The places you drive every week say a lot about the Hyundai that fits you best.
Bikes, strollers and muddy shoes reward easy loading. The Tucson and Santa Cruz handle trail gear, and the Santa Cruz bed keeps the dirt out of the cabin.
Tight parking and short station runs suit a smaller vehicle. The Kona and Elantra are easy to place, and the Tucson Plug-in Hybrid can cover many short trips on electricity.
Family outings with friends in tow call for a third row. The Santa Fe, Palisade and electric IONIQ 9 carry six to eight people.
Long I-94 miles and lake-house trailers favor comfort and towing. A properly equipped Palisade or Santa Fe XRT handles a small boat, and hybrids cut fuel stops.
From the subcompact Venue and Kona to the compact Tucson and the three-row Santa Fe and Palisade, most come with available HTRAC AWD. The Santa Cruz adds an open bed.
The compact Elantra and midsize Sonata deliver strong mileage and roomy cabins, with sporty N Line versions and efficient hybrids.
Hybrid versions of the Elantra, Sonata, Tucson, Santa Fe and Palisade, plus the Tucson Plug-in Hybrid with up to 32 miles of electric range (EPA est.).
The IONIQ 5 and three-row IONIQ 9 use 800-volt fast charging, per Hyundai. The Kona Electric and IONIQ 6 have had limited new availability, so ask our team.
The Elantra N offers 276 hp and a standard manual, and the electric IONIQ 5 N brings track-focused power. Availability is often limited.

Yes. Tell us how many people you carry, how far you drive, whether you tow and whether you can charge at home. Our team will narrow the lineup to two or three models and set up back-to-back test drives.
The Kona is shorter and easier to park, with up to 31 mpg combined (EPA est.) from its 2.0L engine. The Tucson offers more rear-seat and cargo space plus hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions. If you regularly carry passengers, the Tucson is usually the better fit.
The Elantra, Venue and Kona are popular first new cars thanks to their manageable size, efficiency and standard Hyundai SmartSense driver assistance. Our finance team can explain first-time buyer options and how a down payment affects your monthly budget.
The Venue and Kona are the most budget-focused new Hyundai SUVs, followed by the Tucson. Check our new Hyundai specials for current offers, and compare used and Hyundai Certified Used SUVs if you want to stretch your budget further.
Hyundai offers change monthly and may include finance, lease and bonus cash programs, along with special programs for eligible groups. See our offers and incentives page and our new Hyundai specials for current details, since eligibility varies.
Yes, most new Hyundai models can be leased, subject to credit approval. Leasing usually means a lower monthly payment and a new vehicle every few years, with mileage limits. Our finance team can compare lease and finance options side by side.
Our finance team works with multiple lenders and reviews options for shoppers with all kinds of credit history. Approval and terms depend on the lender, so we cannot promise approval, but applying online first helps us start the conversation. A larger down payment or a trade-in can also help.
