With stylish, accommodating, and versatile options in the industry's most popular segments, the Hyundai SUV lineup offers something for everyone. But which is right for you? To help you find the ideal fit, here's a quick look at some highlights of each model.
The Venue is Hyundai's smallest SUV - a stylish, agile subcompact crossover with balanced handling, comfortable accommodations, and a flexible cargo area. It's an excellent choice for Newton shoppers seeking extra practicality and minimal space requirements for an accessible value proposition.
Are you shopping for something larger than the Venue while retaining a city-friendly physical footprint? The Hyundai Kona is on the larger side of the subcompact crossover class, providing roomier passenger and cargo accommodations and peppier performance. The Kona received a full second-generation redesign in 2024 with a futuristic new look and more standard features, including a 12.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, and Hyundai SmartSense driver aids.
SE and SEL models are powered by a 2.0-liter turbo-four with 147 horsepower, 132 pound-feet of torque, and an Intelligent Variable Transmission. N Line and Limited trims get a 1.6-liter turbo-four with 190 horsepower, 195 pound-feet of torque, and an 8-speed automatic.
The Kona's battery-powered variant aims to expand EV accessibility and practicality to a wider audience. SEL and Limited models drive the front wheels with 201 horsepower, while a 64.8-kWh battery provides an EPA-estimated 261 miles of range.1 For the 2024 model year, the Kona Electric introduced a new value-oriented 48.6-kWh version (SE) with 133 horsepower and an estimated 200 miles of range.1
The Hyundai Tucson is an exemplary compact crossover with roomy, refined accommodations, comfortable seats, and ample passenger room in both rows. It offers abundant cargo capacity and desirable standard amenities like Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, adaptive cruise control, and blind-spot intervention. It can also be outfitted to luxurious levels with amenities like leather upholstery, heated/ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, driver-position memory, and a panoramic sunroof. Power comes from a 2.5-liter turns the wheels with 187 horsepower, 178 pound-feet of torque, and an 8-speed automatic transmission.
If you like the Hyundai Tucson and efficiency is high on your priorities, consider its two battery-assisted variants. The Tucson Hybrid has a 1.6-liter turbo-four and an electric motor, producing an all-wheel-driving 226 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The Hyundai Tucson Hybrid achieves an EPA-estimated 38 mpg combined in the Blue trim or 37 mpg in models with 19-inch wheels.1
The Tucson Plug-in Hybrid has the same gas engine but adds a more potent electric powertrain and a larger battery. The result is 261 horsepower and an EPA-estimated 80 MPGe (miles-per-gallon equivalent). With an estimated 33 miles of electric-only range, the Tucson PHEV is a great way to enjoy EV driving without range anxiety.1
While the Hyundai Santa Fe has long been a top contender among midsize two-row crossovers, it gets even better for its fifth generation. Introduced for 2024, the fifth-gen Santa Fe boasts a bold new look, a roomier, more refined cabin, and enhanced performance. It also adds a third row and accommodations for seven passengers, making it great for West Milford families who need additional seatbelts but want smaller space requirements.
The 2024 Santa Fe comes standard with a 277-horsepower 2.5-liter engine and a new dual-screen Panoramic Curved Display (12.3-inch digital gauge cluster/12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen). The XRT trim delivers real off-road capability with standard HTRAC® AWD, increased ground clearance, all-terrain tires, and more. Other feature highlights include Blind-Spot View Monitor, Remote Smart Parking Assist, and Hyundai Digital Key 2.
Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid: A battery-assisted 1.6-liter turbo-four variant will join the fifth-gen Santa Fe in the first half of 2024, producing 231 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque.
The Hyundai Palisade has been a hit since its launch for delivering a class-above experience without the high-class price tag. It boasts attractive and spacious accommodations, advanced safety technologies, and satisfying performance from its 3.8-liter V-6 engine. Other standard features include phone-as-a-key capability, a 12.3-inch touchscreen, Navigation-Based Smart Cruise Control, and Highway Driving Assist.
The Hyundai IONIQ 5 is a highly acclaimed electric crossover with eye-catching style, practical range, ultra-fast charging, and cutting-edge tech. It's exceptionally well-rounded, earning many prestigious accolades, like World Car of the Year (2022) and Car and Driver's EV of the Year (2022).
The IONIQ 5 is available in RWD or HTRAC AWD configurations with a 77-kWh battery. It produces 225 to 320 horsepower and an EPA-estimated 260 to 303 miles of range, depending on the configuration. There's also the value-oriented 58-kWh "SE Standard Range," trading a bit of range (EPA-est. 220 miles) for a lower price while remaining well-equipped.1
