The Tucson is Hyundai's compact SUV and, in recent years, its best-selling model in the United States. It competes in the heart of the American market, the segment dominated by the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V, and it has carved out a large share by offering bold style, strong value and an unusually wide choice of powertrains. Its daring design, with headlights hidden in a jewel-like grille that only reveals them when they light up, made it one of the most distinctive SUVs on the road.
The Tucson debuted in the mid-2000s as a modest small SUV and became steadily more polished with each generation. The current generation, introduced for the 2022 model year, brought the dramatic parametric styling, a spacious cabin and gasoline, hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions. A refresh added an updated interior, larger screens and a rugged XRT trim with off-road styling. US-market models are built in Alabama, and the Tucson is also produced in Korea and other markets.
The Tucson competes with the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, Mazda CX-5, Kia Sportage, Subaru Forester and Ford Escape. Its strengths include style, features, hybrid efficiency and a generous warranty. Critics have occasionally pointed to the base engine's modest power and some cheap interior materials. Recall notices have periodically affected the model, as with any high-volume vehicle, including software-related issues in recent years. Even so, owner satisfaction is high, and resale values have improved markedly as the brand's reputation has climbed.
Interest is now turning to the next Tucson and to newer XRT and off-road-oriented versions that push the SUV further into adventure territory. Look here for reviews, pricing news, recall notices and sales results, as well as comparisons with the other compact SUVs it fights for every sale, and broader stories about Hyundai's US product roadmap, hybrid production and the tariffs and factory investments that shape what the Tucson costs.
