    Interesting development on the Hyundai Tucson front as well today. As the U.K. spec has been released today for the facelift model, I’ve established that matrix headlights are being introduced and will be standard on the Ultimate. I can’t find reference to head up display which is also now available on the facelift for the first time. However, where Hyundai have given in the one hand, they have taken away in the other.  Leather trim is now a cost option (was standard on Ultimate) and, rather unhelpfully, the price of it is absent from the price list . This means that the £3.5k price difference between the Tucson and iX1 (once options are added to the latter) will narrow by however much the cost of the leather upgrade is .

    I think they have made a mistake, which will only become apparent when you are able to build the car!

    N Line Leather & Faux Suede Seats – – ● ● –  Standard on N Line & N Line S

    Seat Trim – Black Leather (Seat Facings Only) – – – – ○  Standard on the out going Ultimate
    Seat Trim -Moss Grey Leather (Seat Facings Only) – – – – ○ FOC  option on outgoing Ultimate
    Seat Trim -Cypress Green Colour Pack – – – – ○ New option pack (Ultimate only)
    Seat Trim – Premium Cloth ● – – – – New Advance Trim 
    Seat Trim – Premium Cloth & Leather – ● – – – Premium 

    Every model except the Ultimate has a dedicated “seat trim”, which screams error! My educated common sense guess is, Black & Moss Grey are standard seat trims on the Ultimate and therefore should have been blacked out and the Cypress Green “pack” as an optional extra on the Ultimate.

    Its unheard of Hyundai note putting leather on their top models.

    EDIT: Below the specifications list befor pricing-

    ● Standard
    ○ Free of Charge Option
