South Korean auto manufacturer Hyundai is getting ready to pull the wraps on its newest concept vehicle at the upcoming Specialty Equipment Market Association in November. The newest concept vehicle is the 2016 Tucson that is modified for outdoor use and will be called Adventuremobile.
Renowned South California tuner John Pangilinan posted a statement on Hyundai's website saying, "Designed with the weekend adventurer in mind, the Tucson was the perfect platform for an 'Adventuremobile.' The vehicle promotes exploration, making it ideal for the daily commute, weekend excursions, and the occasional road trip."
The 2016 Tucson will receive modification on its powertrain, chassis and suspension as well as interior and exterior design.
On its powertrain modification, the 2016 Tucson will have an AEM Intake and Charge Pipe Kit as well as Magnaflow Exhaust. This will provide additional power to the Tucson and the modified exhaust will make sure that the engine breaths more freely.
According to Slash Gear, the biggest modification will be on the suspension. A new custom suspension lift was fitted to the Tucson in order to raise it 1.5-inch off the ground. To provide traction in rugged environments, the Tucson is fitted with Toyota Open Country A/T tires and Rays Gram Lights wheels.
The 2016 Tucson will feature a custom BASF army green paint and the front bumper is protected by an Aries Bull Bar. On its roof is a platform for carrying extra camping equipment as well as the Treeline Tamarack Constellation Gen2 Roof-Tent.
The lights are provided by Rigid Industries and include SR-6 LED Lights with Tucson Light Bracket, E-40 LED Light Bar and Rock Light Kit.
The 2016 Hyundai Tucson SEMA-edition will debut on Nov. 3 in Las Vegas.
