Adventure Time: The Hyundai Tucson “Adventuremobile” Is a Rad Way to Get Away from It All

SEMA-2015-Manufacturer-165

Teaming with Southern California customizer John Pangilinan, Hyundai dropped this green hunk of raditude at the 2015 SEMA show. Based on the compact Hyundai Tucson, the “Adventuremobile,” as it’s been dubbed, uses its upgrades to fantastic effect.

Aesthetically, this little crossover has it right. Painted in army green—a shade too often ignored in OEM color palettes, we gotta say—with a 1.5-inch suspension lift and and big-lugged 265/65 Toyo Open Country tires on 17-inch black Rays Gram Lights 57DR wheels, the Tucson Adventuremobile looks ready to scrabble its way to the remote outpost of your dreams. It also sports Thule roof-rack mounts and bars, Rigid Industries LED lighting, a roof-mounted Treeline tent, and a solar panel to power whatever you’ve got without running the engine.

The 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gets an intake and charge pipe from AEM, and now exhales through a Magnaflow exhaust. The brakes are upgraded via a Wilwood kit, as well. The exterior mods are rounded out by a bull bar and side steps from Aries, while the interior gets Katzkin custom leather, army green seat belts, a TruckVault storage setup in the cargo area, a massively upgraded sound system from Scosche and Clarion, and a few odds and ends you’ll want if you’re out in the wilderness, such as a battery recharger, portable phone charger, portable lights, and a portable solar generator.





One of our favorite things about SEMA is seeing otherwise anodyne vehicles taken to a completely different level—with taste and style, of course. This Tucson has both, and seemingly the goods to get you wherever you want to go.
