Compare the Ford Kuga vs Hyundai Tucson
AI generated from our expert reviews
Both the Ford Kuga and the Hyundai Tucson make finding your driving position easy and straightforward. With the back seats folded down, the Tucson has more room than the Kuga. When fitting a child seat, the Kuga's outer ISOFIX mounts are simple to locate and use, whereas the Tucson leaves you prodding and hoping between cushions. Inside, the Tucson feels posh with top-notch materials throughout, while the Kuga disappoints with the feel of plastics lower down the dashboard, seats and centre console. The Tucson's dashboard climate shortcuts make it easy to operate on the go, but the Kuga's screen-based heater controls are fiddly to use on the move. When you head onto country lanes, the Kuga inspires confidence with minimal body lean, but you should not expect any fun on a country lane in the Tucson, even in the plug-in hybrid.
