The Hyundai Tucson is one of the most popular compact crossover SUVs on the road, and the 2026 model year continues that reputation with a strong mix of technology, comfort, and value. Here's the full lineup of available 2026 Hyundai Tucson trims:

• SE FWD, SE AWD
• SEL FWD, SEL AWD
• XRT FWD, XRT AWD
• SEL Premium FWD or AWD
• Limited FWD or AWD

The 2026 Tucson lineup starts at $29,450 MSRP for the SE with front-wheel drive. Tucson Limited FWD models start at $39,425. 

Hybrids start at $32.340 MSRP while plug-in hybrids start at $40,325 MSRP. Tucson HEV trims include Hybrid Blue SE AWD, SEL AWD, SEL Convenience AWD and Limited AWD. If you want the Tucson Plug-in Hybrid, it’s available as the PHEV SEL AWD or PHEV Limited AWD

The base SE trim is far from basic. Standard features on the 2026 Tucson SE include a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment display with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. The Hyundai SmartSense safety suite includes Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, Lane Following Assist, and Driver Attention Warning.

A 2.5L 4-cylinder engine is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, producing 187 horsepower. If you choose the Hybrid Blue SE AWD, features will be similar, but you’ll get the benefits of a hybrid system with money-saving fuel economy.

Step up to the SEL and you get a noticeable bump in convenience and technology. Key additions over the SE include 18-inch alloy wheels, aero wipers, hands-free power liftgate, and flush-style roof side rails. Interior comforts include a power driver’s seat, heated front seats, rear air conditioning vents, and dual-zone automatic temperature controls. 

SEL trims deliver a strong value for budget-conscious buyers in Avondale and the West Valley who want a dependable, feature-rich compact SUV without a premium price tag.

Packed with important adventure equipment such as terrain mode, underbody protection, and a tow hitch, the XRT trim is designed for drivers who want their Tucson to look the part for weekend adventures. Black and dark chrome elements add a rugged look to the exterior. Inside Black H-Tex upholstery is spiced up with XRT embossing on the upper front seatbacks. The pillar trim panels and headliner are also in black. Ambient lighting adds a touch of fun to the night.

The XRT is a solid pick if you're drawn to a bolder look for your drives through the Arizona landscape but don't need a full off-road build.

The SEL Premium adds tons of technology and favorite conveniences to the package. Cockpits gain a 12.3-in digital instrument cluster and a navigation touchscreen display with Dynamic Voice Recognition. H-Tex upholstery, a power sunroof, ambient lighting, and a wireless charger are on board. 

Hyundai adds Highway Driving Assist, navigation-based Smart Cruise Control, and the Digital Key 2 Premium.

The Limited trim is where the Tucson delivers a near-luxury experience at a compact SUV price. Premium features include:

Style: Leather Upholstery, Panoramic Sunroof

Front Row: Dual Power-adj, Power-Ventilated Seats

Second-Row: Heated seats

Driver: Heated steering wheel, Integrated Memory System

Best of all, drivers enjoy the assistance of a surround view monitor, a blind spot monitor, a head-up display, and rain-sensing wipers. Parking is simplified by Remote Smart Parking Assist, parking collision assist-reverse, and parking distance warnings for front, sides and rear.
