Gas, hybrid or plug-in hybrid?
Hybrid and plug-in power is the biggest theme, raised in 865 comments. The gas Tucson uses a 2.5-litre four-cylinder with 187 hp and an eight-speed automatic. The hybrid pairs a 1.6-litre turbo four with an electric motor for a combined 231 hp and 271 lb-ft, with a conventional six-speed automatic rather than a CVT. The plug-in hybrid makes 268 hp and offers up to 51 km (32 mi) of electric driving, according to Hyundai Canada. One viewer liked that detail: "A hybrid without a CVT? You're singin' my song."
Drive the gas model and the hybrid back to back on the same route, and if you can charge at home, ask to try the plug-in hybrid as well.
