Redesigned interior and infotainment

The 2025 Tucson interior may feature the biggest upgrades of all, thanks to a more open-feeling design and a higher-tech yet easier-to-use infotainment interface. This cabin glow-up incorporates a redesigned panoramic curved display that integrates an available 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and an enlarged 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment display. A redesigned center stack includes the addition of supplementary knobs and switchgear for frequent-use controls including audio volume and tuning, along with revamped HVAC controls for greatly improved ergonomics. The center console, steering wheel and door-panel accents have also been redesigned for both fresh appeal and enhanced usability. A new dashboard tray located above the glovebox adds even more storage space for front-seat passengers.

Diverse Smartstream™ powertrain family line-up

The 2025 Tucson comes standard with a Smartstream™ 2.5-liter, direct- and multi-port-injected gasoline engine. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder boasts up to 187¹ horsepower at 6,100 rpm and 178¹ lb.-ft. of torque at 4,000 rpm thanks to high-efficiency combustion. The eight-speed automatic transmission mated to the standard 2.5-liter I4 provides quick and crisp shifts for an engaging yet efficient driving experience.

Hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains

2025 Tucson hybrid and plug-in models now offer driver-adjustable levels of regenerative braking for improved control and comfort. The Hybrid powertrain's direct-injected 1.6-liter turbocharged gasoline engine produces up to 178¹ horsepower and 195¹ lb.-ft. of torque, while total hybrid system output is up to 231¹ horsepower. This hybrid architecture also produces up to 258¹ lb.-ft. of torque thanks to a powerful 47.7-kW electric motor (formerly 44.2 kW) and a 1.49-kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Tucson Hybrid delivers its abundant power through a specially tuned six-speed automatic transmission for smooth, quiet, and efficient performance.

Plug-in hybrid models feature a high-output 1.6-liter turbocharged, direct-injected four coupled with a specially tuned six-speed automatic and a more powerful 72.0-kW electric motor (increased from 66.9 kW). Plug-in hybrid total system output is rated at up to 268¹ horsepower and 258¹ lb.-ft. of torque. The Plug-In hybrid battery is larger than the hybrid pack, offering 13.8 kWh of lithium-ion power.

Shared hybrid and plug-in hybrid technologies

Hybrid and plug-in hybrid models include standard HTRAC® all-wheel drive (AWD) to meet the needs of eco-minded buyers seeking enhanced capability in inclement weather and limited-traction situations. Driver-selectable HTRAC® Normal, Sport, Snow, and a new-for-2025 My Drive mode deliver confident driver control in a wide range of conditions. Moreover, within the new My Drive sub-menu, a novel driver-selectable Baby Mode helps reduce the sharpness of initial acceleration, smoothing out driver inputs for a gentler acceleration feeling for passengers. This more serene experience helps reduce potential disturbances that may upset infants or pets.
