Hyundai’s flagship ICE SUV in India, the Tucson, has been delisted from the company’s website, and its sales have been discontinued. However, there has been no official confirmation from the brand yet. The current generation of the Tucson was launched in India in 2022 and saw decent success in its more than three-year stint in the country. However, in the more recent past, the SUV saw dwindling sales, which most likely prompted Hyundai to pull the plug.

The fourth-generation Tucson, when first launched, created quite a stir with its bold design, feature-loaded cabin and all-wheel drive capability. It entered a segment which had the likes of Jeep Compass, Citroen C5 Aircross and the Volkswagen Tiguan. The SUV came with both Petrol and Diesel drivetrains, offering more versatility to the customer.
At its recent inaugural investor day, Hyundai India announced that it will launch a slew of new SUVs over the next 5 years. The next-gen Tucson could be one of them when the model gets launched globally. A hybrid model of the SUV could also make its way here as the hybrids form a huge chunk of Hyundai’s plans for India. The current generation of the SUV already comes with a plug-in hybrid option in many global markets, but it hasn’t been brought to India.
