Go electric(ish) in Iceland — without range anxiety!
Meet the Hyundai Tucson Plug-in Hybrid 4WD — or a similar model from our eco-friendly fleet. This mid-size SUV blends plug-in electric tech with all-wheel drive confidence, perfect for Iceland’s unpredictable roads and weather. Whether you’re zipping through Reykjavík or looping the Ring Road, you’ll drive smarter without overspending.
Why it’s a thrifty-smart choice
- All-wheel drive for all-year roads: From icy mornings to summer gravel, the 4WD system gives you more grip, more confidence.
- Plug-in hybrid = big-time fuel savings: Drive electric around town, switch to gas for longer legs. It’s smooth, efficient, and good for the planet (and your wallet).
- Spacious & comfy: Seats 5 adults and packs a 616L boot — that’s roomy enough for 3–4 large suitcases plus hiking gear.
- Tech that helps you chill: Enjoy Apple CarPlay™, built-in nav, a rear-view camera, heated seats, and smart cruise control.
- Quieter ride, cleaner conscience: Gliding silently in EV mode is perfect for city drives or early morning aurora hunts.
Designed for Iceland’s wild side
Iceland’s weather can change in a blink — sunshine one minute, wind and sleet the next. Add to that some bumpy gravel roads, steep mountain passes, and unexpected sheep crossings, and you’ll be glad you picked a 4WD like the Tucson PHEV. The car’s solid grip and smooth handling make it a reliable choice whether you’re driving in summer rain or through snow-dusted valleys in winter. Just remember: while this SUV can handle a lot, highland F-roads are still off-limits — those are 4×4-only terrain, not hybrid-friendly.
Hyundai Tucson PHEV Iceland driving suitability
- ✅ Great for paved roads, gravel routes, and the full Ring Road
- ✅ Allowed on road 35 and 550
- ❌ Not allowed on F-roads (highland mountain roads)
