Hyundai will present an all-new addition to the brand’s SUV line-up the ix35 at the Frankfurt Motor Show next month. The Hyundai ix35 joins the C-segment to replace the very successful Tucson. Alongside the ix35 will be the significantly-revised Santa Fe, which benefits from a wide range of engineering and cosmetic changes to fine-tune the driving experience and make it even more competitive versus rival D-segment SUVs. The ix35 is the first SUV to be conceived and engineered in Europe at the company’s Frankfurt-based design and technical centers.
The upgrades for Santa Fe include revisions to the powertrain, steering and suspension. Mated to the recently-launched diesel engine, codenamed ‘R’, these modifications have created a balanced and refined model, well suited to on-road and off-road demands.
