Thanks for the effort in yout video. I never understoond the Santa Fe to be honest. I was in the market for the Tucson, then I tried the Santa Fe, I was thinking it has a different power train as it looked (bigger), then I realized they are almost identical, and it was even a surprise to realize that from inside, Tucson has a bigger cargo space and a larger head space. Weird.

This is the most useful vid on this subject.Thank you!!!!

Really wish there was a hybrid version of this - no charging infrastructure where I live.

I just bought a Select S with the naturally aspirated 4 cylinder. With 4000 miles on the odometer, I’m getting 32-33 mpg on the highway and 27-28 combined city/highway. I drive the speed limit at 70 mph on the highway. No complaints on the fuel economy levels, it’s a fun car. If Mazda were smart they would keep the re-design minimal, add some technology and see where it goes. I find CX 5 owners love their cars.

looks like you had the vehicle in "EV" mode at the start (Looking at the Dash display and theme), which is why the engine never ran in your first 30 odd miles. Would be interesting to see the results in you had it in "Normal" from the start. I expect you wouldn't have seen the battery fully discharge and it would have used more gas power. It would be really interesting to see if that had any effect on MPG's overall for the 103 miles driven.

How do I get one? 🤔

In my 23 LC Convertible, I got 32.8 MPG in comfort mode, driving at posted highway speeds of 65 & 70 MPH. My round-trip miles totaled 228 miles.

you should have a look at the panel gaps on a Nissan Leaf ZE1. That Tesla looks amazing by comparison.

Only owner of 2016 X5 40e plug in. I have found that each system has advantages. Battery for low speed and gas for highway speeds. Can the CX90 be manipulated to force ICE on the highway and EV in the city? I think the drive mode would force EV as long as the battery has a charge?

This was supposed to review the Santa Fe PHEV. The car you show throughout the video may be a hybrid, but it’s not a PHEV because there’s no charging port shown on the outside. So it’s hard to tell whether all the performance you describe also applies to the PHEV. Also, what did you not like about the vehicle? Only saying good things about it takes away from your objectivity.

Real world driving, (not a test loop). My daily commute is 48.5 miles each way. I have a 2023 XLT Hybrid. I have put just over 23,000 miles on it since I bought it Sept 8, 2023. My commute consists of 48.6 miles each way, of that 34 miles is Interstate, with Speed Limits of 70, 65, and 55 mph. My real world MPG, (calculated using the Fuelio app), is 39.47. It varies based on weather, (colder is worse). During the winter months I averaged only about 36.5 mpg, during the rest of the year I have averaged about 42 mpg. I have found the truck computer to be 2.5 to 3 mpg "optimistic" compared to actual calculations. That said 39.5 mpg over 23,000+ miles in the 10 months I have owned it matches my Chevy Cruze Eco, that my Maverick replaced, PLUS I can carry gas cans, and other items I could not carry in my car. I do have a Leer High Rise Cap on the Maverick, which did not seem to affect my MPGs at all. It was installed in January, (so during the colder weather), but I am still seeing 42-43 mpg, (actual calculated), right now during the warm weather. Prior to that I had a "roll up" soft tonneau cover over the bed. I live in Maryland, so the winter weather is NOT extreme cold, nor the length of cold, that some may face in the more northern regions. I have , of course, had "outlier" tanks where I got extremely good, or bad mpgs. According to Fuelio's calculations, my best tank was 45.81 mpg, and the worst was 33.51 mpg. My last tank filled on July 4th, was 42.23 mpg. I have found the Engine RPM's routinely stay around 2,100 to 2,500 with moderate acceleration. They only go higher than that with "foot on the floor" driving. So the RPMs don't bother me too much. I use an OBD II Bluetooth dongle, running through an app on my phone for real time data, which includes RPM, Engine Coolant Temp, & HV Battery Level of Charge. The truck will run on electric, (power load permitting) until the HV battery gets down to 31-34%. Once the ICE turns on it will not shut off until the coolant temp tops 120 degrees F. (If the heater is on, it will take it higher, and the ICE will turn on more often as required by the cabin heater). The HV battery pack goes down to about 32% and up to about 72%. Very rarely will it go beyond those high and low marks. Oh, and for correctness, the color of your Maverick is Atlas Blue, NOT Alto Blue. Alto Blue is the very dark Blue color, (mine is Alto Blue).

Still haven't seen any of them in the wild. Or on any Stellantis lots....anywhere😂

If you are concerned about MPG, this is not the car for you. I have a '23 and it's my daily driver, but I drive less than 10 miles per day so I don't care. But it is much more fun to "put your foot in it."

i just bought a bank auctioned 2012 MS 85D with 53k miles for 7k. it needs some love but i feel like i got a great car for my money. to anyone in the comments considering getting one in 2024 it doesn’t feel outdated at all imo. the thing was a decade ahead of its time so it still feels really modern. if you can find one for a good deal i’d 100% recommend.

Is sport the same as individual?

Ioniq 5 is dead plain

I have a 23 and, to be honest, I prefer the trackpad to the touch screen. I find it less distracting. The only new feature I wished it had is the 360-view cam.

Bwahahaha! “Freeze my butt off” Come to Canada. Joking aside, appreciate the video. I’ll be taking possession of a 2023 Turbo Sport premium this week! Excited!

I have owned a 2023 Ioniq 5 since July of 2023. I have a two year lease with 30,000 miles. I have free electric through the entire lease. I leased it in Myrtle Beach, and on the way North, I was the fastest car on I-95. Unfortunately finding a charger was a nightmare. They were either broken or the lines were incredibly long. I live in an apartment in Pennsylvania and the winter proved to be challenging as well. Do not leave your Ioniq 5 outside when the temperature is below freezing. It is not as bad as a Tesla, but the battery did drop to the single digits.

Please send me any info you think is important to know. - We just dont need as big as the Honda Ridgeline anymore and Tacoma "flat" floorpans dont work with a bad back anymore.

The main issue with this configuration for Jeep is that no bespoke desert runner, baja 500/1000 truck, trophy truck etc has a solid front axel anymore. But if you want a convertible vehicle or are a Jeep purist and you want to go dune running with your friends with raptors you can hang…kinda. Good review though. And they are giving these away now so a lot of folks may be looking at them again.

826 miles ??? Wow thats great! I can drive 4hrs twice without fueling up

A good 10-speed auto tranny would have made this a different kind of beast. It also would have allowed it to get much better fuel economy. I feel like Toyota rushed the production of this vehicle. They claim that they couldn't put even an 8-speed into this because it couldn't fit. However, I call BS because the Lexus LC500 has a 10-speed auto and it's a much smaller vehicle than this. Hence why I stated that this vehicle was rushed to production. The Grand Highlander is still impressive, but I feel like it could have been much, MUCH better.

Thanks for the visual. Appreciated

Just drove this for the first time for the weekend. I loved it. But it definitely feels bigger but not as much storage as it could have with all that space. And compared to the cx9, when you take turns it does feel a little wobbly but it's not a deal breaker. I'm still looking at buying the cx9 since repairs on this vehicle will most likely be very expensive due to the fact that the timing chain was placed in back of engine and will require the engine to be lifted for many major repairs. But i do love that HUD, by far one of my favorite features along with wireless Android Auto.

Dude, drive with both hands. Especially when you are showing us how the vehicle handled demanding turns. I guess okay since you went through most of them with two fingers in the wheel. Totally inappropriate and irresponsible.

😂😂😂N O P E😂😂😂.........

The hybrid does not come with a tow package

Amazing video 🎉 thinks ❤

Thanks for posting myself Maverick hybrid always get 50 MPG

It holds up much better than I expected. Positively surprised. But I gotta say panel gaps on my old 2007 bimmer still looked almost perfect a year ago even though it had some bodywork done in the front back in 2009.

262 miles is terrible, but I like the look of it.

thanks for the review, however, please remove that static electricity sound you put while switching scenes, too loud

They would give this model the Trackhawk wheels & not the other models 😒

I am not really finding any reviews on how much storage there is with the seats down. A lot of people use vans for hauling sports gear and sleeping in on occasion. (think surfboards, kayaks bikes) So not all van users are interested in how many children and sticky toys you can haul around. Same goes for minivans. How about having sex in it? To all those people commenting that 260 miles is not enough, it is much larger and less aero dynamic than most electric cars. If it charges to 80 percent in a half an hour you could charge it for lunch and drive for four hours in the morning at 65. I think those people have never really owned an electric car. We are all going to die from global warming so just maybe a slight inconvenience might be worth the trouble ehh? My electric cars are charged 100% off my roof top solar when in town.

Sounds great but the infotainment system needing reboots to work is disappointing. System updates do not fix the issue?

4 cylinder turbo way better then that 3.5 V-6 I had one no torque car engine love my 2024 tacoma TRD off-road almost 11,000 miles now

4 cylinder Turbo TRASH

When will the tranny crap out or the engine implode 🤔

Great video helpful with diognoses and repair thanks

... is the odometer lying?

Nice video going to buy an Id4 now from 2021 with 25km!! I’m curious about the software bugs you mentioned!! Haven’t the update resolved them?

Other reviewers have stated they can use 87 octane in this Mazda PHEV though you won't get the full rated HP about 20 or 30 less than premium.

Is there a way to set up more than 3 profiles. we are 4 people in our family who drive and the car only has 3 mapped buttons.

Thank you for sharing!

I'm getting my Mach-E next week. Can't wait and thanks for this great video

Car looks great. Are those wheels off a full size Bronco? What size are they?

They copied Jaguar's Styling

I have cx-5 turbo , and I get around 20mpg in city with traffic, around 26-27mpg on highway with 75miles/h or 28-29 with 65-70miles/h. I think EPA rating is quite fair. Not the best economy but I like the car.

funny you should say that "not that you care" lol my friend againts EVERYONES ADVICE got a last call challenger scat pack.....hese owned it for 6 months and now he wants to get rid of it....why? he cant afford it....payments too high....gas is too expensive and insurance is insaine......
