Safety comes standard in the Hyundai Tucson and the Toyota RAV4. These two SUVs prioritize your security by offering standard safety suites. Thanks to their intelligent systems, drivers will experience a blissful, balanced, and protected ride.
Both SUVs are equipped with safety technology that helps keep you aware of what's going on around your vehicle so you can enjoy more confident driving. For instance, both models offer similar driver-assistance features that include:
These features help protect you from potential collisions and keep your vehicle centered within your intended lane.
While the Toyota equips a few features unique to its Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.5 system, you’ll find unique features in the Tucson that are not available in the RAV4, including:
You can also equip your Hyundai with available Remote Smart Parking Assist. This intelligent feature lets you park your vehicle or pull it out of a parking spot with just the click of a remote. Unfortunately, the Toyota RAV4 does not offer a similar feature.
SUVs like the Hyundai Tucson and the Toyota RAV4 are meant to go off the grid. Even as you explore sights unseen, you can stay connected with your friends and family via smartphone integration features and extended touchscreen displays.
The Hyundai Tucson and the Toyota RAV4 both do a good job of helping you stay connected to your digital world by turning your car into a smartphone hub. Both vehicles come standard with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. However, the Tucson’s integrations are wireless, whereas the RAV4’s integrations may require a cord for pairing.
When you use either of these smartphone integrations, you can seamlessly toggle your favorite music, podcasts, or audiobooks.
Despite their connectivity difference, the Tucson and the RAV4 offer nearly identical infotainment systems. For starters, both models come with 8-inch touchscreen displays that can be upgraded to a screen that reaches over 10 inches! That means you’ll have crisp visuals in either option.
However, the Tucson also has available Dynamic Voice Recognition, which allows you to stay hands-free as you drive. This feature even extends to the climate control settings thanks to available voice control HVAC.
The RAV4 also has voice command; however, it doesn’t control the climate settings.
The Hyundai Tucson and the Toyota RAV4 are more than just daily drivers. Thanks to their innovative technologies, these SUVs can elevate both your day-to-day duties and your spontaneous adventures.
The innovative features being added to cars each year continue to make everyday tasks more convenient. These include remote capabilities, which are available in both the Hyundai Tucson and the Toyota RAV4.
With these available features, called Bluelink® in the Hyundai, you can start the engine and turn on the heat as you finish eating breakfast before leaving for work. This can be done with your voice, too, through one of your smart devices.
Both vehicles provide an available hands-free smart liftgate to make loading and unloading cargo easier, especially when your hands are full. This system features auto open technology in the Tucson, which will automatically open the liftgate when it senses you're nearby for easier access to the cargo area.
The decision between the Hyundai Tucson vs. the Toyota RAV4 may come down to the type of driving you do. If you'll be driving around Dearborn and Detroit, MI with a car full of passengers, we believe the Tucson will provide a more comfortable ride for all.
