2026 Hyundai Tucson Price, Specs and Range

What is it?

The Tucson is Australia's third best-selling medium SUV. The 2025 facelift swapped the awkward integrated dash for a clean dual 12.3-inch panoramic curved display, added a 1.6L turbo hybrid, and updated the cabin tech.

The lineup runs from Tucson 2.0 FWD at $38,500 plus on-roads, through to Premium N Line HEV at $58,500 plus on-roads. Warranty cover sits at 5 years, unlimited km.

Interior and Technology

The 2025 facelift finally retired the haptic-button dash for a clean dual 12.3-inch curved display lifted from the Santa Fe. 582 L boot is segment-leading, and the hybrid hits a 5.3 L/100 km claim.

Hybrid is only available on N Line and Premium grades, not on the entry Tucson. The Premium N Line Hybrid also pushes close to $60k plus on-roads, into Santa Fe Hybrid territory.

You want a cheaper hybrid entry point (Kia Sportage GT-Line HEV is only AWD HEV), or you want AWD standard across the range (Mazda CX-5).
The 2.0L NA entry is starting to feel breathless against turbocharged rivals at the price. Step up to the 1.6T or HEV unless budget forces the base car.
Top trim climbs to $58,500 plus on-roads.

The CarTell take

We have not driven this yet. On paper, here is how it stacks up.

Strongest suit on paper: The 2025 facelift finally retired the haptic-button dash for a clean dual 12.3-inch curved display lifted from the Santa Fe. 582 L boot is segment-leading, and the hybrid hits a 5.3 L/100 km claim.
The trade-off: Hybrid is only available on N Line and Premium grades, not on the entry Tucson. The Premium N Line Hybrid also pushes close to $60k plus on-roads, into Santa Fe Hybrid territory.
Check before you buy: The 2.0L NA entry is starting to feel breathless against turbocharged rivals at the price. Step up to the 1.6T or HEV unless budget forces the base car.
Best suited to: Mainstream medium SUV buyers who want a hybrid drivetrain, the new dual 12.3-inch curved display, and a 7-year warranty. N Line FWD turbo is the value sweet spot if hybrid is not the priority.
