Hyundai Tucson: A Compact SUV That Takes New Jersey Winters in Stride
When it comes to tackling New Jersey’s unpredictable winters, Nielsen Editorial spotlighted some standout AWD vehicles for NJ winters, but let’s give the Hyundai Tucson its well-deserved moment in the snow. This compact SUV is ready to dominate icy Sussex County backroads, slushy commutes on Route 23, and even that unplowed driveway that laughs in the face of shovels. With advanced AWD tech and a cozy, tech-packed interior, the Tucson makes winter feel more like a power play than a penalty.
Hyundai’s HTRAC All-Wheel Drive system is like a snow whisperer, distributing power to the wheels that need it most faster than you can say, “Will we ever see the sun again?” From scaling the frosty hills near High Point State Park to scoring the last parking spot at Hayek’s Market (snow mounds included), the Tucson keeps you steady and stress-free. It’s basically the MVP of winter drives.
Inside, the Tucson proves it’s not just about function — it’s about flair. Need to fit sleds, snow boots, and your Target haul? No problem. There’s even room to load up your friends for a quick ski vacation at Campgaw Mountain. The cargo space says, “Bring it on, winter,” and we’re here for it.
Safety is where the Tucson really shines. With features like Forward Collision Avoidance Assist and Lane Keeping Assist, it’s like having a winter co-pilot who never takes a snow day. And those heated seats and steering wheel? They’ll have you feeling toasty enough to believe you’re on a beach in Wildwood — until you see the snowbank outside, of course.
Ready to see why the Tucson deserves a spot on every winter-driving shortlist? Visit our Hyundai dealership in NJ to take it for a spin. Who says winter can’t be stylish and fun?
