It is possible that the very cold weather (lots of below 0 temps over the past couple of weeks) has negatively affected the mileage as the combustion engines runs a little more to help warm up the car and run all the accessories. Overall, the car is the nicest we've ever owned, so we're still OK with it, but I certainly hope the gas mileage gets better as the car breaks in further. This is really disappointing to me and I certainly could not recommend the car IF your number 1 factor is the gas mileage.

I will do a manual check of gas mileage next time I fill it, but I doubt the computer is very far off, if at all. In fact, this second tank is showing as 29 MPG average on the dash indicator. In fact, I have purposely driven VERY conservatively over the last two tankfuls in mixed city/highway driving and we can NOT do any better than 30 MPG.

We are both very conservative drivers who do not typically make jackrabbit starts/stops. The one significant negative and the reason for the 4-star rating is the gas mileage. The lane centering and adaptive cruise is very smooth compared with other makes/models I've driven with those features, and does not make jerky or abrupt corrections to lane or speed. Maybe I didn't press it hard enough, but I honestly couldn't tell the difference when it was in snow mode. It has a "snow mode", but it performed admirably in snow, ice, and slushy conditions without even putting it in snow mode (I have a 4WD Ford Ranger to compare with).
The hybrid is AWD and I have driven it extensively in snow over the past week. This car handles significantly better and has better road-feel in all conditions. We previously owned an Elantra GT, and the steering/handling seemed OK, but certainly not great sort of a "dead" feel at the steering wheel and I was a bit disappointed for something with "GT" in the title. I also own a Mustang GT, so I'm not comparing with a Prius or something like that. Acceleration onto the highway is more than adequate, maybe even impressive.
I'm very satisfied with the driving performance and comfort of the vehicle. Additionally, the load height is fairly low for an SUV and we've been able to get even heavy things in/out with no problem. The cargo area is surprisingly big for a car of this size, and it seems huge with the back seats folded forward. The rear seats also recline for the comfort of passengers on longer trips. The back seats are very comfortable and offer plenty of leg/head room for people up to, I'm guessing, about 6', even with the front seats being quite far back. We are very satisfied with the comfort of the seats and all the touch-points. I have had no issues with audio and environmental controls.not to mention you can do nearly all controls via voice command if you prefer. knobs/dials, and that's a very subjective issue for most people. Nearly all controls are touch sensitive vs. This would take her several sessions if I was not able to assist. Our sales rep did spend an hour with us to go over the tech, but it was very overwhelming for my wife. I have driven several rental cars with these features and have been comfortable from day 1. Though my wife has initially been a little more tentative about some of the tech features (lane centering, adaptive cruise, multiple audio warnings, etc.). Having decided to buy a Limited version for the first time in our lives, we have been very happy with the features and comfort of this car. We paid "only" $1,200 over MSRP for dealer installed, no-value-to-me options that we didn't want, but it was the best deal we could find. fabric/paint protector, etc.) and weren't mentioned until well into the buying process. Some dealers hid their mark-ups as "dealer installed options" that weren't optional (i.e. It took almost a year to receive our 2023 Tucson and we "survived" a very frustrating buying environment, where ALL Hyundai and Toyota dealers for a 200-mile radius … were adding significant "market conditions" mark-ups ($3k - $5k) over MSRP (Dayton, OH). Though I was more attracted to the Rav's better gas mileage, in the end, it came down to Hyundai's significantly better warranty. We researched the Tucson Hybrid Limited and Toyota Rav4 Hybrid carefully.
