Hyundai Motor on April 18 launched the Extreme edition of the Tucson sport utility vehicle to strengthen its lineup.
The 2.0-liter, diesel-powered Tucson SUV’s exterior contains a dark chrome radiator grille, dual twin-tip mufflers, a rear skid plate, 19-inch wheels and front disc brakes that can allow drivers to hit the road with confidence, the company said in a statement.
In terms of interior features, red-brown color leather seats and a black dashboard accent line add a premium look to the Extreme version of the Tuscon SUV, it said.
The Extreme Tucson mated with a six-speed automatic transmission sells at 29.3 million won (US$26,000) in the domestic market. Other 2.0-liter Tucson diesel models are priced at 24-30 million won depending on features.
