Great features, great to drive

I love this car. A few tiny details I’d change, but overall, it’s been 4 months of fun and very few trips to the gas pump.

Mostly Great Experience, but SCC & Regenerative Braking have issues.

I'm very glad to have been able to lease the 2025 Tucson PHEV in South Carolina (first year that it's available here), especially in the Limited Trim which offers a Head Up Display (HUD) and Surround View Camera (both of which are imperative for my driving). However, function of the Smart Cruise Control (SCC) has been extremely erratic and my local Hyundai dealership has not been able to fix it. I have previously owned many Hyundai vehicles with SCC (including my wife's 2025 Tucson HEV) and the SCC in my PHEV is obviously defective to the extent that it creates a safety hazard when it doesn't properly operate. Also, the Regenerative Braking system in my PHEV (compared with my wife's 2025 Tucson HEV) is very laggy to engage and the degree of engine braking is not consistent from ride to ride. Other than these two nagging issues, this is a great car for those seeking a state of the art PHEV.

2025 PHEV Tuscon

Less then 2 weeks the sunroof exploded. Less then three months the vehicle communication board needs to be replaced. Will be in the shop almost 3 weeks to get part.

The best of both worlds

We traded in our (another brand) EV for our Hyundai Plug-in Tucson after returning from a 7,000 mile cross country trip. The U.S. infrastructure just isn’t there😢. Our Tucson allows us to run EV for short trips and the security of being able to run hybrid for long trips and pull into any gas station anywhere to refuel.

The quiet and quick Tucson Unlimited PHEV

We purchased the Tucson in March and are extremely pleased. The ride is soft and quiet, just whatever we're looking for. There tons of power and response is quick when you ask for it. We're enjoying all the electronics and learning more every time we drive. We love the long display.

Everything is awesome except the hybrid part

Interior is amazing. Exterior is sleek and has a unique design. 24hrs to charge at home is bad. Finding a charging station is also bad. Go with fully hybrid or regular automotive.

Very positive feeling about this vehicle

Don’t know what to say. It’s early in my experience with this vehicle. Many technical things to learn it takes time but all in all very solid well built vehicle with great handling pick up and comfort. I’m glad I bought it except I am in the early stages of charging the batteries Which might not have been worth getting the plug-in maybe should’ve just got the hybrid.

Love driving again because of this car

This car is quiet and smooth riding. I love the electric motor feel when starting from zero speed. It feels refined and the power is well managed. The exterior looks great and the interior is well finished with great features on the Limited.

Almost great ... but not quite

1. Overall: Very good, very comfortable. 2. Too much "nanny" mode, e.g. can't shut off reminders about "take a break" 3. Door lock/unlock via proximity to key fob or iPhone is buggy and unreliable. 4. Drive system isn't as smooth as other EV's (such as our Tesla) when starting uphill from a stop or moving slowly uphill. 5. Surprising amount of front-end dive during emergency stop from 70mph. 6. Owner's manual is for all Tuscon models, not just plug-in hybrid. That makes it hard to look things up. (And the index in the manual is not adequate.) Example: how to put car into mode for automatic car-wash.

Would have given a 5 but AC doesn't work consistently air not cold

Range is about 33 miles. Very nice ride, we love everything but the air conditioning, problem is not consistent and service saw the issue the first time but it was late in the day, so I had to come back early in the day and they couldn't get it to act up. It continues to work some days and some others not. Will take it back for service again.

We’ve had a series of bad experiences within a period of three weeks.

The car had to be serviced three times because the car would not start or an engine light went on - or both. It appears to be a defective 12 V battery which the dealer finally replaced after our third visit. This was unexpected and disappointing.
