The 2023 Hyundai Tucson SEL welcomes occupants with a premium sensory experience, blending Phantom Black exterior appeal with an interior designed for comfort and sophistication. Heated front bucket seats, dual-zone climate control, and a panoramic moonroof provide an immediate sense of modern luxury, while advanced technology and a serene cabin atmosphere elevate every journey.
Drivers seeking executive presence and modern refinement will appreciate the Tucson's upscale appointments and attention to detail. This SUV is ideal for those who prioritize a quiet, composed ride, tactile quality, and advanced convenience.

A host of luxury features includes leather-appointed seats, a power driver seat, and a hands-free power liftgate. The Convenience Package adds practical sophistication, while Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and SiriusXM integration bring seamless entertainment and connectivity. Ambient lighting, heated mirrors, and a comprehensive Blue Link Connected Car Service subscription further elevate comfort and daily usability.

Its emphasis on interior refinement and acoustic comfort ensures ownership satisfaction, especially for those who value elevated daily driving experiences.
Premium materials such as stain and odor-resistant cloth seat trim and leather accents contribute to a sophisticated cabin.

2 powertrains for the price of one

The 2023 Tucson PHEV has all the advantages of a hybrid and some advantages of an all-electric SUV. I purchased this vehicle in October 2025 at 35,800 miles and has 44,200 miles as of 4/1/2026. In my experience: -the Tucson can go 39 miles on battery alone, in combination city/highway driving, when weather is warm or mild. In cold weather, the gas engine turns on periodically for heat. -at public Level 2 charging stations (with a J1772 outlet), the Tucson gets to full battery charge in 2 to 4 hours. The dash display will estimate the charging time. -Mpg in hybrid mode is as advertised in warm and mild weather. -Mpg in hybrid mode is a bit less than advertised - so low 30s - in cold weather. -Reliability has been good - oil changes, a tire rotation and alignment service are the only maintenance needed so far. -compared to other hybrid SUVs, a unique feature of the Tucson PHEV is the traditional automatic transmission. Unlike a CVT, the driver can feel the gear shifts with the 6-speed automatic - the feel is the same in hybrid and EV modes. - 5.0
A compact SUV Actually Made For You

After looking at countless compact SUVs, the 2026 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid was the one that truly stood out. It has noticeably better storage space than most vehicles in its class, and the interior feels surprisingly luxurious for the price with a clean, comfortable cabin design. I’m also 6'4" and fit extremely comfortably, which I couldn’t say about the Toyota RAV4 or Honda CR‑V when I tested them. It’s also just a great car to drive, smooth, quiet, and well-rounded for everyday life, and there are some great deals out there right now; I was able to get 0% financing for 60 months with a 90-day deferred payment, which made the decision even easier. - 5.0
