Hyundai’s compact SUV stretches further across trims than most competitors. From the cloth-and-cruise-control SE to the leather-and-Bose Limited, every trim has a clear job. Here is how we walk Merrillville and Crown Point families through the 2026 Tucson ladder at Webb Hyundai Merrillville.

Quick Answer: The 2026 Tucson trims are SE, SEL, N Line, XRT, and Limited. SE is the entry point. SEL is the volume Merrillville trim with dual 12.3-inch displays. N Line adds sport styling. XRT adds light off-road capability. Limited is the leather-and-Bose flagship. HTRAC AWD is available on every trim.

Tucson SE (entry)

SE is the value entry point. 8-inch touchscreen, cloth seating, Hyundai SmartSense driver-assistance suite, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Tucson SEL (Merrillville volume trim)

SEL is the SUV most Merrillville and Crown Point retail buyers actually drive home. Dual 12.3-inch displays, heated front seats, proximity key with push-button start.

Tucson N Line

N Line is the style upgrade. Black exterior accents, 19-inch dark wheels, unique front and rear bumpers.

Tucson XRT

XRT is Hyundai’s light-off-road answer. 1.2-inch suspension lift, all-terrain-style tires, skid plates.

Tucson Limited (flagship)

Limited is the leather-and-Bose build. Eight-speaker Bose, head-up display, panoramic sunroof, leather seating.
