December 30 2024,
The 2025 Hyundai Tucson offers specific features designed for challenging Canadian weather, from standard HTRAC All-Wheel Drive to advanced safety systems that function in snow, rain, and ice. The latest model builds on Hyundai's SUV engineering with new capabilities across its expanded lineup of Preferred, XRT, N Line, and Ultimate trim levels.
Here are seven features that show how the 2025 Tucson handles diverse weather conditions throughout the year. Each element contributes to enhanced control and safety, backed by practical technology and engineering choices.
Advanced All-Weather Drivetrain
The 2025 Tucson includes HTRAC All-Wheel Drive (AWD) as standard equipment across all trim levels. This system continuously monitors driving conditions and adjusts power distribution between front and rear wheels. The Drive Mode Select system with multi-terrain modes enables drivers to optimize vehicle response based on current road conditions.
