For 2022, passenger volume has increased to a max of 108.2 cubic feet. The interior is attractive, modern, and uses high-quality materials almost exclusively.

Regenerative braking also helps to feed power back to the battery, further extending the range.

Equipped with standard HTRAC all wheel drive, the 2022 Hyundai Tucson can take you wherever you want to go. Additionally, you’ll have a fun experience driving there with e-Handling technology, which combines the hybrid electric motor and traction control system to give you better cornering performance.
