The Hyundai Tucson, a compact SUV, last received a major facelift in 2019. It enters 2020, its fifth year on the market, without noteworthy changes.
Hyundai offers the Tucson in SE, Value, SEL, Sport, Limited, and Ultimate trims. The Value and SE trims feature a 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder engine good for 161 horsepower and 150 pound-feet of torque. Meanwhile, the other trims get a beefier 2.4-liter inline 4-cylinder engine that makes 181 hp and 175 lb-ft of torque. Both engines pair with a 6-speed automatic and come with standard front-wheel drive (FWD) or optional all-wheel drive (AWD). Fuel-economy ratings are as high as 23 mpg city, 28 highway, and 25 combined for the smaller engine or 22/28/25 for the larger one.
The base Tucson SE comes with 17-inch alloy wheels, projector-beam headlights, an electronic parking brake, a 7-inch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a 60/40 split-folding rear seat. An 8-inch infotainment system with navigation, a panoramic sunroof, heated and cooled front seats, automatic dual-zone climate control, wireless device charging, a hands-free power liftgate, keyless access and start, LED exterior lights, an 8-way power driver’s seat, and leather upholstery are available as options.
Like most Hyundai products, the Tucson includes a good level of safety equipment. Forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and a reversing camera all come standard. You can then add blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic detection, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability, and pedestrian detection. The Tucson received top scores from both the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
The compact-crossover field is as hot as ever, but the Hyundai Tucson provides a healthy dose of competition, offering plenty of value.
What owners say
"Owners of the 2020 Hyundai Tucson generally have positive feelings about their experience. They appreciate its spacious interior, smooth ride, and extensive tech features. Many reviewers also highlight the excellent safety options and value for money. However, some drivers feel that it lacks power, especially on highways, and there are minor complaints about certain features, such as the heavy hatchback trunk."
This car is great! Roomy, comfortable, safe, great tech options. Highly recommended.
July 2, 2023The 2020 Hyundai Tucson certainly gives you plenty of bang for the buck as compared to other SUVs!! It has plenty of features from a blind spot warning system on the side view mirrors to auto braking and drift controls. The ride is also quiet and smooth. Its an excellent choice!!
August 19, 2020Really happy with purchase of the Hyundai 2020 Tucson SEL. The car was in really good condition, and had all the features we were looking for.

August 1, 2023Just bought the vehicle one week ago so a bit early to give an in depth review but so far I LOVE IT! Very smooth ride, I have the 2.4 engine so great pickup. Its a perfect size, roomy enough but not too big so it looks sporty. One downside is the hatchback trunk is a bit heavy to pull down to close (wish it closed automatically like it opens), but I work out so I have some upper body strength. I bought the Ultimate w leather interior too. Silver w/ black interior, very sharp.
November 23, 2020This is our second Hyundai Tucson and we really like these cars. They drive very well, are very reliable, and have all the features we like - all wheel drive, collision avoidance, adequate room for pets, excellent warranty, comfortable interior and they are priced very competitively as well. We look forward to keeping this Tucson for many years.
September 9, 2020Excellent ride, plenty of room, lots of electronics, and 30 MPG INTOWN! Shop/drive them before you buy or lease!
February 16, 2020Great features, roomy, and reasonably priced. I like the rear backup camera.
February 2, 2022Purchased 3 2020 Tucsons, AWD preferred models, excellent value and warranty. For a small SUV they ride smooth and feel heavy then some competitors. We have purchased 4 Hyundais to date, gas, oil,tires, and brakes nothing but great value.
November 2, 2021Plenty of good tech, good amount of space, rides smooth and quietly. Only down side is it has no get up and go. Speaker system in the SEL is not to bad either. Fits two forward facing car seats pretty well. Gas milage has been right around 22-23 MPG.
July 26, 2021Rides ok. Plenty of leg room. Road noise is noticeable. Push button start does not come with remote start. Unbelievable in a car at the max trim level and for the price. Will trade it back in when prices come down. Good everyday driver. Lacks power on highways.
