On the road, the Tucson Hybrid SEL combines the smooth response of its 1.6L turbocharged hybrid engine with the intuitive shifting of a 6-speed automatic transmission. The hybrid system allows for quiet, refined acceleration from a stop, and transitions seamlessly between electric and gas power for a composed driving experience. All-wheel drive ensures stable handling in changing conditions, while four-wheel independent suspension and front/rear anti-roll bars contribute to a comfortable, controlled ride. This makes the SUV well-suited for varied driving, from city commutes to longer highway trips.
Safety in the Tucson Hybrid SEL is supported by a comprehensive suite of active and passive features.

The power liftgate also reduces risks during cargo loading, and remote keyless entry adds both convenience and security.
