Exciting news from Hyundai and Car and Driver magazine: the beloved Hyundai Tucson will soon return to dealerships across the United States for the 2027 model year. Even better: the all-new compact SUV's fifth generation should be one of the best yet, especially for drivers here in the greater Knoxville area. So, what do East Tennessee families on the go have to look forward to? The experts at Grayson Hyundai have the scoop.
Cutting-Edge Exterior Design: the "Art of Steel"
For one, the 2027 Tucson is expected to be larger and more futuristic than ever.
- It'll sport sharper, bolder body lines and a wider, more squared-up stance, both of which will give way to brawny fenders sure to turn heads around Maryville, TN.
- The crossover's Limited trim is slated to include standard slim headlights and taillights.
- A newly available XRT PRO trim will be offered for off-roaders hitting the trails near Farragut, TN. It'll wow with a blacked-out exterior, dark metal trim, and exclusive patterned seats.
Adventure-Ready Capability
Every 2027 Hyundai Tucson will come prepared for wherever the journey takes you.
- Gas-powered models will incorporate a turbocharged 1.6-liter, in-line, four-cylinder engine that produces a spirited 184 horsepower and 195 pound-feet of torque.
- The 2027 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid will step up, with a next-generation hybrid system that's as exceptionally powerful as it is fuel-efficient. It'll deliver 233 horsepower and achieve up to 42 combined mpg, a higher rating than the outgoing 2026 Hyundai Tucson.
- The hybrid variant will also be rated to tow 3,000 pounds, which will be enough for transporting everything from small pop-up or teardrop campers to utility trailers and toy haulers.
An Inviting Interior, Reimagined
Weekend getaways out of Oak Ridge, TN, will be a blast from the SUV's redesigned cabin.
- It'll feature ample cargo space — 42 cubic feet — and newly available massaging Ergo Motion front seats.
- A faster, sharper PleosConnect-powered infotainment system will be available, with a giant touchscreen, split-screen multitasking, three-finger gesture control, and Gleos/Gleo AI Voice Assistant support. You'll be able to control climate settings, media, and navigation and access vehicle diagnostics, all with your natural, conversational voice.
- Dual wireless mobile-device charging pads will also be available to keep your equipment powered on long vacations.
