Hyundai is moving its crossover game to sporting heights with its 2022 Tucson SUV. The newest Tucson features a bold, striking design and is available in a plethora of powertrain options. The latest additions in the 2022 Hyundai Tucson’s growing lineup are the much-awaited N Line model and a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) variant.
Let’s start with the Tucson N Line, the first-ever high-performance Tucson to enter production. Hyundai has yet to mention the exact specs, but the rumor mill suggests a 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, the same power unit under the Sonata N Line’s hood. Producing 290 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque, we’re expecting the 2022 Tucson N Line to be a scorcher.

A technical feature designed specifically for the plug-in hybrid model is an active air intake that can close up to improve fuel efficiency when the engine needs less cooling. It also gets four-wheel-drive as standard and a Terrain Mode selector that can optimise the system for different surfaces.
