Buying a PHEV will be your best decision ever

I just put 765 miles on 8.2 gallons over probably about 6 weeks. I LOVE THIS CAR!! Comfy, great ride, all the bells and whistles you want. And a lay-flat phone charger in the center console right next to you is simply amazing. So happy!

2026 Tucson PHEV Review

Overall the Hyundai is great value and quality for a lower price than similar competitive models, however the Limited does lack parity on some features.

Hyundai Tucson Plug-In Hybrid

Excellent vehicle choice for one who averages less than 35 miles of driving per day. Unlike the Santa Fe plug-in (2023), the Tucson uses only electric and doesn't use much gas (if any) at higher speeds. This leads to really long periods of not needing to go to a gas station. The build of this Tucson model feels more solid than the previous model of three years ago. The interior setup is very similar to the all electric Ioniq 5 which is very nice. It's exterior is top notch as well!

So far, very nice

Great car so far. Very comfortable, handles and rides well, and very economical. For day-to-day driving, I charge it from my solar panels and thus spend zero on gas.

Lemon law car

Front side and rear sensors malfunctioning to point of endangerment. Emergency brakes come on when not supposed to slammed on brakes on freeway. Sensors do not detect correctly and I have actually driven this car less than 10 times. It has been at roseville hyindai more than I have had it.

We Love our Tucson PHEV!

We enjoy the best of both worlds and love how little gas we are using daily and weekly. A charge gets me to and from work and only have to use gas for a few miles if at all. Also, the car looks great and drives great. It feels solid and I can feel the AWD. We are very happy with our purchase.

Car drives well but battery health at 30% and dealer can’t help

Had the car for 2 months and it depicts a really poor battery health and trouble charging on the lvl 1 charger. Put in a case but haven’t heard back with Hyundai since the dealer hasn’t been helpful

Hyundai Tucson

Overall, a very good plug-in hybrid. I love all the safety features. Very comfy ride. Lots of space. My only complaint is the the charger that comes with the only charges at the rate of about one hour per mile (ie, a full charge from 0 to 100 takes about 30 hours (for about 30 hours of electric driving). Chargepoint stations are scarce in my area. I therefore bought a Level 2 charger for my garage . Finally. because the plug-in Tucson is new, sales and service people can’t always answer questions without doing research

Almost perfect but some short falls

This car has almost everything I'd want in a vehicle: hybrid power-train that's plug-in rechargable. It has air vents for the rear seats, and Apple CarPlay works. But there are a few short falls that seem unnecessary: 1) No rear facing virtual enging sound system speaker. The sound level when the car is reversing under EV power is stupid. I worry about disturbing my neighbors when backing into my garage at night. 2) The automatic collision avoidance system is too harsh. I have had a couple of incidents already where it felt like I would get rear ended because the braking action is so sudden and strong. There is no way to turn it off. The system is myopitc in that it only see what's in front. It can't tell the difference between a wall or a car stopped to allow a pedestrian to pass (and will start moving again soon). No easy way to turn it off. 3) The steering always feels like it is being stopped too soon. For a vehcile this size, I feel like it's turning radius the same as a car 50% longer. 4) The center console spot for where a smart phone would rest is not thermally conductive and consequently lets my iPhone get super-hot. Often it feels like there is a heat source in the center console somewhere.

We really enjoy our Tucson plug in. We bought it right before the gas prices went crazy.

Great car

I love this car. From the plug in electric, which allows me to use only electricity for everyday driving, to the heads up display with 360 degree cameras with blind spot redundancies. The car is safe, efficient and a joy to drive.

Wednesday's Review

Very satisfied with plug-in vehicle. We power our home with solar meaning we can drive in and around for $0. The car is more quiet than we expected. Fairly nimble handling. Very comfortable.
