Hyundai Tucson
Whether you like the bold exterior look or not, the Tucson is a head-turner. There are multiple trim levels featuring a 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine that produces 187 horsepower. For better fuel economy, the Tucson Hybrid is the answer with a combined rating of 6.4 L/100 km. A plug-in hybrid variant tops the range, delivering 261 horsepower and traveling up to 53 km on battery power only. The gas-electric Tucsons can tow a maximum of 2,000 pounds, however.
