Peace of mind is paramount for families, and the Tucson SE is equipped with a full suite of active safety features designed to protect what matters most. Multiple airbags, including front, side, and rear side impact coverage, provide comprehensive protection for all passengers.

Automatic high-beam headlights and a rear window wiper further enhance visibility in all conditions.

Beyond its safety assets, the Tucson SE offers modern technology to keep the family connected and entertained.

Remote keyless entry, power windows, and steering wheel-mounted audio controls simplify daily use, and the cargo area features cargo blocks for organizing gear. The trip computer and outside temperature display help parents stay informed on the go.
