Hyundai Tucson

Description

Development process and positioning
In 2005, Tucson was introduced into China as Beijing Hyundai’s first SUV, which was the beginning of Beijing Hyundai’s SUV products. After 10 years on the market, the cumulative sales of more than 420,000 units, is a well-deserved pioneer of the Beijing modern SUV family.
The new Tucson is positioned between the ix35 and the new  Santafe, and is a “dynamic SUV with free control” product created by Beijing Hyundai. The core concept of Beijing Hyundai’s new Tucson is: freedom instinct.
Product overview
With the increasingly fierce competition in the field of urban SUV, the homogenization trend of urban SUV products has gradually emerged. Due to the demand for flexible power control and personality, the urban SUV segment market has arrived. In order to respond to the development and changes of the market, the new Tucson launched by Beijing Hyundai has been comprehensively optimized and improved in control, safety, appearance, technology and comfort.
Power control: In the new Tucson, Beijing Hyundai is equipped with a 1.6T+7DCT power combination, while equipped with EPB+AUTO HOLD, all-wheel drive 4WD, front McPherson + rear multi-link suspension, electric power steering system
– Vehicle safety: In addition to the traditional active and passive safety devices, the new Tucson is also equipped with EPB+AUTO HOLD electronic handbrake function, and for the first time, a series of safety features such as BSD blind spot monitoring are applied
– Appearance design: The design language of fluid sculpture 2.0 is adopted, and the strong body lines are added to reflect the style of atmosphere, toughness and movement.
– Technology and comfort: The new Tucson includes dozens of convenient configurations, including intelligent parking assistance system (SPAS) and intelligent tailgate, which greatly facilitate the use of users in the city; The introduction of Car Life brings the latest technology experience to the users of the new Tucson.
– Other aspects: The new Tucson will also implement the “five-year 100,000 km vehicle warranty” policy to bring better quality and perfect service to consumers.
Power control
Unique in its class, the new Tucson’s 1.6T GDI+7DCT power package delivers acceleration and driving pleasure, while delivering excellent fuel economy and environmentally friendly emissions.
– The 1.6T GDI engine integrates in-cylinder direct injection and turbocharging technology, and adopts advanced engine technology such as dual CVVT inlet and exhaust variable valve timing control system. Maximum power 130Kw, maximum torque 265Nm; Through the application of ISG and other technologies, the lowest integrated fuel consumption can reach 6.9L/100km.
– The new Tucson offers a 7-speed DCT transmission with better precision and performance. When the next gear shift is realized in advance, the dual clutch is used to transmit power and improve the torque loss during the shift process, which can achieve the easy operation of the automatic transmission and the efficiency of the manual transmission.
– The dry dual clutch provides the same smooth and responsive performance as a conventional automatic transmission, but is small, lightweight and accelerates faster, reducing operating costs and CO2 emissions, helping to provide excellent fuel economy.
– Suspension system: Front MacPherson + rear multi-link independent suspension. The front suspension strengthens the wheel runout control, weakens the rebound impact to ensure the grip: the axial stiffness of the piston rod is strengthened, the hydraulic rebound limiter is applied, and the structure of the limit block is optimized to increase the diameter of the piston rod of the shock absorber, thereby improving the driving quality; The rear suspension wheel track rears to improve the impact absorption capacity, lengthens the hem arm, and tries to ensure that the wheel only vibrates up and down in the vertical plane, optimizing the adhesion effect and grip.
– Steering system: Equipped with speed sensing electric power steering (MDPS) system, through the motor control to save energy consumption, the motor and the power mechanism directly connected to enhance steering following, the use of microelectronics technology to improve the return performance; The structure of the steering machine and other parts is optimized to improve steering response and accuracy: the Angle of the steering tie rod and the effective arm distance are reduced, and the gear box tooth ratio is increased.
– All-wheel drive (4WD) available: helps improve daily handling and maintains good traction in different road conditions.
Vehicle safety
Active safety
Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) : When the driver moves from one lane to another without using the turn signal, the system will warn with an audible alarm (40km/h recognition, 60km/h warning).
Blind Spot Detection System (BSD) : Uses sensors in the outer corners of the rear bumper to monitor other vehicles on the side. If another vehicle is detected, a visual alert will appear in the external rearview mirror and dashboard display.

– AUTO HOLD: After activating this function, the parking brake will be automatically completed when the vehicle comes to a stop, without changing to N gear or activating the handbrake/foot brake; When you step on the accelerator, the parking brake is automatically released, and the operation is convenient. – Parking Brake System (EPB) : Unique in its class. Using the working principle of hot start, through the electronic button to achieve parking brake, the principle is the same as mechanical parking, more practical than mechanical parking, convenient, reliable, fuel saving, convenient switch operation handbrake also help save internal space.
Tire Pressure monitoring system (TPMS) : warns the driver when the tire pressure is insufficient to help avoid a blowout; It is highlighted in the instrument panel to realize 4 rounds of independent tire pressure monitoring.
Passive safety
– Ultra-high strength steel: the application ratio of ultra-high tension steel plate is 51%, which improves the average strength of the body and strengthens safety protection.
– Structural adhesive: The body adhesive is suitable for a length of 102 meters, which further enhances the rigidity of the skeleton and more effectively absorbs the collision dispersion force.
– Hot stamping steel: Hot stamping steel is used in the crew compartment, and hot forming steel is strictly applied to the A /B pillar part to strengthen the side strength and strengthen the side collision protection.
– Door anti-collision beam: enhance the strength of the door, improve durability, and strengthen the protection of the passenger compartment.
-6 Airbags: main/passenger seat airbag, front side airbag, front and rear penetration air curtain.
