Current Hyundai Tucson inventory in Tennessee at Grayson Hyundai

Hyundai redesigned the Tucson in 2010, and for 2011, little has changed for Knoxville Hyundai Tucson shoppers. Reviewers like this SUV because it's priced affordably, but still holds its ground because it offers a competitive features list that includes all-wheel drive and looks good.

The 2011 Hyundai Tucson exterior still reflects Hyundai's Fluidic Sculpture design philosophy that mimics wind and air movement. It also has good fuel economy and comfortable seating for both Tennessee Hyundai Tucson drivers and passengers. Hyundai did make a few minor changes to the Tucson for 2011. It added a base GL trim and upgraded the content on the GLS and Limited trims.

Reviewers like the Tucson for what it is. "The 2011 Hyundai Tucson might not be as big as its main rivals," says Edmunds, "but it makes amends with a handsome cabin, an ample list of features, sporty handling and a low price. It's a top pick for a small crossover."

The Tucson's price is also hard to turn down. It starts at $18,745 for the GL with an automatic transmission. But Knoxville Hyundai Tucson customers who choose the GLS you'll get a tilt and telescopic steering wheel, a more powerful engine, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, a leather wrapped steering wheel and Bluetooth for $21,825. The Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV-4 can't beat this price. If you are looking for a compact SUV with good fuel economy and a nice list of amenities at an affordable price, the Tucson is a good fit.

The Tucson has three trims: GL, GLS and Limited. The GLS and Limited models have a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine and optional all-wheel drive. The GL trim has a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. A manual transmission is standard on the base GL. The upper trims receive a six-speed automatic transmission.

"After its redesign last year, the Tucson compact crossover continues to impress us. Notably, this isn't simply because of traditional Hyundai strengths like value, affordability and overall quality. These qualities still define the Tucson, yet the crossover SUV's sleek styling, abundant features and fun-to-drive nature are what set it apart from its competition. All this makes the 2011 Hyundai Tucson one of Edmunds' top picks for a small crossover SUV." -- Edmunds
