On long road trips, I think the plug-in hybrid battery will last about 40 miles (assuming no recharging). After that, you’re driving on the 1.6L gas engine, which is smaller than the 2.5L engine in the gas-only model. So with the plug-in hybrid, does this mean you’re stuck with lower performance on long road trips?
I have a deposit on a Rav4 XSE hybrid, but this Tucson hybrid does look interesting. Hyundai is offering 0% financing with no payment due for 90 days. That's a very attractive offer. Some things to consider: the Rav4 hybrid gets better fuel economy than the Tucson. 41/38 vs 35/35. That can be significant if you do lots of city driving. The Tucson's engine uses GDI technology and has a turbocharger. These could increase maintenance cost in the future. However, Hyundai offers a 10 year/100,000 mile warranty, which is hard to beat. One last thing: I may have to wait 3 months before my Rav4 hybrid is ready. The 2025 Tucson is already on the dealership lots. Update...The Tucson hybrid does not have a spare tire. Since I plan on camping and driving on mountain roads this is a deal breaker for me.
Yes we have a 2024 Tucson Hybrid - it rips off the line and provides excellent instant power on the highway. It is zippy and fun to drive. You sorta feel faster than all the cars around you. It's not a sports car but almost feels like I got one for free with the purchase of my hybrid SUV.

@@ImCaptainCabbageHi, Did you get your car? How is it? I am planning to buy one but still doing my research. This is my first new car.
Same here, I rented the '25 SEL model last week and loved it! I want a blue Limited FWD
Great review thank you
So, if i understand correctly, if we want a bit of a nudge on the highway the Hibrid is the way to go?
