The fine print: each year’s verdict is computed from public NHTSA complaint and recall records for the Hyundai Tucson Fuel Cell as a model, not for any individual car. A well-kept example of a weaker year can outlast a neglected strong one. Informational only, so always get a professional pre-purchase inspection.
