2012 Hyundai Tucson Limited

The 2012 Tucson is Hyundai's compact crossover, sized and priced to compete with the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4. It drives with a light, nimble feel that makes it easy to maneuver in town and on tight roads. The cabin offers comfortable seats and a deep center console, though rear passengers don't get their own air vents. Owners report few major issues, but some have dealt with air conditioning problems and a cracked center console leather. The Limited is the top Tucson trim for 2012, adding leather upholstery and a sunroof that the GL doesn't offer, but it costs more than the front-drive Limited. Its 2.4L I4 makes 176 horsepower and pairs with a six-speed automatic and all-wheel drive, giving it confident traction in rain or light snow at the cost of 23 mpg combined.
