Transmission

A 4-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC™ is standard on the GLS, GL V6 and Limited models and optional on the Tucson GL. You can choose fully automatic or manual sport shifting.

Airbags¹

All models come standard with dual front airbags. Tucson's advanced airbag system performs a status check at start-up to ensure readiness. Front side-impact curtain and roof-mounted side-curtain airbags are standard on the Limited, for added safety.

Wheels

The Tucson comes standard with 5-spoke, 16-inch alloy wheels.

Braking

Standard on all Tucson models is an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS). During abrupt and hard braking, the brakes are automatically applied and released several times per second to prevent tires from slipping due to wheel locking.

Electronic Stability Control ²

Standard on all Tucson models is Electronic Stability Control (ESC) with Traction Control System (TCS), a cutting-edge driving stability system designed to sense oversteer and understeer conditions. During unexpected and dangerous situations, it adjusts the braking power of each wheel utilizing the Traction Control System to help restore the driver's course.

¹ The Supplemental Restraint (Airbag) System (SRS) is designed to work with the 3-point seatbelt system. The SRS deploys in certain frontal and/or side-impact conditions where significant injury is likely. The SRS is not a substitute for seatbelts, which must still be worn at all times. Children under the age of 13 should be securely restrained in the rear seat. NEVER place a rear-facing child-seat in the front seat of a vehicle with an airbag.

² Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and Traction Control System (TCS) are meant to enhance conscientious driving habits and are not a substitute for safe driving practices.
