Will a Hyundai Tucson fit your garage or parking space?

Almost nobody searches for a car's length out of curiosity. They are working out whether it clears a garage door, whether the doors will open in a supermarket bay, or whether it will hang over the end of a driveway. Here is the Hyundai Tucson measured against the two spaces that usually decide it.

Standard parking bay (2.40 m × 4.80 m)

Length spare
30 cm
Gap each side
27 cm

It sits inside the marked box, so the usual constraint is the car next to you rather than the bay itself. The side gap is reasonable before mirrors are counted.

Typical single garage (2.40 m × 5.00 m inside)

Length spare
50 cm
Gap each side
27 cm

The reference garage is the same 2.40 m wide as a marked bay, so the side gap matches — but here it is a wall, not a car that might have parked badly. The length works on paper, but that spare is shared between the door and whatever is stored at the back. Older UK garages are frequently narrower and shorter than this.

Read the width figure carefully

The 1,865 mm above is body width with the mirrors excluded, which is how manufacturers publish it. Mirrors add a meaningful amount on each side — enough to turn a comfortable garage into a folded-mirror one — so treat every side-clearance figure on this page as a best case. The bay and garage sizes are common UK conventions, not regulations: bays are marked differently from car park to car park, and garage interiors vary by decade of build. Measure your own opening before you buy.

Height is rarely the problem in the UK: the tallest car in this dataset is still under 1.75 m, so a height-barrier car park is normally only an issue once a roof box or bike carrier is on top. The Hyundai Tucson stands 1,650 mm unladen without them.

How the Hyundai Tucson compares to other suvs

Averaged across the 15 suv models we hold full dimension data for. Averages are computed from the same committed figures shown on every page in this cluster — nothing is modelled or estimated.

Across every model in the dataset the Hyundai Tucson is the 13th longest of 40 and the 5th biggest boot. Within suvs alone it is 7 of 15 on length and 3 of 15 on boot space.

Hyundai Tucson Euro NCAP rating

Size and weight are not a safety rating — crash protection is measured, not inferred from a kerb weight. Since anyone sizing up a car is usually weighing both, here is the tested result: the Hyundai Tucson scored 5 stars when Euro NCAP tested it in 2021.

Adult
86%
Child
87%
Pedestrian
63%
Safety assist
74%

Euro NCAP protocols tighten over time, so a rating from an earlier year is not directly comparable with a newer one.

Hyundai Tucson dimensions — FAQ

What are the dimensions of a Hyundai Tucson?
The Hyundai Tucson measures 4,500 mm long, 1,865 mm wide and 1,650 mm tall — 4.50 m by 1.86 m by 1.65 m. Kerb weight is 1,470 kg and the boot holds 546 litres with the rear seats up. The width figure is the body only: door mirrors are not counted, so the space you actually need on a driveway or in a garage is wider than the number above.
How big is the Hyundai Tucson boot?
The Hyundai Tucson has a 546 litres boot with the rear seats in place. That is 43 litres more than the average suv in our data (503 litres across 15 models). It ranks 5 of 40 models we hold dimension data for. Boot volumes are quoted by manufacturers using different methods (VDA versus SAE, seats up versus seats down), so use the figure to shortlist rather than to settle an argument — and if a specific pushchair or dog crate has to fit, take it to the car.
Will a Hyundai Tucson fit in a standard UK garage?
A typical modern UK single garage is about 2.40 m wide and 5.00 m long inside. Against that, the Hyundai Tucson leaves about 50 cm of length spare and roughly 27 cm either side of the body. Mirrors eat into that side gap, and many older UK garages are narrower and shorter than the modern figure, so measure the actual opening and internal walls rather than trusting a standard.
Does the Hyundai Tucson fit in a standard parking bay?
UK parking bays are commonly marked at 2.40 m by 4.80 m. The Hyundai Tucson sits inside it with about 30 cm to spare on length, and leaves about 27 cm either side of the body. Bay sizes vary between car parks and older town-centre sites are often marked smaller.
How much does a Hyundai Tucson weigh?
Kerb weight is 1,470 kg — the car with all fluids and a nominal fuel load, but no driver, passengers or luggage. That is 6 kg lighter than the average suv in our data. Kerb weight is not the same as gross vehicle weight, which includes the maximum load the car is plated to carry — that figure is on the VIN plate, usually inside a door shut or under the bonnet.
Are these Hyundai Tucson figures the same for every model year?
No. The figures on this page are for the most common UK specification of the Hyundai Tucson and are representative rather than variant-exact. Generations change size — a nameplate usually grows when it is replaced — and trim, wheel size, roof rails and body style all move the numbers. For the exact car in front of you, check the handbook or the manufacturer's brochure for that model year. Last reviewed August 2026.
