That's why I think the new Tucson represents one of the best values in the sport utility camp, period. I need to stress again, however, that when I say value I don't just mean that it's priced well. I'm talking about one of the best made SUVs in its segment, with top-notch interior quality, an enviable list of standard and optional features, outstanding performance, a great price and one of Canada's best warranties.
In summation, if you're in the market for a compact SUV you would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't put the Tucson on your shopping list.
