In the past few years, the automotive industry has transformed from large luxurious cars and SUVs to smaller and more practical vehicles. The 2010 Hyundai Tucson is no exception with its redesigned body and styling to give the CUV more curb appeal while still keeping the rugged traits of a SUV.

Maryland Hyundai Dealers are offering the new Tucson for as low as $18,995 making the CUV a safe buy under $20,000. While consumers will save money on the insurance and payments, Hyundai owners will also spend less at the pumps. The Tucson’s 2.4L engine manages 31 miles per gallon while leaving a smaller carbon foot print than Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V, making the Tucson the most eco-friendly CUV to date.
