Hyundai Tucson Hybrid 2026

Easy to deal with, almost new vehicles and generous kms. Overall good experience. only critiscism is of the car itself which has an overactive "take a break" alarm that makes long trips extremely frustrating/annoying and cannot be turned off/down. I found a workaround that saved my sanity but Hyundai really need to address this feature! But as Turo hosts these guys were great.

The vehicle is in great condition, all scratches noted by the host for our awareness. Because it's hybrid, it's fuel efficient for our group of 6 people. The tires may soon need replacing but other than that, the overall rental experience is seamless and the price is reasonable. Will definitely rent again when we are back in Vancouver.
