2024 Hyundai Tucson
Starting at $28.585

Highs Fashion-forward styling, upper trims do their best impression of a luxury car, comfortable ride.
Lows Lazy acceleration, unintuitive push-button shifter, still waiting on that hi-performance Tucson N.
Verdict The Tucson's styling still turns heads while the rest of this compact SUV's package continues to offer plenty of value and practicality.

Overview
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.

What's New for 2024?
For 2024 the Tucson brings new safety features to the table, such as all-occupant seatbelt reminders, rear side airbags, and steering-wheel haptic feedback to alert the driver to warnings from the lane-keeping assist and blind-spot monitoring systems. Hampton Gray will now be available in all trims, and the XRT model gains a black headliner; models equipped with ambient interior lighting now offer light shows in 64 different colors. The 10.3-inch touchscreen will now be standard on SEL Convenience, XRT, and Limited trims while SEL trims and up will now feature dual automatic temperature control with an auto-defogging function. The N-Line trim has been dropped from the nonhybrid Tucson lineup, but reappears on the hybrid model.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
SE: $28,585
SEL: $30,735
SEL Convenience: $33,235
XRT: $35,410
Limited: $37,845

We suggest the SEL Convenience trim as it offers a great balance between features and price. It comes standard with heated front seats, blind-spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, a sunroof, and a 10.3-inch digital gauge display, among other niceties. A rugged looking XRT model is available but buyers hoping for a high-performance turbocharged four-cylinder under the hood will be disappointed to learn that this trim amounts to nothing more than an appearance package.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance
A 187-hp 2.5-liter four-cylinder is standard and comes with an eight-speed automatic and either front or all-wheel drive. The Tucson offers adequate pep for both city driving and highway passing maneuvers, but lead-footed drivers will yearn for more power. At our test track, our all-wheel-drive Limited test vehicle made it to 60 mph in 8.8 seconds. The more powerful hybrid and plug-in hybrid models (reviewed separately) both feel quicker but don't expect Toyota RAV4 Prime-level acceleration from either of them. While the Tucson is no sports car, its handling is confident, its steering is reasonably crisp, and its ride is agreeable. What's most striking about the Tucson's driving demeanor is how quiet and refined it feels when cruising; it's these traits that give the SUV a sense of luxury that is rare to find in this class.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
The Tucson sports a simplistic but modern dashboard design with a digital gauge display, a push-button shifter, and a touch-sensitive control panel for the climate-control system and infotainment. Hyundai's flagship Palisade SUV and the brand's recently redesigned Sonata and Elantra sedans have served as a sort of watershed moment for the company's interior designs, and the new Tucson continues the trend with a thoughtfully arranged interior filled with quality materials and luxury features. The Tucson's rear seat space and cargo area are both larger than the outgoing model, providing more passenger comfort and practicality. Behind the hybrid's back row, we fit nine carry-on suitcases, and the luggage capacity rose to 22 bags with the seatbacks stowed.
