As Hyundai continues its rollout of the new Tucson in the home market, we get more information about what's possible for our market.

Last month Hyundai provided the first images and details of the refreshed SUV it says was "crafted with European customers in mind." Now we've learned that on the everyday trims, exterior changes bring the Tucson into line with the rest of Hyundai's updated global product portfolio. The grille's less ornate, more angular mesh is now framed by eight Parametric Jewel DRL elements that are each slightly larger than the 10 Parametric Jewel elements on the current SUV. Going for a more rugged look, the bumper and lower intake stand out with a simpler motif underlined by an element meant to resemble a skid plate.

A new set of photos shows us the back of the SUV as well. The reworked bumper omits the diamond-patterned garnish across the vehicle. At the edges, the horizontal reflectors are now twin vertical reflectors, in harmony with the twin taillamps on each corner.
