The electorate is based on the southern part of the city of Lower Hutt. It was formed in 1996 from the old electorates of Pencarrow and Eastern Hutt. Hutt South consists of the southern suburbs of Lower Hutt, Petone, Wainuiomata, and Eastbourne.
Following the 2014 boundary review, Hutt South lost Naenae and a small part of Epuni to , in exchange for the suburbs of Kelson and Belmont. It also gained the suburbs of Tirohanga, Harbour View, Normandale, Maungaraki and Korokoro from , meaning the entire Hutt Valley was now covered by just two electorates (Rimutaka and Hutt South).
Since 2014, the following suburbs of Lower Hutt fall within Hutt South.
In the 2025 boundary review, Hutt South and Remutaka both shifted south-westwards, with the former taking in Newlands, a suburb of Wellington City. This is effective from the 2026 election.
At the first MMP election in , Hutt South replaced the earlier electorate of Pencarrow, which was then held by Trevor Mallard. Mallard was returned at every general election until he moved to list-only at the 2017 election.
