After picking up my new Tucson Plugin, I drove 500+ miles back home and it handled great. The lane correction was there in case I got drowsey but luckily, it didn't happen. The battery was not charged for me at pickup so I drove home on hybrid only. The mileage increased with each stop. Two things that are not there as with my Sonata Hybrid Limited (and this is a limited also) is 600 miles possible before stopping for gas and the center above sunglass holder! Also, I had to read the manual to find out that the charger is set to 6amp charging with takes forever to charge the battery. I know now that you can charge at 6, 8, 10, or 12 amp speed. Love the automatic windshield wipers! Even better that intermittent setting. Apple play is great with cordless phone charging as well.

Nowhere near as fuel efficient as expected

We bought the Tucson Ultimate Plug In. Definitely not what we expected. Overall a nice riding vehicle but that’s about it. Too many screen distractions. GPS is horrible - we were told we would need to upgrade the GPS at a cost of $400…we just got the car (new) 6 months ago. Ongoing discussion with Hyundai. Not good on fuel at all and we alternate using the battery. Drove it to Florida and it seemed we were constantly filling it. Only 53km on electric. Nowhere on cluster can you check oil life and even though using synthetic oil, has to be changed every 8,000km. Already had a thermostat replacement (9,000km in). Does not compare to our other car - a Honda Civic. Would not recommend to anyone nor would I buy another Hyundai.

No heat in EV mode!

I bought this, my 3rd Hyundai, as our main about-town vehicle to take advantage of the all-electric mode but still have the option for hybrid mode. But there's no heat, at least not n EV mode. It's been in the shop 34 days and I've only owned it for 59 days! Tech Line says that's "as-designed" but given the fact this never comes up in reviews makes me very suspicious. Even the dealership doesn't buy that. Why, in 2024, would someone WILLINGLY design a car w/o heat? I really like everything else about this car, but no heat in Oregon winters is a deal-breaker!

A great PHEV with an acceptable EV range

The Tucson has been trouble free and the complementary 3 years of maintenance is a plus. The LIMITED trim has all the bells and whistles available and they all work well. Its just under 183" length puts it under most mid size sedans and parking is easy with all of the cameras. The only downside is the MPG in HEV mode on the highway and a small gas tank. At highway speeds the MPG hovers around 25 at best and nowhere near the 36 advertised. The 11 gal. tank limits the range and even with the battery fully charged I have yet to see 300 miles between fill ups without the "low gas" alert warning.

Very satisfied. Great acceleration, good mileage, rides very smoothly but with good road feel. Takes a long time to recharge at home.
