New 2026 Hyundai Tucson Interior, Redesign, Pictures – The New 2026 Hyundai Tucson competes in the crowded compact crossover market.

Exterior and Interior
The seats are firm and supportive, and rear-seat passengers are spoiled with reclining backrests that can be set to three different positions. They also get more legroom than they’ll know what to do with, and there’s plenty of headroom all around. Even the entry-level Preferred trim comes with LED headlights, heated mirrors, a 10.25-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connections, embedded navigation and more. Creature comforts like a panoramic sunroof, power tailgate, upgraded upholstery, and a power-adjustable driver’s seat are part of a package on the base trim, and are standard across the rest of the lineup. The top Ultimate trim gets leather upholstery.

Engine and Performance
The Tucson is also offered with a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrain, or a conventional hybrid like this tester’s. Both use a 1.6L turbocharged engine, plus an electric motor. This means the hybrid makes 226 hp, while the PHEV makes 261 hp. Both produce 258 lb-ft of torque, which kicks in at a mere 1,500 rpm, and makes for a much more rewarding and exciting driving experience. Both come with a six-speed automatic transmission.

New 2026 Hyundai Tucson Fuel Economy
Fuel economy is one of the Tucson’s stronger points. According to Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), the gas-only version is rated for 9.3 L/100 km combined, while the hybrid sees that number to drop to 6.4. The PHEV is good for 6.7 L/100 km, according to NRCan, but then it boasts a bonus of 53 km of emissions-free range. A week-long test of the hybrid turned in a combined consumption rate of 7.6 L/100 km. New 2026 Hyundai Tucson Interior
New 2026 Hyundai Tucson Safety Features
Some of the most advanced safety features are included across the Tucson lineup. Even the cheapest (non-hybrid) trim, the Preferred, comes with forward collision warning and avoidance, lane keep assist, automatic high-beam control, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, rear occupant alert, and more.
All switches and buttons are logically organized and easy to use. The push-button gear selector takes a bit of getting used to, but the lack of a traditional selector means there’s less clutter on the centre console. Hyundai has opted to replace all the physical knobs and buttons you would normally use to adjust the climate control system with a touch panel. While it makes for a very clean and modern look, it can’t be used with gloves on. New 2026 Hyundai Tucson Interior
