- Winter drivers: HTRAC all-wheel drive is available for snowy commutes and mountain roads.
- Road trippers: Up to 520 miles of range means fewer fuel stops on road trips.

Hybrid Powertrain and All-Wheel Drive
The Tucson Hybrid pairs a gas engine with an electric motor for 231 combined horsepower. The electric motor adds pull from a stop, so the SUV feels responsive around town. You never plug it in. The hybrid system charges itself as you drive and brake.
HTRAC all-wheel drive is available on every trim. The SE and SEL also come with front-wheel drive for drivers who want the highest city fuel economy. For Colorado winters, all-wheel drive adds traction on snowy mornings and icy mountain roads.
Tucson Hybrid MPG, Range and Fuel Savings
Here is how the EPA estimates compare:
- SE and SEL FWD: 40 city, 35 highway, 38 combined.
- SE AWD: 38 city, 38 highway, 38 combined.
- SEL and Limited AWD: 36 city, 37 highway, 36 combined.
That means fewer trips to the pump than a typical compact SUV. The savings add up fastest for drivers who spend a lot of time in city traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. With up to 520 miles of range, many drivers fill up far less often.
Your actual mpg will vary with driving style, weather and elevation.
