2011 Hyundai Tucson

What’s new with the 2011 Hyundai Tucson? This first time winner of Vincentric’s Best Value in America Award has used its European design to achieve greater market awareness. But the Tucson has more than good looks – it’s also easy on your wallet, with low depreciation and the lowest operating costs in this category resulting in the best value of all 14 vehicles in this entry-level Crossover Compact Group. The Nissan Rogue took the runner-up position.
