Why wait for a RAV 4 Hybrid? | 2025 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid Review

Hyundai have update it's very popular mid-sized SUV. AND you can buy it as a HYBRID now! I wanted to find some flaws with this car...but unfortunately Hyundai haven't done anything drastic and simply improved upon an already very good family SUV. So what's changed and is it really something that can rival the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid?

The hybrid Hyundai system is very different to the Honda and Toyota systems in that they have a external rubber belt driven starter generator to start the petrol engine and going by how many times this happens go to be a reliability concern.

What's the starting price of a hybrid version?

[SuperMattb]

Not a huge economy advantage over the old faithful diesel! Highway I get low 5's mixed driving low to mid 6L/100km

Strange, in Poland Tucson has rear seats in three parts 40/20/40 configuration.

But still those stupid tooth-like tail lights :(

Totally lacking info like battery size, WLTP etc.

It's not a hybrid engine, it's a hybrid powertrain.

İts mild hybrit, wich is actually normal gasoline engine (fake for nature standarts), 10-11 liters/100 km . Rav4 goes elektric if you dont pass 60 km

Why wait? Because Toyota has the best hybrid system on the market

[PilipinasKongMahal]

Perfect car except for poor mileage compared with CRV-hybrid and RAV4 despite being smaller and slower. But I think price compensates

steering wheel is on the wrong side of the car.
