Quick answer: the 2022–2025 Hyundai Tucson 2.5L takes 6.13 US qt (5.8 L) of oil at an oil change. Hyundai specifies SAE 0W-20 (API SN PLUS/SP or ILSAC GF-6), full synthetic.
| Engine | Oil capacity (drain and refill) | Oil type |
|---|---|---|
| 2.5L GDI (Smartstream G2.5) | 6.13 US qt (5.8 L) | 0W-20 full synthetic (API SN PLUS/SP or ILSAC GF-6) |
More than a 5-quart jug. The 2.5L takes 6.13 quarts, so buy a 5-quart jug plus two quarts.

Recommended oil type
SAE 0W-20, API SN PLUS/SP or ILSAC GF-6. Hyundai asks for a full synthetic oil; with a lower grade, change oil and filter on the severe-maintenance schedule.
How to reset the oil change reminder on the 2022–2025 Hyundai Tucson
See also: Oil life reset by brand.
Hyundai handles the oil reminder through the Service Interval menu in the instrument cluster’s User Settings (on some models, in the infotainment Settings). The newer manuals list three items there: turn Service Interval on or off, Adjust Interval to set the time and distance, and Reset after an oil change. Older manuals (for example the 2018 Sonata) say to consult a Hyundai dealer to use the menu.
Oil change tips
- Buy a 5-quart jug plus two quarts.
- Hyundai lists a “drain and refill” volume. After refilling, run the engine for a minute, turn it off, wait a few minutes and check that the level is between the F and L marks on the dipstick before adding more.
