Love driving my Tucson Hybrid. It is fast, smooth, with great tech.
I am very happy with my purchase and look forward to driving my Tucson every day. I did a lot of research before buying and knew the hybrid version was highly rated, but still amazed at its combination of power, comfort, fuel economy, and technology. Averaging 39mpg over the first 2,500 miles, and probably would be more if I didn’t floor it so often to demonstrate how fast it is to my friends! The transitions from hybrid to electric mode are very smooth, and it runs in electric mode a lot more than I expected (even on the interstate at 70 mph). I don’t mind sitting in long “drive through” lines anymore, because I am not using any gas. I love that the “shift paddles” provide three levels of regenerative braking (plus coasting and an automatic setting, but you also get the benefits of regenerative braking if you just drive it like a regular car and use the brake pedal. I would suggest only a few minor changes: When exiting the car, I would like to be able to lock the car with the door switch, then just close the door. I would like the hybrid version of the Tucson to be offered in front wheel drive, not just four wheel drive. This option would have better fuel economy, and I expect many buyers have no need for four wheel drive, Kia does offer a front wheel drive Sportage Hybrid, but unfortunately it is a stripped down model that many buyers wouldn’t want. I also wish I could have gotten my Tucson with faux leather seats and rear LED lights without having to buy a sunroof. It would also be nice if the Tucson had a little tighter turning radius. Other than that, the car is perfect.
