If you wish to upgrade over the GL(O) variant, then the GLS variant is expensive. It doesn’t really offer compelling features to justify its added premium. The Tucson GLS diesel offers you the all-wheel drive option, which gives you better driving capabilities in various situations such as - sand, slush, rains and rough terrains. We suggest that you choose the Tucson GLS AWD diesel, only if you frequently drive in such conditions.
