For the 2024 model, the brand has doubled down on its safety efforts and is committed to providing Hyundai users with a vehicle that not only takes them places but does so safely. These safety efforts and the advanced technology used make the 2024 Hyundai TUCSON one of the best options on the market. In this article, we’ll explain everything you need to know about the new TUCSON’s safety and driver-assist features.

2024 Hyundai TUCSON Safety Features

If you’re considering a vehicle upgrade, the new TUCSON is a great option, especially if safety, advanced technology, reliability, and performance are crucial factors for you when it comes to choosing a car. It’s widely known that Hyundai makes versatile and reliable cars, so the fact that it’s increasing its safety measures makes the brand even more irresistible. 

The previous TUCSON generation was named a 2022 Top Safety Pick+ by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, so we’re expecting the 2024 Hyundai TUCSON safety rating to be a perfect five as soon as it comes out. 

Since all 2024 TUCSON models come with Hyundai’s SmartSense suite of technologies, we’ve put together a list explaining some of the most relevant features. 

• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian/Cyclist/Junction Turning Detection: This feature helps prevent collisions by alerting you when a pedestrian or vehicle is in front of you. If you ignore the warning, the system can automatically apply the brakes.
• Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist: If the system detects a vehicle in your blind spot while your turn signal is on, it alerts you and can automatically apply one of the front brakes before you change lanes.
• Blind-Spot View Monitor: When your turn signal is on before you change lanes, you’ll see a live video feed of your blind spot from the side mirror camera on your Hyundai’s digital instrument cluster.
• Lane Following Assist: This feature helps you keep your SUV centered in the lane by using the front-view camera to detect road markers.
• Lane Keeping Assist: If your TUCSON drifts out of its lane for any reason, the system sends audio and visual cues to alert you. If you fail to respond, the vehicle will automatically apply corrective steering assistance.
• Driver Attention Warning: Your Hyundai monitors your driving patterns to detect drowsy or inactive behavior. The system sends you several audio cues and a warning message on the digital instrument cluster when detected.

2024 Hyundai TUCSON Security for Collisions

The 2024 Hyundai TUCSON is a safe SUV with advanced safety features that minimize collisions and accidents to a great extent. In the rare event of a collision, the air bags, front and rear crumple zones, and an SOS button are the features designed to help you. 

Hyundai has included air bags for the driver and front passenger and curtain air bags for both rows. All Hyundai models are now designed to absorb strong impacts on the front and rear zones. The SOS button sends your location and vehicle details to trained operators who coordinate the dispatch of immediate help. 

2024 Hyundai TUCSON Driver-Assist Features

To help you make informed driving decisions, this model comes with a host of advanced driver-assist features that minimize the risk of collisions and make driving a breeze. 

Here at Hanford Hyundai, we’ve compiled a list of the most relevant driver-assist features available on the 2024 Hyundai TUCSON. Please note that future software updates may increase the number of available features.

• High Beam Assist: To prevent you from having to turn your high beams on and off, the system does it for you by detecting oncoming vehicles and using high and low beams accordingly.
• Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go: Every time you drive at your set speed, the Hyundai TUCSON’s radar activates to maintain a safe distance between your SUV and the vehicle in front. If you fail to maintain this distance, the system can automatically slow your SUV down and restart it if the car in front moves in less than three seconds.
• Highway Driving Assist: This feature helps keep your TUCSON centered while maintaining a safe distance from the car in front. It can also help you drive at the right speed by using highway data and GPS.
• Highway Driving Assist II: This feature helps with steering and speed. When used with lane-keeping assist, it can automatically change lanes for you (as long as you signal a turn at 37 mph or higher), adjust your position in the lane if a vehicle gets too close, and react if a vehicle cuts you off. 
• Downhill Brake Control: This feature slows your vehicle when it heads downhill and keeps it at a safe speed so that you can focus on steering and avoiding any obstacles ahead. 
• Surround View Monitor: See the Hyundai’s bird’s-eye camera views of the rear and sides of your vehicle on the touch-screen display.
• Remote Smart Parking Assist: This enables your TUCSON to park and exit out of the parking lot itself, with or without you inside. All you have to do is press and hold your Smart Key button.
• Forward and Reverse Parking Distance Warning: This feature helps you park safely by using the ultrasonic sensors in the front and rear bumpers to detect nearby objects.
