The 2026 Tucson Hybrid continues to turn heads with its bold grille, angular LED lighting signatures, and sleek profile. Functional design cues like active air flaps in the grille help improve efficiency, while details like a hands-free smart liftgate and roof rails add real-world convenience.

Performance: Hybrid Power

At the heart of the 2026 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid is a 1.6-liter turbocharged GDI 4-cylinder engine paired with a 44.2 kW electric motor and a 1.49 kWh lithium-ion polymer battery. Together, they produce 226 total system horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. This hybrid powertrain offers responsive acceleration and smooth power delivery, especially useful in city traffic and highway merging.

Unlike many hybrids that use CVTs, the Tucson Hybrid features a six-speed automatic transmission for a more natural driving feel. Standard HTRAC all-wheel drive provides extra confidence in wet or uneven terrain, making it a great pick for both urban and adventure-ready drivers.

Despite the power, fuel efficiency is still top-tier. The Blue trim gets an EPA-estimated 38 mpg city and 38 mpg highway, while the SEL Convenience and Limited offer 37 mpg combined.
