The All-New 2027 Tucson
Hyundai unveiled the redesigned Tucson in October 2026, and it is set to arrive in North America in 2027. It is longer and wider than before, at 4,700 mm long and 1,905 mm wide, with a 2,785 mm wheelbase. The design follows Hyundai’s “Art of Steel” language, with muscular fenders, H-Edge front lighting and Prism Rear Lamps.
Two powertrains are on the menu: a 1.6 L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with 184 hp and 195.3 lb-ft of torque, and a next-generation hybrid with 233 hp and 279.9 lb-ft combined. The hybrid all-wheel-drive Tucson tows up to 3,000 lbs (1,361 kg).
Inside, the Tucson is the first Hyundai in Canada with Pleos Connect, a new infotainment system with available 32.8 cm or 43.2 cm centre screens, available Gleo AI voice assistance, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and over-the-air updates.
The new XRT and XRT PRO versions bring the rugged side. The XRT PRO adds:
- Standard all-wheel drive and all-terrain tires
- 210 mm (8.3 in) of ground clearance, 30 mm more than the standard Tucson
- Smart Terrain Assist, Hyundai’s first system that rates terrain with a green, orange or red “stuck score”
- Front recovery hooks and an expanded cladding package
2027 Palisade: Night Package Joins the Lineup
The Palisade continues as Hyundai’s three-row family SUV, with trims including Preferred Trend, XRT Pro, Luxury Hybrid, Ultimate Calligraphy and Ultimate Calligraphy Hybrid. Buyers choose between a 3.5 L V6 with 287 hp and a hybrid with 329 hp, both with all-wheel drive.
New for 2027 is the Night Package. Built on the Ultimate Calligraphy trim, it adds 21-inch black alloy wheels, black roof rails, darkened chrome grille and trim accents, and black Hyundai emblems. Inside, black Nappa upholstery and black finishes carry the theme. Exterior colours are Abyss Black, Creamy White and Ecotronic Grey.
2027 IONIQ 9: The Electric Three-Row Goes Dark
The IONIQ 9 is Hyundai’s most spacious all-electric SUV. The 2027 lineup includes Preferred AWD, Luxury AWD and Ultimate Calligraphy AWD+ trims, all with a 110.3 kWh battery and Hyundai’s 800-volt architecture for ultra-fast charging. AWD models make 303 hp, while the AWD+ makes 422 hp from two 160 kW motors.
The IONIQ 9 also gets the new Night Package, based on the Ultimate Calligraphy AWD+. It pairs an Abyss Black exterior with 21-inch black-finish wheels, blacked-out badging, black roof rails and window mouldings, and black chrome accents. The cabin follows with black seating surfaces, a black steering wheel and black aluminum trim.
Both Night Package models arrive at Hyundai dealerships across Canada beginning in fall 2026.
2027 Kona: A New Luxury Trim
The Kona remains Hyundai’s compact SUV for city driving and smaller garages. The 2027 gasoline lineup runs Essential, Preferred, Preferred Trend, Luxury and N Line Ultimate, with the Luxury trim new to the range.
Essential through Luxury use a 2.0 L 4-cylinder engine with 147 hp and 132 lb-ft of torque. The N Line Ultimate steps up to a 1.6 L turbocharged 4-cylinder with 190 hp and 195 lb-ft, paired with an 8-speed automatic and all-wheel drive.
2027 Santa Fe: Hybrid Power Across the Board
The Santa Fe lineup for 2027 includes Preferred, Preferred Trend, Luxury Hybrid and Ultimate Calligraphy Hybrid trims. Every trim uses a 1.6 L turbocharged 4-cylinder hybrid powertrain with 231 hp and all-wheel drive, so every Santa Fe in the lineup brings hybrid efficiency.
