The 2022 Hyundai Tucson is a compact crossover SUV redesigned and armed for battle against the best-sellers in the class. Its technological advancement, available electrified powertrains*, and generous ownership perks make the new 2022 Tucson a distinctive alternative to the status quo.
2022 Hyundai Tucson Configurations
The 2022 Tucson comes with your choice between gas, gas-electric hybrid, and gas-electric plug-in hybrid powertrains for the following trim levels:
- Gas models are available in SE, SEL, N Line, and Limited trim
- Hybrids are available in Blue, SEL Convenience, and Limited trim
- Plug-in hybrids come in SEL and Limited trim
Hyundai
Each of the trim levels offer different features:
- Tucson SE might be the base trim, but it’s anything but basic. Safety and infotainment tech combine with stain-resistant fabric upholstery to provide an appealing option
- Tucson Hybrid Blue emphasizes its reduced emissions and fuel efficiency; the base version of the Tucson Hybrid is called Blue instead of SE. It adds extra standard equipment, too
- Tucson SEL is the mid-grade trim, available with all three powertrains. A well-appointed Convenience Package is optional for gas models and comes standard with the hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions of the SUV
- Tucson N Line is for sporty styling. Just keep in mind that it’s more for show, without the extra go
- Tucson Limited is the most upscale and technologically advanced Tucson available with all three powertrains
