For the time being, the fourth-generation 4.77-meter-long Santa Fe will only be offered in Switzerland in the top version Vertex. This means the model is equipped with a 2.2-liter diesel engine (440 Nm, 200 hp), 8-speed automatic transmission and the new HTRAC all-wheel drive system, and includes all available options, including the head-up display and many new assistance systems. Hyundai's top SUV, which is very comfortable to drive, seats seven people and costs 63,900 Swiss francs. Hybrid versions are being planned, but are not expected to be available until 2020.
Tucson comes with front-wheel or all-wheel drive
The Tucson, which was developed and built in Europe, is also new. The 4.48-meter compact SUV has been one of the most popular models in its segment in Switzerland and Europe since its launch. Externally, it can be recognized by the new full-LED headlights, the revised bumper and the designs of the 17-, 18- and 19-inch wheels. There are also new paint colors. The interior has also been redesigned, with better quality materials used in the upper part of the dashboard. The Tucson is powered by a 1.6-liter gasoline engine (265 Nm, 177 hp) or the two diesel variants 1.6 CRDi (320 Nm, 136 hp) and 2.0 CRDi (400 Nm, 185 hp). A 48 V mild hybrid diesel will join the lineup in October. Models are available with front-wheel and all-wheel drive, and the price range is from 30,900 to 53,000 Swiss francs.
Benjamin of the brand from November also as a diesel
The smallest in the SUV range, the 4.17 meter long, always in combination with 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and all-wheel drive. Its price is 30,100 francs.
