Searching for a new compact-size SUV that feels luxurious and sporty and makes your daily commutes more enjoyable? The latest 2022 Hyundai Tucson is the answer. 

If you've been researching SUVs, you may be curious how Tucson stacks up to its competition. We're here to give you an honest review of the differences so that you can make the best car-buying decision for yourself and your family. 

Hyundai Tucson vs. Honda CR-V

Overview: The 2022 Honda CR-V has similar features to the Hyundai Tucson among the Compact SUVs, making it a formidable competitor. Both offer five-passenger seating and hybrid powertrains.

 

Tucson offers superior power, torque, and fuel economy. Its 2.5-liter engine generates up to 261 horsepower at its top trim and 178 lb-feet of torque. The CR-V only puts out 181 horsepower and 175 lbs of torque. Regarding fuel economy, the Tucson features 28 mpg city and 36 mpg highway. And the 2022 Hyundai Tucson plug-in hybrid has 70 mpg, which is great to help you save on fuel costs.

 

The Winner: The Tucson outmuscles the CR-V, making it superior in terms of performance, style, and affordability!

Hyundai Tucson vs. Toyota RAV4

Overview: A popular contender in the subcompact SUV is the Toyota RAV 4. Like Tucson, it offers a similar engine type, torque, and even hybrid option. However, there are a few areas where Tucson stands out. For one, they offer better warranty and roadside assistance coverage. 

The Tucson offers a five years or 60,000 miles standard warranty and ten years or 100,000 miles on their powertrain warranty. Comparatively, the RAV4 only receives three years or 36,000 miles of standard warranty and five years or 60,000 in powertrain warranty. 

Another advantage is Tucson's safety features. It features the premier Hyundai SmartSense package with advanced driving assistance systems. The Tucson receives an array of technologies like a forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, pedestrian detection, and more. While the RAV4 does have safety features, the Tucson features some high-end driver assist technologies like the Safe Exit Assist and Level 2 semi-autonomous driving that put it over the top.

The Winner: Based on the safety and warranty of the vehicle, the Tucson offers better durability and coverage than the RAV 4. While performance is similar, Tucson gives you the reliability you need. 

Hyundai Tuscon vs. Chevrolet Equinox 

Overview: The Chevrolet Equinox is a popular alternative to Tucson. They are similar in fuel economy, exterior size, and base engine output. However, there are many advantages to choosing Tucson over Equinox. 

First, if you're looking to make the jump to electric, there's the 2022 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid which features 226 horsepower and standard all-wheel drive. While Equinox plans to release its hybrid model, they haven't done so yet.


Where the Tucson shines above Equinox is its advanced technology. The upper trims offer a robust list of features such as heated front and rear seats, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot view monitor, Hyundai Digital Key, and Remote Park Assist. Not to mention, the 2022 Hyundai Tucson interior boasts a lot of techs, such as a 10.25-inch touchscreen and lavish interior styling.

The Winner: While Equinox is a great competitor, they can't compare the performance and innovation. You'll get loads of advanced infotainment features and safety packages, making Tucson the perfect all-around vehicle.
