Performance
The Hyundai Tucson features two engine types that drivers can choose, running on an all-wheel or front-wheel drivetrain. Lower trim levels use the 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine coupled to a six-speed auto transmission to create 161 horsepower and a torque value of 150 pound-feet. Conversely, drivers can choose higher trim levels that have a robust 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. This powertrain offers Houston drivers a substantial 181 horsepower and 175 pound-feet of torque.
Fuel Economy
The combined fuel economy of the 2.0-liter engine running on a front-wheel-drive (FWD) measures 25.5 mpg and 23.5 mpg for the all-wheel-drive (AWD) setup, as estimated by the EPA.
