HYUNDAI TUCSON

Receiving an all new face and body (translating to a more larger size), the third generation Tucson is much more better than its replacement. More features are now available at all levels plus 4x4 model now available.

The Good: Refinement and everything else is excellent

The Bad: Now became pricey

Price Range: P1,158,000-P1,715,000
