Experience was a 10

This vehicle is what I expected- very happy with it. I am saving a lot of money on gasoline. It is a solid, quiet ride with lots of conveniences. I would recommend this vehicle to friends and family! In fact I have.

Why Hyundai Tucson PHEV?

I was a 2013 RAV4 owner prior to the Hyundai Tucson PHEV purchase. I considered and drove the 2024 RAV4 PHEV. The RAV4 has better EV range and overall performance but I decided on the Tucson for the following reasons. It was easier to drive, quieter AND more stylish. Some complain about the lack of dials on the instrument panel and infotainment area, but I like it--it is a cleaner look and no problem once you learn button locations. I also like the push button shifters now that I have gotten used to it. (It's too bad the engineers didn't put the reverse button in back and the drive button in the front on the console). So far, I have been very pleased with the car and think I made the right decision between the RAV4 PHEV and the Tucson PHEV. I am hoping for excellent reliability and the Hyundai dealerships supporting the warranty and maintenance agreements.

Great Driving Experience

My husband and I bought this car since we already had experience with Hyundai vehicles, having owned a Sonata Hybrid and a Kona SUV in the past, and we knew we’d get a great car, an excellent warranty and outstanding service wherever we went. We originally wanted to buy an electric vehicle, but we didn’t want to worry about charging the battery on trips. After doing our research, the Tucson Plug-In Hybrid sounded like just what we wanted. After driving our new car for three weeks I can definitely say that we got a great SUV. Most of the time the car runs on electric for trips around town and into the surrounding areas. We did take one hour-long drive up into the hills so we could run out the battery. After about forty minutes of driving the engine switched over to hybrid mode and started recharging the battery. The engine also started to use the gas engine, particularly on some of the hills, but we still had 85% of our fuel when we got home from an 80 mile drive. After three weeks and 371 miles we still have 72% of the original tank of gas that we left the dealership with. Our Tucson is also great to drive. It’s very quiet and the driver assist features really help improve your driving and safety. All the controls are easy to learn to use and put everything right at your fingertips. And the seats that can either get warmer or be made to cool and ventilate are a great addition. So, to sum it up, this is a great car. It’s got plenty of space, is very comfortable, drives beautifully, looks great, and has all the connectivity, entertainment and safety features we look for in cars today.

THIS TUCSON IS AN UNEXPECTED DELIGHT

I TRADED IN AN EXCELLENT BRAND "X" HYBRID THAT ACHIEVED OVER 40MPG IN ORDER TO EXPLORE THE PHEV TECHNOLOGY. ASIDE FROM EV MODE, THE HYBRID MODE GETS ONLY ABOUT 36MPG BUT OVERALL MIXED MODE ECONOMY IS VERY GOOD. OVERALL DRIVING FUNCTION IS EXCELLENT. THE INTERIOR VISUALS, QUALITY, COMFORT, SPACIOUSNESS AND QUIETNESS ARE EXCELLENT. THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM ALLOWS CONTROL OF ABOUT ANYTHING IMAGINABLE TO PERSONALIZE VEHICLE FUNCTIONS, BUT IT TAKES A BIT OF PRACTICE AND HAVING ONLY A FEW WEEKS WITH THE CAR, SIMPLE TASKS WHILE DRIVING TAKE ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE ROAD. HAVING A FEW KNOBS TO TURN WOULD BE SAFER FOR ME. IN TRUTH, I NEED MORE TIME READING THE MANUAL . THE EV CHARGING PROCESS IS SIMPLE AND FITS OUR LIFESTYLE AND ALLOWS DAILY ELECTRIC ONLY TRIPS IN TOWN WITHOUT USING ANY GASOLINE. LONGER TRIPS SEEMLESSLY USE THE HYBRID SYSTEM. BOTTOM LINE, THIS IS A GREAT CAR WITH MY ONLY COMPLAINT BEING THAT A HEADS UP DISPLAY WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

So far it's been a learning experience

Really still getting familiar with the car; sure hope it will be a joy for a long time to come.We should have a better response after we take our first road trip which will be coming up. A trip to Arizona for a boat show.

Nice car, with a few mostly minor issues

Overall I like the car very much. I try to drive it in EV mode as much as possible, and I have yet to refill the tank after driving almost 700 miles. The cabin is very quiet in EV mode, less so when the engine is on. The downsides are: a poor instruction manual that is difficult to read and factually incorrect in some cases. Climate control system that is needlessly complex and doesn't work great (but heat is a problem I think with all PHEV vehicles). Poor audio quality even with the "Bose Premium Audio System". The biggest problem that I have would not affect 95% of the drivers out there. I have to drive a steep downhill to leave the neighborhood and if the battery is full, the engine comes on at high (3500) RPM's I think to use the engine to slow the car because it does not want the regenerative braking to charge the batteries when they are already full. Once I am down the hill, the engine stays on for about a mile (4 minutes). This is a needless waste of gas, not to mention not good for the engine to run at 3500 RPM's when cold. Hyundai could easily fix this by adding an option either in car settings or Bluelink that allows you to charge the battery just short of full (the engine never comes on during this downhill when the battery is not full) to allow capacity for the regenerative brakes to charge the battery. Hyundai Customer Care was very unhelpful when I contacted them about this, as were 2 different Hyundai service departments. Hopefully though they are working on a fix.

Vehicle Rating

I really like my new 2024 Tucson Hybrid Plug-in so far. The two areas where customer service could be better are: 1. an offer to explain the car's features from the dealer here in Palm Desert ( I purchase the car in the San Diego area) and a Hyundai technician who can explain the red and green lights of the charging system. The problem of which I have described to you at the beginning of this review. Also, your use of the English language is poor where you are asking questions about a "primary and secondary" vehicle purchase. You need to have someone rewrite that section for you.

Love this car

I bought a 2024 Hyundai Tucson PHEV. I am getting the stated 84mpg in the first 1000 miles. I love the ride, comfort, and handling. I am using wireless Apple Car Paly using a dongel. After 1000 miles, I couldn't be happier with this purchase.

Great car

The Tucson PHEV drives and handles well. It would be good if it had a larger battery to provide 50 miles on a charge and a larger gas tank; say > 15gallons. The full touch screen UI for the audio/navigation system is a little cumbersome and take some getting use to. A couple of knobs and a more intuitive interface would help.

**

I really like the plug in/gas option on the car. I use the electric feature most of the time as I drive around making short trips. The car is comfortable to drive/ride in. Reading the manual is a must for me as there are so many features to learn about. I am enjoying my new vehicle.

Rock solid car

The Tucson has a comfortable ride with good visibility and seating positions fitting five adults. We do most of our day to day driving in EV mode. We averaged 81.4 mpg for the first 1,000 of owning this SUV.
