Hyundai Tucson<\/strong><\/a> Plug-in, as with any hybrid vehicle. Hyundai\u2019s version will deliver 80 MPG driving on electric\/gas, and 35 MPG on gas. The battery can be completely charged in about two hours (with a 240V outlet) and will take you up to 33 miles going electric (the total overall range is more than 400 miles). In other words, your investment in the Hyundai Tucson Plug-in will earn you a hefty return on fuel savings.<\/p>\nAn Impressive Legacy<\/h3>\n
The Hyundai Tucson Plug-in is a worthy inheritor of Hyundai\u2019s impressive safety legacy. In fact, Hyundai\u2019s latest entry in the SUV field claimed the top spot in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety rankings for 2022. Most of Hyundai\u2019s safety features come standard on the Tucson Plug-in hybrid model.
\nDriver assistance features include driver-attention warning, lane-maintaining warning, forward collision assistance, blind-spot collision avoidance, and more. And don\u2019t forget Hyundai\u2019s Highway Drive-Assist semi-autonomous driving package.<\/p>\n
Bigger and Better<\/h3>\n
If you look closely at the 2022 Hyundai Tucson Plug-in, you might get the sense that the 2022 model is bigger than recent versions, and you\u2019d be correct. It\u2019s approximately six inches long and a tad wider than the 2021 model. That translates into slightly more legroom and cargo space (the Hyundai Tucson Plug-in seats five adults).<\/p>\n
In fact, Hyundai claims that the new Plug-in is one of the biggest SUVs in its class, with more than 108 cubic feet of passenger space and nearly 40 cubic feet of baggage room. The exterior\u2019s svelte, symmetrical look is accentuated by half-mirror running lights that become visible when lit. The wider taillight is also visible only when activated.<\/p>\n
New Tech and Safety in the Tucson Plug-in<\/h3>\n
Passenger and cargo space aren\u2019t the only features that have gotten bigger. At eight inches, the control touchscreen is an inch larger than last year\u2019s version and controls Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Don\u2019t worry if you and your significant other own two different kinds of mobile devices because two phones can connect at the same time.<\/p>\n
Pricing<\/h3>\n
The SEL all-wheel drive stickers for $34,750, with the Limited all-wheel-drive trim coming in at $42,500. Both are priced slightly below fair-market value, making the Hyundai Tucson Plug-in a good investment, with abundant interior space, a good travel range, and a pleasing new exterior.<\/p>\n
All in all, it is a good SUV<\/strong><\/a> buy for the money, especially so if you add in Hyundai\u2019s typically strong warranty package. You get a 60-month\/60,000-mile full warranty, a 120-month\/100,000-mile powertrain warranty, as well as corrosion and maintenance warranties. If you choose to go hybrid, rest assured Hyundai has you covered in every aspect, from safety to economy and technology.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
