What price are Hyundai Tucson cars really selling for in the UK? Across different trim and fuel types, NimbleFins analysis of brand new cars for sale in summer 2024 found that the average price for a brand new Hyundai Tucson across different trim and fuel types was £35,854 (ranging from £33,714 for a 160PS 6-speed manual transmission to £43,146 for the 252PS Plug-in Hybrid). These figures reflects the average of 317 brand new vehicles for sale across the five trim levels and four engine types.
Cost of a used Hyundai Tucson
As with all vehicles, the cost of a used Hyundai Tucson declines with car age. NimbleFins analysis of over 1,000 Hyundai Tucson vehicles in the used car market indicates that cars lose around £2,600 on average if they are resold sometime in their first registration year, representing around 7% depreciation—this is quite low, indicating the Tuscon holds its value well comparably. Then a Hyundai Tucson depreciates another 11-13% per year in the next few years.
| Used Hyundai Tucson Cost | Age | Average Price | % Depreciation |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 reg | Less than 1 year old | £33,224 | -7% |
| 2023 reg | 1 - 2 years old | £29,435 | -11% |
| 2022 reg | 2 - 3 years old | £25,641 | -13% |
Hyundai Tucson Insurance Costs
NimbleFins market tests of hundreds of cheap car insurance policies found that a low-risk driver could pay as little as £400 a year or so to insure an entry-level Hyundai Tucson, but that the more premium trim levels and hybrid vehicles might cost our sample driver around 20% more, bringing their insurance cost up to nearly £500 a year. This is largely because a more expensive vehicle would cost more to replace in the event of theft or write off—resulting in higher premiums.
