2026 Tucson Hybrid
Generally I am very satisfied with this vehicle. My major complaint, and a real weakness, is the backup camera. The image quality is low and it is always exposed , which means it becomes covered with road grime and must consistently be cleaned or it is not usable at all. You should take a note from VW. They locate the backup camera under the logo. When the car is placed in reverse, the logo tilts up allowing the camera to function. Once the car is placed in drive, the logo closes, protecting the camera. Another issue is the height of the center console. It is a little bit too high, and impairs the movement of my elbow when cornering to the right. My only other real complaint is that the gas engine revs at inappropriate times. The RPMs will rev up anywhere between 1.1 to 1.9 when sitting at a stoplight with foot off the gas entirely. They will also rev up as high as 3.3 when going downhill with no pressure on the gas pedal. This appears to occur primarily when the engine is cold. In fairness, the car is new and I have not had a mechanic look at the issue yet. It may just be a tune up issue. At less then 3000 miles, it is too early to accurately rate reliability.
