Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2025 Tucson.
The 2025 Hyundai Tucson is a compact SUV equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission and achieves EPA-estimated fuel economy of 24 mpg city, 30 mpg highway, and 26 mpg combined, positioning it as a practical option in its segment for daily driving duties; it carries a total of 260 owner complaints across its model history spanning 2005 to 2026, with forward collision avoidance representing the most frequently reported issue among six total recalls issued for this model year, which marks a substantial decline from the model's peak complaint volume of 1,612 in 2016—though still elevated compared to its lowest complaint year of 2009 with just 18 reported issues—indicating that while reliability has improved considerably from its troubled past, prospective buyers should remain aware of ongoing hardware and software concerns that have persisted into recent model years.

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.
The 2025 Hyundai Tucson’s federal record shows 261 complaints, 6 recalls, 0 investigations, and 40 TSBs—a noticeable jump from the 85 complaints/4 recalls in 2024 and the 123 complaints/2 recalls in 2023, and also much higher than 2026’s 45 complaints/5 recalls. Across the broader record, complaints peaked dramatically in 2016–2017, trended downward through 2021, rose again in 2022, then moderated in 2023–2024 before spiking in 2025 and falling back in 2026. That places 2025 at a local high point for the current generation, carrying the most complaints and recalls of any 2022–2026 model year. The leading complaint categories are Forward Collision Avoidance with 76 reports, Unknown or Other with 36, Electrical System with 22, and Service Brakes/Forward Collision Avoidance with 22; there are also 30 crash-related and 1 fire-related complaint, though the data does not specify root causes. Because 2025 stands out as a higher-complaint, higher-recall year within an otherwise improving recent run, it is not the strongest Tucson year to buy used; if you do buy, choose a unit with all recalls completed and verified forward collision-avoidance/brake function, or consider the cleaner 2024 or 2026 records.
