SEL trim. Great value. You don’t have to deal with the con of the volume knob as indicated in the KBB review. Tons of nice tech features. The LKAS on Hyundai is the best I have yet to experience. Beats Honda hands down. The MPG is GREAT for city driving. You can easily beat the 37 estimate. I have logged upwards of 39 averaging between 35 and 45 MPH. Highway driving MPG is not that great. Over 25 miles of Interstate driving on my commute and I can only get around 35 MPG. Very comfortable and smooth ride for the budget. I haven’t ran greater than 4K RPM but it seems to have plenty of pickup when accelerating onto the interstate. The added bonus of Michelin tires probably helps the ride quality as well. Wish there was more soft touch areas in the SEL trim and the shiny black plastic around the infotainment system is not fingerprint proof but the overall sleekness and nice lines inside the vehicle are amazing. The room inside is amazing and with the rear seat reclining, your back seat passengers have little to complain about. The full length moon roof really opens up the cabin as well. My only other complaints would be the absence of an actual spare tire, the MPG rating for 65 MPH continuous driving, and the quality of interior materials could have been a little better. Big pros are the city MPG ratings around 45 MPH, the design and looks, the roomy interior, and the cargo space along with having a higher towing capacity than most of its competitors. It also seems to get a little more HP and torque than most of it competitors in this Small SUV class.

Critical Review
There is only a Tire Repair Kit- compressor and a can of spray gook! Possibly OK if you pick up a nail in the center of the tread but useless if: wife is alone with kids, rim is dented by a pothole, etc. or sidewall is damaged- if AAA is called they can only tow to some gas station or dealer- then what?! - especially if not in your home area! Hyundai cheaped out or was too lazy to figure this out— Aftermarket spare kits exist but don’t fit beneath rear floor- no reviewers cover this but it’s a critical safety feature that keeps me from putting my family in this car - pretty poor oversight and lack of warning.

The 2023 Tucson PHEV has all the advantages of a hybrid and some advantages of an all-electric SUV. I purchased this vehicle in October 2025 at 35,800 miles and has 44,200 miles as of 4/1/2026. In my experience: -the Tucson can go 39 miles on battery alone, in combination city/highway driving, when weather is warm or mild. In cold weather, the gas engine turns on periodically for heat. -at public Level 2 charging stations (with a J1772 outlet), the Tucson gets to full battery charge in 2 to 4 hours. The dash display will estimate the charging time. -Mpg in hybrid mode is as advertised in warm and mild weather. -Mpg in hybrid mode is a bit less than advertised - so low 30s - in cold weather. -Reliability has been good - oil changes, a tire rotation and alignment service are the only maintenance needed so far. -compared to other hybrid SUVs, a unique feature of the Tucson PHEV is the traditional automatic transmission. Unlike a CVT, the driver can feel the gear shifts with the 6-speed automatic - the feel is the same in hybrid and EV modes.
Excellent interior space, Very good warranty, Lots of technology, All-wheel drive standard on hybrid models
After looking at countless compact SUVs, the 2026 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid was the one that truly stood out. It has noticeably better storage space than most vehicles in its class, and the interior feels surprisingly luxurious for the price with a clean, comfortable cabin design. I’m also 6'4" and fit extremely comfortably, which I couldn’t say about the Toyota RAV4 or Honda CR‑V when I tested them. It’s also just a great car to drive, smooth, quiet, and well-rounded for everyday life, and there are some great deals out there right now; I was able to get 0% financing for 60 months with a 90-day deferred payment, which made the decision even easier.
This is my first SUV, and I purchased it brand new. I am particularly impressed by the spacious interior and the advanced technology it offers. Driving in this vehicle is incredibly comfortable, and I thoroughly enjoy it.
Low mileage 20,000 miles. Garage kept in excellent condition. Heated seats. Interior is in new condition.
We bought a 2025 Hyundai Tucson hybrid in November 2024. Our overall gas mileage so far has averaged less than 30 mpg and we’ve been measuring the exact mileage ever since we bought it. That’s far below the posted sticker mileage. We got better mileage in our previous non-hybrid vehicle. Combine that with numerous quirky, annoying design features, an owner’s manual that’s worthless (the salesman even said that if we had any problems just Google a YouTube video), and poor re-sale value, this vehicle is a huge disappointment. We’ve usually kept our vehicles for over 100,000 miles, but we’re dumping this in less than two years. We’ll never, ever buy a Hyundai again.
I have only a couple thousand miles but I love it. It is so high tech that it takes time to read the manual.. I have not had any problems with so far. It is the top of the line for tucson it is the Limitrd model hybrid with all wheel drive. I bought a 3023 Sonata 2 years ago with no problems.
January 4, 2025, I purchased a 2025 Hyundai Tuscon Hybrid, Limited trim. This car is a pleasure to drive and has excellent features. However, there is one feature that could prove dangerous to a driver using the cruise control. The care has a “driver attention warning system” that will disengage the cruise control if the cabin camera located on the steering column is inadvertently blocked. When on the highway I tend to put my hand at 11 o’clock or 1 o’clock on the steering wheel. Doing so blocks the camera and disengages the cruise control because the camera cannot see my eyes. The car slows down immediately and, when on the freeway, creates a danger from the driver behind me. The software stipulates this warning system can be turned off, but the software does not honor that option when selected. Additionally, if I am wearing sunglasses with a heavy tint, the cruise control does not stay engaged, because it cannot see my eyes. Obviously, a very frustrating experience. I have had numerous conversations with the dealer and have had two conversations with Hyundai USA, both of which were elevated to a higher level, with no results. This appears to be a simple fix of letting the driver select this option (turn off driver assistance) or not. If this is important to you, do not buy this car.
Can't be any happier with this purchase! Fill up only once a month and drive is smooth and comfortable. I am 6'9" and like the freed up space of moving the gear shifter to the steering column. It frees up a lot of space. My much shorter wife likes driving this too as it doesn't feel too large but we both love the amount of storage behind us! I love all the safety features! Driving long trips on the highway is great! Do your research and you won't be disappointed!
