Vehicle in the dealers ready for collection next Thursday.
I have been doing some research on the power output and it seems Hyundai are following Toyota’s & others lead in only quoting the torque of the electric motor as the output only, which is 304Nm. This changed from the MY23.
For 2025 the electric motor has seen an increase from 66.9kW to 72kW, which equates to around 8hp increase.
As for the engine it is interesting where you look, whether that is Hyundai worldwide or UK/Europe. It use to be Hyundai mentioned the engine specs 180PS 242Nm, which would be combined with the electric motor when both were in use together. However Hyundai no longer mentions an 180PS engine as I can see on the MHEV 4wd, rather it having a 160PS 264Nm engine. As I said it’s unfortunate aren’t breaking the PHEV engine specs down anymore in europe.
Hyundai worldwide on the other hand are quoting things differently, stating there has been an overall 8hp increase (which tally’s with the 8hp electric motor increase) in the 2025 Tucson to 268hp 350Nm torque!!
Either way theres either an overall increase as stated by Hundai worldwide or a minimal difference between the outgoing model and new when both powertrains are working together.
