Jones Bel Air Hyundai - Bel Air, MD drivers’ guide to the Tucson’s panoramic curved display and HTRAC AWD
If you are looking for a compact SUV that feels intuitive on Day One and indispensable by Day Ten, the Hyundai Tucson delivers two standouts you will use constantly: the panoramic curved display and available HTRAC All Wheel Drive. Together, they turn tech into practical value, helping you keep eyes up, hands light, and traction steady when weather or loose surfaces demand more. For local drivers, that combination makes quick work of weekday errands, back-road hikes, and family weekends when the itinerary changes on the fly.
The panoramic curved display unites a wide touchscreen with an available digital instrument cluster in one sweeping, driver-focused arc. The effect is more than eye-catching—it reduces distraction by placing key information in a single plane of sight. Wireless Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay® are standard, so maps, playlists, and calls are ready without cables. Add available Dynamic Voice Recognition, and simple requests—find coffee, call home, reroute around traffic—are handled with natural commands. The result is a cockpit that feels familiar and stress-free, whether you are lane-hopping or settling into a long cruise.
HTRAC All Wheel Drive brings an equally tangible benefit. It can distribute power between the front and rear axles to help maintain grip on rain-slick city streets, gravel pull-offs near trailheads, or light snow. Drive Mode Select lets you adapt the Tucson’s responses to your plans—Normal for daily driving, Sport for more responsive tuning, My Drive for customized preferences, and Snow on AWD models for added assurance. The best part is how invisible it all feels; you simply enjoy steady control while the system quietly helps optimize traction.
At Jones Bel Air Hyundai, we help shoppers understand how tech translates into everyday ease. Below is a quick checklist of what stands out when you spend time behind the wheel.
- Panoramic curved display: Keeps critical info in one clean visual sweep and reduces scan time.
- Wireless smartphone integration: Cuts clutter while providing seamless access to maps, music, and messaging.
- Available voice recognition: Handles common tasks naturally so your hands stay on the wheel.
- HTRAC All Wheel Drive: Adds confidence on wet, gravel, or slushy roads without extra input.
- Drive Mode Select: Tailors steering, throttle, and transmission behavior to your day.
We also find customers appreciate the small touches that make a big difference—dual automatic temperature control for year-round comfort, second-row USB charging to end the cord scramble, and a hands-free smart liftgate that makes loading easy when your arms are full. These are not party tricks; they are everyday helpers that build satisfaction over the long haul.

HTRAC automatically varies power between axles when it senses a need, while Drive Mode Select lets you influence steering and powertrain response. Together, you get intelligent adjustments plus a driving feel that suits your preferences.

With Hyundai Digital Key 2, you can lock, unlock, and start the vehicle using a compatible smartphone, and securely share access with family members when needed.
