Hyundai Tucson N Line: Performance Meets Style

Introduction to the Hyundai Tucson N Line

Hyundai’s performance-oriented N division has taken the Tucson SUV under its wing, and the results are being teased ahead of a full debut at the 2019 Geneva International Motor Show. For those unfamiliar with the N division, think of it as Hyundai’s answer to Lexus’ F Sport lineup or BMW’s M vehicles. The N Line models are designed to offer a sportier driving experience without the full performance overhaul seen in the more hardcore N models.

Exterior Design and Features

The teaser images of the Hyundai Tucson N Line reveal a new front fascia with unique daytime running lights, different wheels, and N Line badging on the front fender. While the images don’t show the entire vehicle, it’s expected that the exterior treatment will follow the same path as other N Line models. This could include a revised rear bumper and possibly a spoiler extending from the roof.

Interior Upgrades

Inside, the Tucson N Line features a new gear selector with N Line badging and red stitching, which is also visible on the center armrest. The pedals appear to have a metal finish, adding to the sporty aesthetic. In keeping with the N Line treatment, the interior will likely include a unique N Line steering wheel and sport seats, enhancing both comfort and performance.

Performance Enhancements

While the Tucson N Line won’t receive a new engine, transmission, or suspension, all three are expected to be retuned for greater performance. This could include sportier engine programming, quicker shifts from the transmission, and a stiffer suspension for better handling. These enhancements aim to provide a more engaging driving experience without compromising the SUV’s practicality.

Potential North American Release

Will the Tucson N Line make it to North America? It’s highly likely, especially if the updated Tucson continues to sell well in the region. Hyundai has already introduced the Elantra GT N Line and the more hardcore Veloster N to the North American market. Adding a slightly sportier-looking and sportier-performing Tucson N Line would be a logical next step.
