Last year's redesign of the Hyundai Tucson left us suitably impressed, and we have unabashed admiration for the 2018 Tucson as well. This small crossover offers incredible value. The long list of standard features you'll find on every trim other than the base SE includes heated front seats, a power driver's seat, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity and a 7-inch touchscreen. Step up to the upper Limited trim and you get amenities like a navigation system, a panoramic sunroof, leather seating and more. When you buy a 2018 Hyundai Tucson at a dealer like the Toms River Hyundai dealer, you'll get it for thousands of dollars less than the price you'd pay for a comparable vehicle in the same class.
