Hyundai Tucson 2024

The 2024 Hyundai Tucson is a head-turner among compact SUVs, wearing a stylish wardrobe wrapped around an upscale-but-practical cabin. Although there’s a hybrid model that we review separately, the nonhybrid Tucson is powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder powertrain with an eight-speed automatic and either front- or all-wheel drive. While the Tucson won’t satisfy driving enthusiasts looking for gratifying handling or thrilling acceleration, it does deliver a plush ride and composed demeanor that most SUV buyers will find agreeable. Entry-level models offer a high-value package with more than just the basics as standard, and those wanting more luxury will find it on the Tucson’s SEL and Limited trims, both of which capture the feeling of a premium car without the usual added price that goes with it. These trims even offer features and that rivals like the Honda CR-V, the Toyota RAV4, and the Volkswagen Tiguan don’t, making the Tucson a natural choice if you’re after something in this class with a premium vibe.
