Verdict
SUV compact de 4,33 m, 5 places, coffre de 325 litres, testé 4 étoiles à Euro NCAP. Le 2.0 CRDi 140 ch (boîte manuelle à 6 rapports) est le moteur documenté : son turbo et ses injecteurs sont les points faibles cités. Les retours publiés restent peu nombreux ; visez un exemplaire récent, au carnet complet, et faites contrôler le turbo et l'alimentation en carburant.

You are importing the car to:
Import penalty (malus) in France
- Emissions of the versions in this guide: 184 g CO₂/km (check the value on the car's registration certificate).
- The CO₂ malus follows the scale of the year the vehicle was first registered, in France or abroad (WLTP or NEDC scale depending on its registration certificate).
- For an imported used car, it is reduced by a flat-rate discount based on its age in months (scheme in force since 1 March 2025). The weight malus also applies on first registration in France.
- Production ended in 2010: a car first registered before 1 January 2015 has no malus.

Manufacturer recalls
Manufacturer recall campaign, fixed free of charge at a dealer:
- Préfiltre de pompe à carburant obstrué par des fibres de courroie (2.0 CRDi 140)
See the official list on RappelConso (new tab) (French government recall site: category “Automobiles et moyens de déplacement”, search “Hyundai Tucson”). A dealer for the brand can also check, using the vehicle identification number (VIN), that recalls have been carried out.
Recalls published in France (RappelConso)
- 5 October 2021 — Les modules du système de freinage antiblocage (abs) peuvent fonctionner en interne. Cela pourrait causer un court-circuit électrique au fil du temps, augmentant le risque d’incendie dans le compartiment moteur. Official notice
- 14 July 2021 — Les informations sur les vins ne sont pas enregistrées dans l’unité ecall. Par conséquent, ces informations ne peuvent pas être transmises au système ecall dans une situation où un airbag est déployé, ce qui l’empêche de fonctionner correctement. Official notice
Inspection checklist
Hyundai Tucson I — inspection checklist
Things to check
- Demander la preuve de l'exécution du rappel du préfiltre de pompe (référence HY11-008 citée par CarVerif) sur les exemplaires d'avant 2008.
- Faire lire les codes défaut avant l'achat (injecteurs, suralimentation, EGR, filtre à particules) : CarVerif cite ces défauts récurrents.
- Vérifier l'absence de fumée et la montée en pression du turbo en accélération.
- Contrôler les factures de vidange : une huile de mauvaise qualité est citée dans les pannes de turbo.
- Contrôler la distribution et exiger le carnet d'entretien complet.
Questions to ask the seller
- Le rappel du préfiltre de pompe a-t-il été effectué ?
- Le turbo ou les injecteurs ont-ils déjà été remplacés, et à quel kilométrage ?
- À quelle fréquence l'huile a-t-elle été changée ?
Test-drive tip: read the fault codes
A warning light that is off proves nothing: a fault may have been cleared just before the viewing. A Bluetooth OBD2 scanner, plugged in under the steering wheel and read on your phone, shows stored codes and whether all emissions readiness tests have run since the last reset.
