What Hyundai Tucson do most buyers choose?

The Hyundai Tucson years with the most listings are 2024, 2023, and 2025.

These higher-volume years tend to be popular because they give you a wider selection of trims, prices, and mileage levels to compare. They also tend to be the easiest years to shop if you want a balance of newer features and strong availability.

What is the Hyundai Tucson's resale value?

Most Tucson model years are down year over year, which can work in your favor if you're shopping used and want to avoid paying peak prices. The declines are especially noticeable on several recent and mid-cycle years, while a few years are changing only slightly. That makes the Tucson a model with generally softening prices rather than a lineup that's broadly holding firm.

The 2023 model year is holding steady, with prices close to flat year-over-year.

The 2023, 2018, and 2014 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

The 2024 Tucson includes standard driver assistance features including automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, pedestrian and cyclist detection, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, automatic high beams, driver attention monitoring, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert.

For the safest used buy, the 2016 and 2024 models both post the highest confirmed score of 10/10.
