Plug-In Hybrid Power and Performance

Under the hood of every 2026 Hyundai Tucson Plug-In Hybrid is a 1.6-liter GDI 4-cylinder engine paired with a 72-kW electric motor and a six-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC. The powertrain delivers 268 combined horsepower and 271 lb-ft of torque to all four wheels via standard HTRAC AWD, offering strong low-end response and smooth transitions between gas and electric operation.

The 13.8-kWh lithium-ion polymer battery provides an EPA-estimated 32 miles of all-electric range on a full charge, depending on driving conditions. When the battery is depleted, the hybrid system kicks in automatically to maintain high efficiency.

  • Drive Mode Select (ECO, Sport, My Drive, and Snow)
  • Electric parking brake with auto hold
  • Regenerative braking with variable levels

  • Better digital display integration
  • Longer warranty coverage
