Hyundai Tucson Oil Change Interval & Oil Type
When to change the oil on a 2022-2024 (NX4) Hyundai Tucson, and what oil it takes.
| Oil change interval | 7,500 mi / 12 mo normal; 3,750 mi / 6 mo severe |
|---|---|
| Engine / oil | 2.5L NA Smartstream or 1.6L turbo hybrid/PHEV; 0W-20 synthetic; 8-speed auto / 6-speed auto (hybrid) |
| Oil filter | Replace with every oil change |
Hyundai Tucson note: Coolant's first interval is long (120k) then drops sharply (~24-30k) — easy to forget the second cycle. On-time, documented oil changes matter given Hyundai/Kia engine-warranty history.
