Why should I also consider these? X

In years past, the Hyundai Tucson was nearly alone in its class to offer electronic stability control and standard side airbags—but other competitors have since caught up.

An especially strong competitor to the 2009 Hyundai Tucson is the Honda CR-V, which outclasses the Tucson in terms of design.

The CR-V also offers great safety results, a good powertrain, and a noteworthy, roomy interior.

Another option is the Escape, which has received some recent updates.

For better handling, look to the Mitsubishi Outlander.

The Kia Sportage has more rugged styling and a comparable warranty of 10 years or 100,000 miles for the powertrain.

Still, however, the Hyundai Tucson does stand out in the class for the AWD system with a locking center differential, which helps on muddy inclines.
