Hybrid car with electric range

The car drives as a hybrid car with electric range. The car does not feel like an electric car with gas backup. There is little effort to maximize brake regeneration and it is difficult to maximize this feature within the settings, if it is even possible. The electric range is not listed in terms of miles, only a gas-like bar, but the electric range runs out when it reaches ~1/4 of the bar remaining, rather than an empty bar, so you don't know when your electric range is going to run out.

Three years with the PHEV Tucson

This is a great "gateway" to full EV.

Great buy. Well appointed where it counts. No gremlins.

Great value for a vehicle. The battery/hybrid engine combo is the smartest way to maximize the flexibility of the vehicle. First 31 one of pure battery covers a standard day of running errands. When the hybrid engine kicks in, you can still enjoy 35 mpg and travel anywhere you want to go. With the exception of the giant bus backing sound, there are no real detractors.

Failed vehicle

We really like our PHEV Tucson. The features are nice and it drives well. The problem is we have had the vehicle refuse to start 2 times. We've had the car for about 19 months and it has about 8900 miles, so relatively new and low mileage. The first time was about 9 months into our lease, and we came out to the parking lot and the car would not start, and there was nothing we could do to get it to go. We called, and Triple AAA came. The driver had less luck than we did and ended up towing it to the dealership. It was on a weekend, so he just dropped it off. On Monday I called the dealership and they indicated they would get to the car in order it was received and it might take a day or two. On day 3 (we were without a car), the dealership called and said the car was ready. When I went to pick it up they said they couldn't find anything wrong with it, and they just went out and started it up. Supposedly ran through all the diagnostics and could find nothing. Obviously, we were worried it might happen again. On July 5th of this year, we had been staying at a resort in Park City, Ut. When we checked out and went to leave, the car was completely dead. We could not get it to open, we had to figure out how to work the manual key, and when we finally got the door open, we went through all the things we were supposed to, i.e., putting the key fob next to the starter button, putting our phones on the charging pad. Nothing. Luckily, we were able to get some jumper cables and figure out how to jump the battery. It started, and we were able to drive home. We were ready to call a tow truck and had talked to the front desk about getting a tow truck into the garage. We got an appointment for the following day with the dealership. They ran all the diagnostics, looked at the history, etc., but could find nothing wrong. So, we are stuck worrying about the next time we will be stranded. Very disconcerting. That's why we only give it a 3, Perhaps that is too high. We like the car, but not sure the worry is worth having the car.

Tucson PHEV Is a Great Electric Car For Local Drives

The Tucson PHEV is great for local electric drives, and comfortable for long distance driving.

Good car, not enough electric miles, and terrible to use with a bike rack.

Very good, with a few flaws

Happy to drive this car, though it does have a learning curve. Some features could be more flexible, but all in all, the experience has been positive.
