About the 2024 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid

Our scoring places the 2024 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid at 8.2/10 overall, which translates to a Recommended rating for this hybrid. Its strongest dimension is Safety at 8.9/10, while Performance at 6.9/10 is where it trails the competition most noticeably. It's a solid all-rounder that delivers across most dimensions without obvious deal-breakers.

Reliability and safety are the two dimensions that matter most for long-term ownership costs. We score reliability at 8.3/10 — better than most direct rivals, if short of the segment's best. The 8.9/10 safety score puts it near the top of the class on this dimension; the official trim-level results at nhtsa.gov are worth a final check.

Performance at 6.9/10 is a genuine liability and a score that should factor heavily into any buying decision. The powertrain and chassis dynamics trail class rivals by a meaningful margin — don't overlook it. The cabin tech earns 8.0/10 — infotainment, smartphone integration, and driver-assistance are all close to the best this class offers.

Priced from $34,575–$45,673, 38 MPG, seating 5, the Hyundai Tucson Hybrid sits in the mid-market bracket of the hybrid segment. Value is where it presses its advantage — 8.8/10, meaning the feature set and quality outrun the asking price. At 2 years old, it's recent enough that the core feature set holds up well against current competition.

Our take: The 2024 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid is a solid, well-rounded hybrid that covers the essentials without obvious deal-breakers. The main caveat is performance — worth checking if those dimensions are priorities for you. For most buyers in this segment, it's a safe, dependable choice.
