We’ve come to know the Hyundai Tucson to be a lot of things. Fuel efficient, safe, tech-savvy—all of these clearly describe the CUV.

We also know the Tucson to exhibit a high degree of versatility, but Rockstar Performance Garage (RPG) recently took the Tucson to an entirely new level. The SEMA conference is coming up and an RPG-modified Tucson will be part of Hyundai’s presentation.

Nic Ashby, owner and general partner of Rockstar Performance Garage, explained in a press release what he and his team’s goal was with the Tucson. “The focus behind this build was to create an off-roader that nobody expected.” The Tucson proved to be a great canvas for their work, explains Ashby, because the CUV featured a “rigid frame” and had “plenty of room in the engine bay.”

The modifications for the Rockstar Performance Garage Hyundai Tucson include:

• Turbonetics Godzilla Blow Off Valve
• 32-inch MTZ P3 tires
• Fully-custom, adjustable shocks and struts system from King Shocks
• High-flow Magnaflow exhaust
• Smoked rear tail lights
• Custom off road bumpers
• King Shocks 2.5-inch Adjustable Strut Coilovers
