2025 HYUNDAI TUCSON HYBRID LIMITED – NIGHT REVIEW: HEADLIGHTS, INTERIOR LIGHTING & TECH

EV Channels Review

This night review of the 2025 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid Limited AWD focuses on its lighting systems. The reviewer praises the highly customizable ambient lighting, offering a wide range of colors and brightness settings that can even be linked to drive modes. However, the vehicle falls short in critical areas. The cargo area lighting is deemed a major weakness, described as poorly designed with insufficient brightness and problematic placement causing shadows. The quad projector headlights, while aesthetically promising, are found to be mediocre in real-world performance. Both low and high beams lack brightness and suffer from an inconsistent beam pattern with a low cutoff, limiting visibility on the sides of the road. While adequate, they don't meet the expectations set by the four-projector setup. The reviewer highlights that while interior and exterior lighting are generally functional, the lack of attention to detail in areas like cargo illumination and the mediocre headlight performance detract from the overall user experience, especially for night driving in dark environments.
