The SE and SEL come with an 8-inch touchscreen, while an upgrade 10.25-inch widescreen unit is standard on everything else (plus the SEL’s Convenience package). Besides upholstery and color choices, the center stack controls actually differ. There are some key differences based on trim level, however. Plastics and switchgear are of a high quality as well. We especially like the dash-width vents and cloth trim. In a segment where many competitors go with a more functional aesthetic, the Hyundai Tucson is more stylish, more tech-focused and more premium. What are the Tucson interior and in-car technology like?

This is also the first full model year for the plug-in hybrid, the sportier Tucson N Line and the more rugged Tucson XRT. Interior & Technology | Passenger & Cargo Space | Performance & Fuel Economy What it's like to drive | Pricing & Trim Levels | Crash Ratings & Safety Features What's new for 2023?įorward collision warning and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability are now standard on every trim level, while all but the base trim now comes standard with a hands-free liftgate and wireless device charging. And if A LOT is not what you’re going for stylistically, the 2023 Kia Sportage is mechanically related. We’d likely choose another compact SUV over a gas-only Tucson, but the Hybrid? Definitely check that out. Unfortunately, the base engine is a real slug, and worse, is the only way to get the more characterful N Line and XRT trim levels. The Tucson Plug-In Hybrid steps all that up even further. The Tucson Hybrid’s powertrain is also an all-star, uniquely combining a turbocharged engine, electric motor and six-speed automatic to create a powertrain that is surprisingly powerful and refined, thrifty as expected, and pleasingly normal to drive.

It has a nicer interior than both, too, with much better infotainment and safety technology. It’s really big, for one, besting the cargo capacity of the Toyota RAV4 and last-gen CR-V, and offering similar passenger-hauling capability. Maybe too much, but hey, better than dull.Īnd, importantly, all of the above adorns a solid entry in the ultra-competitive compact SUV segment. The wheel arches are angular rather than actual arches, there are diamond shapes embossed in the rear bumper, and LED taillights that dangle from a full-width light bar like Dracula fangs. In a segment long known for bland anonymity, the Tucson is an explosion of sharp creases, odd bulges and a smiling grille that lights up on its edges like a Vegas marquee.

You have to give the designers of the 2023 Hyundai Tucson credit: They really went for it. The good looks here are just icing on a well-baked cake.Pros: All-star hybrid powertrain excellent tech huge cargo area high-quality cabin Cons: Sad sack base engine some weird interior controls a bit blah to drive It’s a genuine competitor, stacking up wins for its satisfying powertrain and quiet, comfortable ride. With a premium look inside and out, and a driving experience that’s better than expected, the 2023 Tucson Hybrid is more than a compelling alternative to its best-selling Toyota and Honda rivals. As well-equipped as it is, the Tucson Hybrid represents a better value and it drives just as well as the Honda, perhaps even better.Ģ023 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid Ultimate Photo by Brendan McAleer Summing up

But then, it is far better equipped than the basic Toyota, with heated leather seats and steering wheel, a power tailgate, and a host of driver assists.Īt Honda, the CR-V Hybrid comes in the top-level Touring trim at $48,890 before freight and fees. At $40,099 to start and $42,749 for this Ultimate trim model, the Tucson Hybrid is significantly more expensive than the entry-level Toyota RAV4 Hybrid.
