A Competitive Segment WorldwideThe local market is dominated by SUVs and crossovers, and car buyers are more inclined to purchase taller, wider vehicles as a means of achieving the most practical form of mobility for daily driving. The compact SUV segment is highly competitive, with the top dog being the Toyota RAV4.Keen to stay competitive, Hyundai has been toiling away at the Tucson's next form; in fact, some leaks and renderings are now making the rounds online. Leaked 2027 Tucson The Korean Car Blog has exclusively published leaked images of the next-generation Tucson. They show off a more aggressive design language, going all-in on Hyundai's angular modern motif. Although the leaks show only a few parts of the car, others have already created their own renders that, coincidentally, match the leaked images.Russian website Kolesa has posted what they think the 2027 Tucson will look like. Based on their renders, the Tucson adopts the modern, square, angular Hyundai design we see present on most of the SUVs in the lineup. Up front, you can see that it utilizes a thin LED headlight bar design, with the lower front fascia taking design cues from its smaller sibling, the Creta (sold in other markets).From the side, the similarity to the Santa Fe comes in; the roofline, bulging fenders, and rear fender design are all lifted from the bigger SUV. At the rear, we can see a new taillight design that looks like it was lifted from the Hyundai Stargazer MPV, running down the trunk, rather than the current lightbar design. Overall, the renders suggest that the next-generation Tucson will abandon its rounder sculpted shape in favor of a more aggressive modern look. SpeculationAgain, the photos above show a render of what the new Tucson might look like, but we're at that point where renders are very accurate. If Kolesa's imagination is even 80% on the dot, it looks like the new Tucson will be a handsome SUV.No details about the upcoming model are available yet, but with a 2027 launch window, a late-2026 debut is highly likely. Also, with the importance of the North American market, we can expect it to arrive soon after the global debut.
