2024 Hyundai Tucson Plug-In Hybrid

The 2024 Hyundai Tucson is a five-seat compact SUV that comes standard with a 187-horsepower, 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, an eight-speed automatic transmission, and a choice of front- or all-wheel drive. Direct rivals include the Ford Escape, Honda CR-V, Mazda CX-50 and Toyota RAV4. For shoppers interested in significantly better fuel efficiency, the Tucson is also available as a hybrid and plug-in hybrid; the latter delivers an EPA-estimated 33 miles of electric driving range.

What’s New on the 2024 Hyundai Tucson?
The Tucson was redesigned for 2022, but it still receives a few notable updates this year. All Tucsons now come standard with rear side airbags and seat belt reminders for all occupants, and haptic steering-wheel feedback is now included with lane departure steering assist and blind spot warning. A 10.25-inch touchscreen is newly standard on all but the SE and SEL trim levels, and the sporty N-Line trim, previously available only with the gas-only powertrain, is now offered only on the Tucson Hybrid.

Should I Buy the 2024 Hyundai Tucson?
The 2024 Hyundai Tucson remains a great choice for SUV shoppers who want lots of value and everyday versatility wrapped in an eye-catching shape — even though the standard four-cylinder engine gets breathless when you ask too much of it. While straight-line speed is meager with the base powertrain, overall fuel economy is respectable. For added performance and even better fuel economy, the hybrid and plug-in hybrid variants are worth considering. Just keep in mind they are thousands of dollars more expensive than a comparable conventional Tucson.
