The next-generation Tucson Hybrid transitions to Hyundai Motor Group’s upgraded TMED-II (Transmission Mounted Electric Device II) hybrid system. Pairing an upgraded 1.6-liter turbocharged gasoline engine with an advanced electric motor and high-efficiency battery, the new setup delivers notable gains over both its predecessor and pure-combustion variants:

🔵 Total System Output: Delivers 245 horsepower and roughly 280 lb-ft (380 Nm) of torque.

🔵 Performance Gains: Generates 27% more power and 43% more torque compared to the standard gasoline powertrain, resulting in faster 0–100 km/h acceleration.

🔵 Efficiency Boost: Delivers up to 43% better fuel economy than the pure-ICE model, targeting around 40–41 mpg combined.

Hyundai Worldwide has officially confirmed the development of an all-new D-segment electric SUV (D-SUV EV) as a cornerstone of its mid-to-long-term product offensive. Announced during the 2026 CEO Investor Day in Seoul, this dedicated midsize electric utility vehicle forms a pivotal part of Hyundai’s broader commitment to execute over 100 vehicle launches and refreshes globally by 2030.

Slotted directly into the high-demand midsize family crossover category, the D-SUV EV is engineered to balance spacious interior dimensions, advanced software-defined vehicle (SDV) capabilities, and next-generation accessible battery chemistry.

Genesis is entering its second decade by redefining high-end electrification. Announced during Hyundai Motor Company’s 2026 CEO Investor Day, the Korean luxury brand will officially launch its first Extended-Range Electric Vehicle (EREV) SUV in early 2027 (Q1 2027). Designed to deliver the seamless refinement and instant torque of an electric vehicle without range or charging bottlenecks, the upcoming Genesis GV70 EREV SUV targets a class-leading total driving range of over 640 miles (approx. 1,030 km) on a single charge and full tank.

Hyundai Worldwide high-performance N division has outlined an ambitious roadmap to reach 100,000 annual sales by 2030. Moving beyond its initial wave of hot hatches and electric performance pioneers, Hyundai N will launch seven all-new models spanning four dedicated drive and platform configurations.

To reach enthusiast drivers globally, Hyundai N is expanding into key chassis layouts:

🔵 Entry Front-Engine, Front-Wheel Drive (FF): Accessible, lightweight hot hatch/compact dynamics designed to lower the barrier to entry for track-capable fun. Probably the all-new i20 N.

🔵 Entry Performance SUV: Combining daily practicality and high-riding utility with full track-honed chassis, cooling, and braking hardware. The return of the Kona N?

🔵 Front-Engine, Rear-Wheel Drive (FR): An authentic enthusiast layout engineered for balanced rear-wheel-drive drift angles and sports car dynamics. A total surprise model as of today.

🔵 High-Performance All-Wheel Drive (AWD): Advanced torque-vectoring dual-motor and mechanical AWD platforms engineered for all-weather traction and track pace. Should be the future Tucson N model.

One of the biggest strategic revelations from the investor presentation is the creation of a brand-new volume high-performance tier.

🔵 While cosmetic N-Line trims drove massive global volume (161,000 units last year) and dedicated N models commanded hardcore enthusiast respect (20,000 units), a significant gap remained between visual styling and full track packages.

Slated to arrive in the first half of 2027, the Santa Fe EREV marks a strategic shift for the brand in North America, bridging the gap between conventional hybrids and pure battery electric vehicles.

Just a week days after its official unveiling, the All-New has been caught out in the wild again, this time thanks to our colleagues at SHORTS CAR , giving enthusiasts an authentic look at the refreshed bestseller under natural daylight and in a new blue pearl paint. Shaking off the studio lights, the compact SUV makes an immediate impression on public roads with its sharper Parametric Dynamic grille, refined lighting signature, and more muscular skid plates that lend it a sturdier, premium presence.
