The 2023 Hyundai Tucson uses sleek styling to set itself apart from its quiet compact SUV rivals. That doesnt mean Tucson sacrifices practicality or capability. It made them proud. Hyundai has taken a holistic approach to the Tucson offering a range of trims and powertrains including hybrids and plug-in hybrids giving the Tucson a wide range of appeal. The entry-level drivetrain is his 25-liter four-cylinder but hybrid and plug-in hybrid models use a turbocharged 16-liter four-cylinder backed by an electric motor. This combination gives you more power. With a well-equipped entry-level Tucson model and luxurious equipment from mainstream to luxury the 2023 Hyundai Tucson is a great car. Its actually pretty funny. But the drivetrain leaves a lot to be desired. The standard model has a 25-liter naturally aspirated engine that produces 187 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque youd expect from a modern car. These numbers put the 2023 Hyundai Tucson firmly in the middle of the pack. However it produces slow acceleration reaching 60 mph in 96 seconds. Additionally the combined fuel efficiency of 26 mpg is unmatched by the competition. Where the 2023 Tucson shines is in its interior. It offers a finely crafted cabin that looks more luxurious than other models in this segment. The center console reduces the drivers legroom but the headroom is generous. Luggage space is 387 cubic feet behind the second row and 803 cubic feet when the second row is folded. Theres also a new 80-inch infotainment he touchscreen thats intuitive and easy to use. Additionally a standard 88-inch he touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is integrated into the instrument cluster. A larger 103-inch screen with built-in navigation is an option. So are features like SiriusXM satellite radio and an upgraded Bose stereo. Other high-tech features include the Hyundai Digital Key smartphone app which provides lock and unlock and remote start capabilities. The 2023 Tucson has many advanced safety features. Automatic Emergency Braking Warning Collision Warning Lane Departure Warning Lane Assist monitors rear blind spots and also features automatic emergency braking in reverse gear.
