Hyundai Tucson 2015 Pricing Announced, Base GLS Starts At Only $21,000

The 2015 Tucson is now available in showrooms all across the country, with Hyundai Motor America announcing that the pricing for the vehicle will start at $21,500.

The Tucson, wich is also known as the ix35 in Europe and other global markets, comes standard with LED taillights on the Limited trim level, while the GLS trim comes with the optional Popular Equipment Package.

For just a little over $21,000 (assuming you exclude the $875 freight charges) you can get behind the wheel of the 2015 Hyundai Tucson GLS.

Moving up to the top of the line Limited model means getting all wheel drive and partial zero-emissions for just $27,800.

Each trim level comes with a 6-speed Shiftronic transmission, but there is a choice between the 2.0- and s.4-liter GDI 4-cylinder engines.

The FWD and AWD versions of the GLS trim level are the only ones that comes with the Popular Equipment Package option.

The cost of the package is $700, and that small investment gets you a lot of cool features, such as a 4.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, rearview camera, lumbar supported 8-way power driver seat, automatic headlight control, and leatherette seat bolsters with cloth inserts.
