HYUNDAI SUV
Whether you’re a city dweller or someone who thinks off-roading is more of a lifestyle than an occasional hobby, Hyundai has got you covered with its updated SUV offerings. The 2025 models include the versatile Tucson, the spacious Santa Fe, and the rugged Palisade, each offering something a little different for a variety of drivers.
The Hyundai Tucson 2025 makes its case as the cool, tech-savvy SUV everyone wants to be friends with. Available in multiple trims including SE, SEL, N Line, and Limited, it offers the perfect blend of sporty style and family-friendly practicality. Under the hood, you’ll find an array of engines that cater to different moods: a 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine that delivers 139 kW of power, a hybrid option with a 1.6-litre turbocharged engine and an electric motor that provides 169 kW of power, and a plug-in hybrid that offers a combined 195 kW of power and a neat electric-only range for your grocery runs. The hybrid and plug-in hybrid options are especially appealing for those who want to save the environment while looking fabulous on the road. It’s got all-wheel drive on tap for those who live in places where ‘rain’ is a verb, and with its available sporty N Line trim, it’s the kind of SUV that will make you forget you’re driving a practical family car.
Then there’s the Santa Fe 2025, the bigger sibling that has a little more room, a little more luxury, and just the right amount of ‘I’m a grown-up but still fun’ energy. The trims available here include the SE, SEL, XRT, Limited, and Calligraphy, which sounds fancy enough to make you want to wear a tuxedo just to get inside. Performance-wise, you can choose from a 2.5-litre four-cylinder with 142 kW of power or the hybrid options – a 1.6-litre turbocharged hybrid or a plug-in hybrid that delivers more power and efficiency than you can shake a stick at.
The Santa Fe offers interior features like ventilated seats for those hot summer days, a massive touchscreen with all the connectivity you can handle, and a surround-view camera to make sure you never hit anything – whether you’re parallel parking or off-roading. All in all, the Santa Fe is like the SUV equivalent of that one friend who’s always calm and collected.
Now, for those who need to pack up the whole crew and a week’s worth of luggage, the 2025 Hyundai Palisade is the full-sized, three-row SUV that says, ‘I’ve got the space, let’s go.’ Available in SE, SEL, XRT, Limited, and Calligraphy trims, it brings the kind of luxury you usually find in cars that cost more than your first apartment. Under the bonnet, the Palisade is powered by a robust 3.8-litre V6 engine that cranks out 217 kW of power, making sure you can take your family and their bikes on a mountain road trip, with 18.0 cubic feet of cargo room behind the third row.
Regardless of which model you choose, the 2025 Hyundai SUVs are packed with features designed to make your life easier – like a huge digital display that’s so bright and sharp it might just give your phone screen a complex. Hyundai’s BlueLink system is standard, which means you can control your car remotely via an app. Don’t want to get out of bed to start the engine? Just press a button on your phone, and you’ll be warm and ready to go without even leaving your cozy blanket cocoon. Plus, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto ensure that you’ll never be forced to deal with tangled cables again.
Each of their 2025 SUVs comes with a suite of standard features that’ll make you feel like you’re driving with a personal bodyguard. You get forward collision warning, lane-keeping assist, and a smart cruise control system that makes highway driving less of a headache. Higher trims even offer options like a blind-spot camera, a 360-degree surround-view camera, and even a feature that helps you park the car for you – because, let’s face it, no one has time for parallel parking drama anymore.
In a nutshell, the 2025 Hyundai SUV lineup brings a wide array of options, from the compact and sporty Tucson to the luxurious and roomy Palisade. Hyundai’s 2025 SUVs have the versatility and style to make every journey feel a little more exciting.
