2023 Tucson PHEV

Overall, I love the car. It did have a major engine failure just 6 months int my ownership, which was pretty disturbing. I was without the car for 3 weeks. But once it was repaired, I haven't had any significant issues.

Overall, I love this care. While not the sportiest looking car, it is well built and has every feature I could think of needing.

Advanced features and a reliable car

I enjoy my vehicle. Many nice features. The plug in hybrid allows for many daily trips to be covered using only the battery. Had an emmision issue early due to a bad sensor , but it was handled under warranty. Also had an issue with a strut on the liftgate that was also covered One major concern was the inverter going but thankfully covered under power train warranty . Still concerning that it failed under 45K miles

2023 PHEV Tucson

We liked the vehicle, however, ultimately Hyundai had to buy it back because of hybrid drive issues. That said we ultimately purchased the same vehicle except it’s a 2025 because of how Hyundai handled the buyback process.

Practical, lots of features, works well for my needs.

I wanted to go electric, but as we make 4 to 5 trips of 450 - 500 miles annually, was worried about range and added times to that trip with a full EV. This has been the perfect compromise. Around town and to and from work the 33 mile all electric range is ample, with mpg per the trip computer > 800 mpg! We really only need to put in gas for our road trips, and on those we get ~ 34 mpg highway (very speed dependent, if sticking < 60 - 65 mph, mpg drops to low 30s if going faster). The car has lots of great features (love the blindspot view monitor, surround cameras, and the ability to back if out of a tight parking space using just the key fob.). It is very quiet with a comfortable smooth ride, and acceleration is fine, and it is easy to keep in electric mode. Minor complaints: Would prefer more knobs to touch screen for the infotainment and climate control (think have been improved starting 2025), heat pump would be nice as heat kicks in the gas engine, and gas tank is on the smaller side, limiting range. (But we generally stop several times on our road trips to let our dog run around, so not a big deal to refuel.) Overall has been a great choice for our needs, and so far no mechanical issues.

Solid construction, some design flaws

The Tucson is a solid choice in its class. Local driving has great gas milage. The premium features, such as heated steering wheel and cooling front seats are really nice. Harsher weather, such as below freezing, accentuate some design flaws, such as placement of windshields (they do not have a heating element, making them freeze to the windshield), and the windshield can get ice buildup on the inside. For most other conditions, pretty good to great car.

Love my hybrid.

I do mostly only around town driving. I charge my car once a day. Most months I only spend $40 a month. Had a problem with transmission, but it sounds like it is a common problem.

Awesome except for the video display

This car is the most fun to drive of any I have ever owned! It's quiet, VERY roomy compared to my old Forester, especially for the driver. My friends love riding in it. Did I mention QUIET? It drives on the highway like a much bigger car. It's smooth, it's powerful, and gets great mileage. The safety features like lane assist work GREAT and are integrated IMO better than any of the (many) rental cars I have driven. The self-braking cruise control is WONDERFUL and is gonna prevent a lot of wrecks. The video display works, but it's dorky. You have to take your eyes off the road to find the right virtual buttons to adjust the radio or HVAC. This is common in vehicles of this year, but it's stupid and inconvenient. ALL manufacturers need to go back to making consoles with tactile feedback so we can keep eyes on the road at all times.

Airbag failure

Unfortunately, our 2023 Hyundai was totaled when it was struck at the right front bumper and wheel well. There was no airbag deployment and even though the front axle was split in two, the vehicle kept dinging advising that the lead vehicle had driven away. Our car had less than 3K miles on it. Heartbreaking! We still have concerns about airbag performance in our new Hyundai.

More than satisfied

Purchased this plug in hybrid because it was way more comfortable than getting in and out of my Tesla Model S. My range anxiety went away and my daily use is now limited to battery only. The AC and other amenities are top notch and more comfortable than my 2016 Tesla. Charging overnight yields a >100 mpg in coastal Delaware. 70 mpg lifetime.

Great combination of gas and electric

Comfortable and solid ride with just the right amount of tech. Although not self driving, the driving assist helps out on long trips making them more bearable. Most of my commute is less than 30 miles, so I hardly ever use the gas engine. Gas to battery usage is seamless and unnoticeable.
