2026 HYUNDAI TUCSON

The vehicle is listed with an auction condition of “PERMIT SALVAGE” and a primary damage classification of “FRONT END.” The visible evidence supports the stated FRONT END classification through extensive damage and missing components at both front corners. The permit-salvage status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs. The front end has severe collision damage on both the passenger and driver sides. Both front fender and corner areas are crushed, torn, and displaced, with open wheel-arch areas and internal components exposed. The front bumper, grille, and fascia are missing, leaving the radiator, condenser, cooling supports, wiring, and mounting components exposed. Broken and detached bumper parts are shown on the ground. Both front exterior mirrors are missing, with their mounting areas and wiring exposed. The front passenger-side door has a large crease and dent, while the driver-side front door has a substantial dent and multiple creases. The driver-side edge of the hood is bent and uneven, with damaged paint and separated panel gaps. Front lamp areas are displaced, with broken surrounding components and lamp assemblies that are not seated consistently. Additional broken lower-front supports, plastic parts, and loose wiring are visible. The driver airbag has deployed from the steering wheel. The extent of any damage to the vehicle’s structure, cooling system, suspension, steering, electronic systems, or other components cannot be determined from the provided findings and should be assessed through a comprehensive physical inspection and diagnostic scan before purchase.
