Explore the categories below to discover more about the features of the Hyundai Tucson Hybrid.

Reliability

Powerful Performance

You’ll enjoy a potent driving experience thanks to the dynamic duo of a 1.6L turbo engine and an electric motor that produces 231 combined net horsepower. Moving that power to the wheels is a 6-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC® while standard HTRAC All Wheel Drive (AWD) puts pep in your step to handle difficult road and weather conditions—and ever-changing traffic patterns.

Meanwhile, standard Drive Mode Select allows you to customize your experience based on the situation or your preferred driving style:

  • My Drive mode – Configure your own settings for a ride that suits your style.
  • Sport mode – Dynamic and responsive, it’s well-suited for cruising highways and open roads.
  • Snow mode – Prioritizes traction and grip for added stability when you need it most.
  • Eco mode – Maximizing fuel efficiency, it’s ideal for longer trips.

The Tucson Hybrid also offers a 2,000-pound towing capacity, helping you haul a trailer, transport your gear, and assure your title as a weekend warrior.

The four trims of the Hyundai Tucson Hybrid pair fun with functional. This track-inspired model offers rugged capabilities in the fuel-sipping form of a hybrid. Regenerative braking, which converts braking energy into electric power, helps recharge the battery, making it even more efficient.

Fuel Efficiency

In addition to helping decrease your carbon footprint, driving a hybrid is a far more efficient way to travel. The Hyundai Tucson Hybrid earns up to an EPA-estimated 38 city/38 hwy MPG.1 As a result, you’ll be able to cover more miles in between stops at the pump. In fact, thanks to the Tucson Hybrid’s 13.7-gallon tank, you can travel up to 520 miles before needing to refuel.

Meanwhile, an additional two plug-in hybrid trims offer an all-electric range of up to 33 miles.2 You can conveniently charge at home with a standard 110V/120V outlet or get a full charge in less than two hours with a 240V charger.

Drivetrain EPA-Estimated MPG
FWD 25 city/33 highway MPG*
AWD 24 city/30 highway MPG*

Looking to make a greener impact? Consider the Hyundai Tucson Hybrid. This optional variant adds an electric motor, enabling your SUV to travel with two power sources. Since the Tucson Hybrid doesn't rely solely on the internal combustion engine to power your commute, it achieves an EPA-estimated 35 city/35 highway MPG rating. It helps produce fewer tailpipe emissions—all without charging cords!**

Comfort

Ample Amenities

When you slip behind the wheel, you’ll feel like you’re seated in the lap of luxury, thanks to the standard 8-way power driver seat with power lumbar support. That seat may be draped in cloth, H-Tex® leatherette, leather, or sport leather/cloth combo (in the athletic N Line trim).

You and your copilot will remain cozy with dual automatic temperature control and standard 3-step heated front seats that are also available with ventilation. Extend that comfort to passengers riding in the back row with available heated rear seats.

Features that further distinguish the Hyundai Tucson Hybrid are apparent as soon as you enter the cabin. You’ll immediately notice a variety of sophisticated amenities often reserved for luxury models, plus plenty of room for everyone and everything on board.

Spacious Dimensions

Similar headroom and legroom measurements in both rows of the Tucson Hybrid mean everyone on board will be equally comfortable no matter where they’re seated.

Headroom (Front/Rear) Legroom (Front/Rear) Cargo Capacity (Behind Front Row/Behind Rear Row)
40.1/39.5 inches 41.4/41.3 inches 74.5/38.7 cubic feet

Even when all seats are occupied, you’ll still have 38.7 cubic feet to transport your essentials—that’s enough to hold nine carry-ons. Are you helping a friend move, or do you and your partner have more gear than passengers? Fold down the back row and you’ll open 74.5 cubic feet of space to fill. Then, easily access it all with the standard hands-free smart power liftgate.

Intelligence

Intuitive Infotainment

In addition to standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ , you’ll enjoy all the following infotainment features as standard:

  • 12.3-inch touchscreen
  • HD Radi™ with traffic flow/incident data
  • Wireless device charging
  • Dual USB ports in front and rear rows

The standard Hyundai Digital Key 2 uses an app to turn your compatible smartphone into the key of the future. Use it to lock/unlock doors, start the Tucson Hybrid’s engine, and more. You can even text a Digital Key to your friends if they return to your parked car before you do.

oday’s drivers have high-tech needs, meaning their vehicles need to supply systems that go beyond basic smartphone integration. Fortunately, Hyundai loads up the Tucson Hybrid with plenty of in-car tech that keeps you and your crew well-connected and well-protected.

Smart Safety

Of course, the most important technologies are those that help protect you and your passengers. Again, the Tucson Hybrid comes fully equipped with Hyundai SmartSense, a range of safety features to keep an eye out for you, even in those hard-to-see areas:

Fatigue-reducing features include:

  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian/Cyclist/Junction Turning Detection
  • Blind-Spot Collision Warning
  • Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist
  • Lane Keeping Assist/Lane Following Assist
  • Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go

And that’s just the beginning of its plentiful standard safety systems. Additional driver-assistive features give you increased awareness of what’s around you. Highway Driving Assist, Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control with Curve Control, and Blind-Spot View Monitor are all available for even more peace of mind.
