2008 Hyundai Tucson Limited 4WD V6 Road Test

Source: Automobile

I remember being thoroughly impressed with the Tucson three and a half years ago when it was introduced as a 2005 model, although since this time a lot of competitive compact crossovers have either been significantly updated or arrived on the scene altogether new.

Several years ago, the Tucson was one of the only models in its class to offer standard side airbags and electronic stability control, but over the past several years, other brands are offering them and they're no longer the differentiator. The Tucson is beginning to look a little outdated in its design, and the new Honda CR-V stands out as an especially strong competitor, with top safety results, a refined powertrain, and a comfortable, roomy interior. The Escape, though a dated design, has been recently refreshed. If you're looking for a vehicle that feels sportier, the Subaru Forester is a good alternative--it sits a bit lower and handles more crisply--as is the Mitsubishi Outlander. One advantage the Tucson holds over most of the competition is that its AWD system has a locking center differential, making it less likely to get stuck on muddy inclines or mixed-traction situations. Finally, there's also the Kia Sportage, which is closely related to the Tucson but has slightly more distinctive, rugged styling. Both the 2008 Hyundai Tucson and the Sportage offer an excellent warranty, with 10 years or 100,000 miles of powertrain coverage.
