Do you need a compact SUV that still has lots of passenger and cargo space for your family? If you’re shopping on a modest budget, you won’t find a better option than the Hyundai Tucson. With five seats, two four-cylinder engines to choose from, and ample storage capacity at the rear, the Tucson offers everything you would expect from a family-friendly vehicle. Here’s a look at its six trims and their prices.
How Much Does a Hyundai Tucson Cost?
The 2021 Tucson‘s starting retail price of $23,700 gives it the edge over many of its compact SUV rivals for budget-conscious buyers. In its base SE trim, the Tucson is powered by a 2.0-liter V-4 capable of putting out 161 horsepower. Front-wheel drive comes standard, with all-wheel drive offered as an optional upgrade.
In the cabin, the SE trim has cloth upholstery, a 7-inch infotainment screen, and a USB port. The infotainment system features Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with BlueTooth connectivity. A wide selection of driver assistance features is also available, like forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking. Behind the second row of seats, you’ll find just over 31 cubic feet of storage space, which you can increase to over 64 cubic feet with the rear seats folded down.
The front seats provide plenty of legroom and headroom. In the second row, there’s space for two adult passengers or three kids to ride comfortably. If you need to install child car seats, you’ll find two complete sets of LATCH connectors on the outermost seats, and a tether anchor in the middle seat.
How Much Do the Tucson’s Trims Cost?
If you decide to step up to the Value trim, its starting price is $25,150. Up front, the Value trim gets heated front seats and a power adjustable driver’s seat. There’s also heated side mirrors, which will help you retain good visibility during bad weather.
You can also benefit from additional infotainment technology, including satellite radio and HD radio. The proximity keyless entry will make things a lot easier for you if you’re trying to get into your SUV with your hands full. When you’re behind the wheel, you can take advantage of blind spot monitoring and rear cross traffic alert.
To get a little more power under the hood, you may want to upgrade to the SEL trim, which comes standard with a 2.4-liter V-4 engine. The base price for a Tucson SEL is $26,100.
Other benefits with the Tucson SEL include 18-inch wheels and a second-row USB port. The dual zone automatic climate control will also help you keep all of your passengers comfortable wherever they’re seated.
The starting price for the Tucson Sport is $28,250. For the extra cash, you get an eight-speaker stereo, a hands-free power liftgate, and wireless device charging. Your Tucson will roll on 19-inch wheels and light up the road ahead with LED headlights.
For a touch more luxury in the cabin, consider the Tucson Limited. With a starting retail price of $29,400, it comes with leather upholstery, a heated steering wheel, and a power adjustable passenger’s seat.
The Limited is equipped with a surround-view parking camera, which will make it much easier for you to maneuver in and out of tight parking spaces around town. On top of that, you get a chrome grill for the front of your Hyundai.
If you want to ride in the range-topping Ultimate trim, it will cost you a starting price of $32,050. But the higher price gets you heated rear seats, ventilated front seats, and a panoramic sunroof. The addition of automatic high-beam headlights and a navigation system will also make things a bit easier for you when you’re behind the wheel. The Ultimate is equipped with a larger, 8-inch infotainment screen.
How Much Does it Cost to Add All-Wheel Drive?
All of the trims we’ve discussed come with front-wheel drive as standard. If you want to upgrade to all-wheel drive, it costs an additional $1,400 on top of each trim’s starting price. For example, if you choose the base SE in four-wheel drive, you’ll pay the retail price of $23,700 plus an additional $1,400 for all-wheel drive, giving you a total cost of $25,100.
With all-wheel drive and the larger 2.4-liter engine, you get a towing capacity of 2,000 pounds. The base engine’s towing limit is 1,500 pounds. In terms of gas mileage, the smaller engine does a little better at 23 mpg on city streets and 28 mpg on the highway, compared to 22 mpg and 28 mpg respectively with the 2.4-liter engine.
