The 2025 Hyundai Tucson is set to arrive in Australian showrooms soon, featuring a hybrid drivetrain option and updated technology.

This release will see a discontinuation of the turbo-diesel engine and introduces price increases across various models.

Hyundai has replaced the previously available turbo-diesel engine with a new 1.6-litre turbocharged hybrid drivetrain, also available in non-hybrid forms, alongside the existing 2.0-litre petrol engine.

The hybrid system is shared with the Kia Sportage and will be offered in both front- and all-wheel drive configurations.

Updates to the Tucson include a redesigned front bumper, grille, and standard LED headlights across all models.

The interior upgrades feature dual 12.3-inch screens, an updated steering wheel, and a revised climate control panel.

The entry-level Hyundai Tucson now starts at $39,100, marking a $3,450 increase from the previous model.

The new hybrid models start at $45,100, and the price for turbocharged non-hybrid variants has increased by $3,950.

In terms of drivetrains, the Tucson offers three engine options and five drivetrain combinations.

The hybrid model combines a 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine with an electric motor, producing a total output of 169kW and 350Nm.

The vehicle also features updated infotainment systems that support over-the-air software updates and include both wireless and wired connectivity for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

As Hyundai prepares to launch the 2025 Tucson, the model adjustments reflect a shift towards more environmentally friendly options at a higher cost.

Matt Brand
I’m Matt, the Founder and CEO of CarSauce. I kicked things off back in 2020 with "Matt Brand Cars," back when it was just me and a camera trying to change how car reviews were done. Before I traded the corporate suit for steering wheels, I worked in management consulting at KPMG and in the aviation industry after finishing my Commerce degree at Melbourne Uni.‍ That business background helped me turn a passion project into what CarSauce is today, but my real goal is to make sure our reviews stay entertaining and honest. When I’m not deep in car specs, I’m usually on camera trying to keep Jacob in line - though, as you’ve probably seen, that’s easier said than done!
