Notes and sources
- Fuel economy: EPA combined test-cycle figure for the configuration Tucson Hybrid Blue (38 city, 38 highway). EPA data dated 2026-06-15, the date EPA wrote the workbook in 26data.zip.↩
- CO₂: EPA's tailpipe rating for the car driven as rated on the test cycle — 234 g/mi, or 145 g/km.↩
- Fuel cost: EPA's own annual estimate for this car is $1,300, on EPA's assumptions. At this week's price it is $1,568: 13,800 mi a year at the EPA combined figure, priced at $4.319 per gallon — the U.S. Energy Information Administration's weekly U.S. average for regular gasoline, all formulations, on 2026-09-14. Five years at that price: $7,842. Both are estimates; neither is a measured figure.↩
- Power: not published. No matching EPA record.↩
- Crash rating: NHTSA's overall rating for the 2026 Tucson — frontal 4, side 5, rollover 4 stars. NHTSA data as of 2026-09-10.↩
- Recall campaigns: NHTSA's count for this variant (TUCSON HYBRID HEV), as of 2026-09-10. Each is repaired free of charge by dealers.↩
- Complaints: NHTSA holds 41 for the 2026 Tucson, 6 of which describe a crash, fire, injury or death. The rate per 10,000 built is not computed: not published in this market-year — complaint_rate: no row in this market-year carries it from a source that measures it (0/392).↩
- Kerb weight: not published. No source states a curb weight for this car.↩
- EPA test weight: not published. No matching EPA record.↩
- Warranty: not carried. The warranty table compiled from each maker's published statement has no verified entry for Hyundai for 2026 in this market.↩
- Registrations: 2,319 Tucsons of this model year on New York's roads, from the NY DMV registration file as of 2026-09-02.↩
- This car is measured on the petrol scale: miles per gallon, the tailpipe CO₂ rating and horsepower. MPGe and charge-weighted CO₂ are electric-scale quantities and do not apply to it.↩
- Price: no free, resellable source publishes a price for any 2026 car sold in the United States, so none is shown for any car in this market.↩
