While we won’t get to see the 2010 Hyundai Tucson until the 2009 LA Auto Show later this year, Europeans get to see their version of the compact SUV in Frankfurt with the debut of the 2010 Hyundai ix35.

Europeans will be offered a new 184-hp 2.0 diesel option along with a 166-hp Theta-II gasoline model. The U.S. market will only get the gasoline model, which gets an estimated 28 mpg.

    Looks OK, although does not seem to have xenon and daylights …pretty much a standard today. Or maybe Hyundai does not want to play in that category

    The design direction that Hyundai have taken to develop this car is perfect and will be key to the success that im sure it will have. Reviews have already shown that the ix35 can even perform rather than just “look good”. I've been inside the car and its a modern styled sleek; almost futuristic design that appeals to a younger audience. I can't point a finger on many bad points given the ix35 price tag, Hyundai are just doing it all right at the moment!
