The 2026 Tucson: Compact SUV Excellence in Your Community
The 2026 Hyundai Tucson Base model stands out in the compact SUV class with a focus on safety, versatility, and modern features, making it well-suited for families across Midwest City, Bethany, and Moore. This fourth-generation Tucson, nearing the final stage before the anticipated redesign in 2027 or 2028, delivers a practical driving experience paired with ample interior room.
The base powertrain consists of a 2.5-liter naturally aspirated inline-four engine generating 187 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque, matched to an 8-speed automatic transmission, prioritizing reliability and smooth operation over sporty performance. Fuel economy ratings are solid for this segment, with up to 25 mpg city and 33 mpg highway driving, ideal for commutes headed through Oklahoma City or weekend drives around Guthrie.
The Tucson’s spatial design improves passenger comfort with front and rear legroom just above 41 inches, comfortably accommodating five occupants. With a cargo capacity of 38.7 cubic feet behind the seats—expanding to 74.8 cubic feet with the rear seats folded flat—the Tucson surpasses competitors like the Nissan Rogue and Toyota RAV4 in usable space, making grocery runs, school carpools, and outdoor adventures much easier.
Compared to rival compact SUVs, the Tucson remains a dependable choice with its balance of safety, efficiency, and family-friendly amenities. The modern tech enhancements paired with a community-focused ownership experience at Joe Cooper Hyundai elevate it as a favorite in the Oklahoma City metro area.
