Figured I would start a thread for Canadians who own a Tucson. I’m in Ontario (GTA) myself.
I just picked up my N Line Hybrid yesterday. Haven’t done much with it yet, but so far it seems great. Taking it in to a local shop for tint and ceramic coating (yes, I know everyone has an opinion on ceramic coating lol). I’ll be putting my winters on fairly soon too. Once that’s all complete, I’ll probably test it out more.

Got my Hybrid Ultimate two weeks ago. So far so good, other than a few odd issues.
What kind of issues, if you don’t mind me asking?
The driver’s seat sometimes moves slightly when coming to a stop or when accelerating. I’ve also had the radar blocked and camera disabled errors a few times.

Lol, sure, why not? The more, the merrier! I almost grabbed the 2024 as well, but the 2025 was close in price and I liked the refresh they did this year.
I hear you on the tires. I’m putting on Continental Viking 7’s soon. It’ll be about $1,300 when all is said and done.

I’m in Ottawa as well. I picked up a 2025 Ultimate. Got a used winter tire set off FB Marketplace—$700 for steel 17s, X-Ice 235/65/17 with sensors.

Nice! Good to know. I’ve only had one highway drive with mine so far. Looking forward to more. It feels like a great car overall. I went with ash black, but the grey and deep sea blue also caught my eye. I wish the blue was available on the N Line trim. There were a few features exclusive to the Ultimate that I wish they included on the N Line, but not enough to make me spend extra for it.

I’ve noticed that the km/l takes a big hit when driving over 100 km/h, but it holds up well below that. Driving a hybrid has definitely made me more aware of my driving habits. I used to accelerate heavily, but now I ease into it more. It’s like a challenge to see how much I can get out of a tank!
It will be interesting to see how it handles in the winter.
@Adam
My wife complains about my slow driving too! I take it as a challenge to see how low I can get my fuel consumption—6.3 L/100 km since new and 6.2 on the current tank. A good mix of highway and city driving.
