

  I bought my first compact SUV. Love it so far. I am 66 so had running boards installed to help my older friends get in. Love riding high. Pickup is a little slow but after that, great. I am really enjoying the vehicle and get great comments from my friends.

  Love my stick shift Tucson! - 2009 Hyundai TUCSON
  By former Saturn owner - May 29 - 10:00 am

  Wasnt planning to purchase this but the stick shift sold us. I love the driving experience and Hyundais attention to detail. Warranty a big plus. Ive never driven an SUV so its been a learning experience, but I love this car. Its pretty quiet and handles very well.

  Lady Driver loves Tucson - 2009 Hyundai TUCSON
  By ladydriverca1 - July 1 - 3:48 pm

  Just a great car. At 80K miles now, with no problems whatsoever (even in scorching Arizona). Averages 22-25MPG, which I think is good compared to other 2009 SUVs. A comfortable vehicle, even on long road trips. Fun to drive, quiet, lots of interior cup holders, and the last year of this beautiful model. A perfectly not-too-big SUV that still elevates the driver. Comparable to the old (wonderful) Isuzu Rodeo.

  More than enough - 2009 Hyundai TUCSON
  By Aaron - January 23 - 6:40 pm

  I was expecting an under powered SUV and I was pleasantly surprised when it had more than enough. This vehicle just continues to impress us. My wife and I have to take turns driving it. Our other mode of transportation is a V-8. Were already getting 10 more MPG. With the warranty its truly worry free driving. Id recommend it to anyone.
