Powertrain Details
A 1.6L turbocharged four-cylinder engine teams up with an electric motor for 231 horsepower and 271 lb-ft of torque across all trims. This setup pairs with a six-speed automatic transmission and standard HTRAC All-Wheel Drive, delivering smooth acceleration that reviewers call quick for the class—around 7 seconds to 60 mph. Real-world tests show it outperforms non-hybrid versions in power and quiet highway cruising.
Fuel Efficiency Breakdown
The Blue SE trim leads with 38 city/38 highway/38 combined MPG, while others hit 36 city/37 highway/36 combined. Note that plug-in hybrid variants reach over 77 MPGe with 32 miles of electric range, which might explain claims of “over 50 MPG” in mixed driving. Expect up to 493 miles of range per tank on most trims.
Tech and Infotainment
Every model features a standard 12.3-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, over-the-air updates, and four USB ports. Higher trims add a matching 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, Bose audio, wireless charging, and Bluelink+ connectivity for remote features. The interface feels intuitive with physical knobs for quick climate and volume adjustments.
Safety Suite
Hyundai SmartSense comes standard, including forward collision avoidance, blind-spot collision warning, lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, and rear cross-traffic alert. Available upgrades on Limited trims bring 360-degree cameras, Blind-Spot View Monitor, Remote Smart Parking Assist, and Highway Driving Assist for semi-autonomous highway runs. It has earned multiple IIHS Top Safety awards.
Interior Comfort
The cabin offers spacious seating for five, with 38.7 cubic feet of cargo behind the second row expanding to over 70 with seats folded. Expect dual-zone climate control, heated front seats (heated rear on some), panoramic sunroof options, power liftgate, and premium materials like H-Tex leatherette or leather. Reviewers praise the comfortable ride and upscale feel without the luxury price tag.
