Hyundai Motor has revealed new details of the all new Tucson Plug-in Hybrid, which will be available starting Spring 2021. With the addition of a plug-in hybrid powertrain, Hyundai's best-selling SUV now offers the widest range of electrified powertrains in its class.
The Tucson Plug-in Hybrid has a turbocharged 1.6-litre inline-four engine and a 90bhp electric motor paired with a 13.8kWh lithium polymer battery. Combined, the powertrain delivers 261bhp and 350Nm of torque, through a six-speed automatic transmission, transmitting power to a four-wheel drive system.


When driving at low speeds, the Tucson Plug-in Hybrid can be driven by the electric motor alone. Drivers can also switch to fully electric driving on demand, with an electric driving range of over 50km. Equipped with a 7.2kW on-board charger, the Tucson Plug-in Hybrid can be charged at an EV charging station or using a home wall box.
Thanks to the placement of the high voltage battery on the underbody, the Tucson Plug-in Hybrid offers generous space and legroom inside, with 955mm of rear legroom, and boot space of 558 litres, expandable up to 1,737 litres with the seats folded.
Additionally, a host of features enable an intuitive user experience, including a 10.25-inch digital gauge cluster and a 10.25-inch infotainment display with Hyundai Bluelink connected car services. Bluelink users can also check the Tucson Plug-in Hybrid's battery charge level and manage charging settings via the app.
