0.22 -> The 2023 Hyundai Tucson Plug-in Hybrid is
the most powerful member of the Tucson family.
7.069 -> It's not the most efficient PHEV on the road,
and it doesn't have the longest electric range,
10.51 -> but its design and feature set are strong
for the price.
15.91 -> The 2023 Tucson Plug-in Hybrid is a powerful,
efficient, and practical crossover, but it
18.72 -> comes with a few compromises.
19.72 -> The 261-hp Plug-in's extra power—74 horsepower
more than the gas Tucson—suits its personality
22.31 -> well.
23.31 -> It behaves well in the curves, and the electric
torque provides plenty of oomph off the line.
27.56 -> It isn't quite as quick as the Toyota RAV4
Prime, but most buyers won't mind.
28.728 -> For most plug-in shoppers, efficiency and
electric range is more important than speed.
30.204 -> While the Tucson Plug-in is admirably thrifty
compared to gas-powered models, it trails
31.599 -> the PHEV competition.
32.599 -> The RAV4 Prime and the Ford Escape Plug-in
Hybrid offer more electric range and better
35.57 -> fuel economy when the gas engine is running.
38.16 -> The Tucson Plug-in's other compromise is space.
40.31 -> Compared to the gas and hybrid Tucson, the
plug-in version has slightly less rear legroom
44.62 -> and cargo capacity.
45.62 -> Fortunately, it shares their eye-catching
design, tech-centric interior, and generous
47.72 -> feature set.
48.72 -> Those virtues are enough to make the Tucson
Plug-in an attractive option for anybody wanting
50.16 -> to dabble in electric motoring.
52.43 -> The Tucson Plug-in Hybrid takes the same basic
ingredients as the Hybrid and adds a larger,
56.27 -> 13.8-kWh battery and more powerful motor.

an electric motor, and a six-speed automatic
64.46 -> transmission combine for 261 hp and 258 lb-ft
of torque.
69.89 -> All models are all-wheel drive.
72.31 -> The EPA rates the Plug-in for 33 miles of
electric range and 80 mpg-e with a charged
77.14 -> battery or 35 mpg combined when the battery

80.95 -> Those numbers are excellent by mainstream
standards, but they're subpar for the class.
84.32 -> The Toyota RAV4 Prime offers 42 miles of range,
94 mpg-e, and 38 mpg combined.
85.32 -> The Ford Escape Plug-in Hybrid is good for
37 miles of range, 105 mpg-e, and 40 mpg combined.
87.079 -> Like most PHEV vehicles, the Tucson Plug-in
Hybrid is at its best when driven with a charged
90.07 -> battery.
91.07 -> Taking advantage of its 33-mile range maximizes
efficiency and value.
97.93 -> For buyers with access to at-home charging,
however, the Tucson Plug-in has in-house competition.

is only a few thousand less than the new Ioniq
103.259 -> 5, which is still eligible for federal tax
credits.
106.74 -> The Plug-in Hybrid takes a fraction of the
time to charge, and its gas tank means it's
108.6 -> still more practical as a road tripper.
110.69 -> The Ioniq 5 is much more efficient and arguably
even better looking.
113.299 -> For buyers with access to a charging station
at home, the switch to pure electric power
116.85 -> is increasingly tempting.
117.85 -> While the Plug-in Hybrid hasn't been specifically
tested, the gas-powered Tucson earned strong

149.21 -> For 2023, wireless charging and the ability
to use your phone as a key are standard on
152.95 -> all models.
