The turning circle compared to other Hyundai models
Now, trotting over to the rest of the Hyundai stable, let's gossip about how the Tucson stacks up. The featherweight Hyundai i10 twirls at a petite 9.80 meters, leaving its bigger sibling in the dust. The Kona and i30 family are slightly more generous with space, offering a 10.60-meter ballet of a U-turn. The Tucson declares sovereignty over the hulking Santa Fe and the regal Palisade, which require 11.30 meters of tarmac to u-turn with royal dignity. Only the bohemian Nexo and its eco-friendly brethren — the IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 5 N — trump the Tucson, as they demand a more luxurious 12.00 meters for their rotational spectacles.

How does the turning circle of the Hyundai Tucson compare to it's nearest competitors?
Let's pit the Tucson against some contemporary chariots, and observe the frisky automotive theatre unfold. In this parking lot derby, the Mazda CX-60 frolics around with a 11.70-meter turning chasse — a bit more cumbersome than our protagonist. The Audi Q4 e-tron offers a curtsey comparable to Marie Taglioni's, needing only 10.20 meters to showcase its pirouette. Vehicles like the Nissan Ariya and the Jaguar E-Pace ask for 10.80 and 11.90 meters respectively, with the Ariya matching the old Tucson's steppings, while the E-Pace enjoys a larger stage. The aristocratic Range Rover Velar flips its coattails grandly, taking up 12.00 meters for its courteous automotive bow. The Tucson, in this theatrical comparison, sits comfortably in the middle, not quite a ballerina but far from a clumsy court jester.
