2017 Hyundai Tucson - Review and Road Test

[@Acc0rd79]

bought my wife a '14 Tucson limited model and she loves it. I do really like the new design and wish we would have had a chance at it but she is very happy with hers and doesn't plan to ever let it go. Good job here Hyundai.

[@b.f.378]

It just amazes me how nice these Hyundai models have turned out to look... & this is def. one of the best looking compact crossovers out there and it looks premium as well, especially how the tail lights light up.

[@majestic-cm8dv]

I just bought one. Smooth drive. Awesome vehicle

[@Rebel_71123]

So you bought the one with the DCT transmission? Many have complained about it.

[@6FeetDeep4U]

AJ R It's true that some people complained about the transmission hesitating from a start. Mine did it a total of 4 times. The last recall did some kind of an update for it & it's been better than ever. I'm currently approaching 15K & I am still very happy with it. My mileage has been better than the window stickers estimates & it's surprisingly quick for a little 4 banger turbo. Everyone has their own opinion & likes/dislikes, but overall I am really Happy with my Hyundai.

[@rifleman542]

Tucson's look is much aggressive and sportier than the CX-5 I think! The CX-5 looks a bit girlish, mommy kind to me.

[@roypark5363]

I think I get it lol BUT CX-5 has way better LED Daytime running light. This is for sure. Hyundai's LED DRL on down part of bumper looks MEH. LED DRL appears to be really cool on CX-5 and CR-V.

Zach is doing a good job again.... I liked the Tucson I saw today, interior well thought on top of good workmanship.

[@digiver]

Design wise, tucson and cx5 are the best in my view

[@espedale]

+digiver I agree, but the Hyundai has the edge in terms of looks. I was considering both and actually parked a 2016 Tucson next to a CX-5. The Tucson looks much better, IMO. The alloy wheels and fluid lines really set it apart. That funky little curve at the bottom of the door on the CX-5 make it look like a crushed aluminum can. That said, you can't go wrong purchasing either one.

[@digiver]

espedale Tucson does look more substantial

[@maliburide]

+digiver I've driven both and The Hyundai is smoother and much quieter. I was amazed by this car/SUV. The Hyundai is a bit better looking to me.

Excellent Review Zach! Your choice of vocabulary to describe the vehicle exudes a sense of academic tenancy lacking in other channels. Nice work #KBB.

[@redneon06]

I want it! I'm gonna get one! It's amazing tho I have yet to test drive it! Will go this weekend.

[@chuckers40]

I got a chance to see the refreshed 2019 Tucson. The refreshed model looks good. The biggest changes are in the front and the interior. I have the 2018 Tucson SEL Plus.

[@mextijuas5]

1 week ago Me and my wife test drove a lot of small crossovers since we are planning on buying one this summer. Abut this car, this guy like every other reviewer got the top of the line model wit all the package. Out of all the crossover just by specs and online pictures the Mazda Cx5 and hyundai Tucson was at our top two, third the HRV, fourth rav4, fit was the crv. In person it all change except for the Mazda that now remain at the top and very close to it the Nissan rogue. The tucson has 4 trims, but only the top limited trim feels ok, all the others have way too much hard plastic and the interior it's boring. I only accept hard plastics in a old car or a off road one. The tucson has the best exterior, perdiod! but I care more for the interior since it's where I'm going to spend all of my time. That dual clutch and turbo has to much lag for a young guy like me who loves driving. Hyundai is no loner the best bang for the buck car, it's just as everyone else. today every car has almost about all the same specs, fuel economy, price, reliability and it all comes down to what you like best.

[@the5threview455]

Wait it has duel clutch?

[@lawrencey0y]

The Tucson interior is cheap looking

[@Incolere]

I totally had to do research and find out info about the dual-clutch because for a while I really thought that there was something wrong with the engine but now that I've had my 2017 Tucson for a while I've gotten used to it and what I do is I drive it in sport mode and it doesn't have that lag so if anybody's reading this put it in sport mode and you'll notice a difference with the get up and go...... but I absolutely love it.... it was such an on time blessing from the Lord...💚

[@ZacGolus]

I love moonlight sonata.

[@trenchy1990]

Theyve done a software update for the cpu. The DCT is fantastic now. Glad I bought the top trim when I did.

[@autumncollins6464]

Why does everyone hate the sound if u can hear the crap When I'm in a car and there's no music just that sound of the wind and the car going fast u can hear it to me it's so relaxing .

[@codystarrs]

THIS IS MY FIRST SUV......... I CHOSE THE HYUNDA TUCSON BECAUSE OF THE STYLE, COLOR, FEATURES AND THE TEST DRIVE SOLD ME THAT THIS SUV WAS FOR ME.THIS IS MY FIRST WINTER WITH MY TUCSON AND IT HANDLES GREAT IN THE SNOW WITH MY AWD. I LOVE IT .............

[@kbb]

Thats awesome, Wayne!

[@chuckers40]

@@kbb I've have the 2018 Tucson SEL plus for a couple of months to along with 2017 Elantra value edition. Love it, it handles great.

[@TheGtracer1994]

It's worth noting that now, Hyundai has the, "SE Plus" trim, which gives you the larger touch screen, heated seats, air vents for the rear, and most other options found on the, "Limited" for thousands less. You get the 2.0 and 6 speed auto, which I think has more than enough power for daily driving and I feel may be better for long term durability. I just bought a 2017 Tucson SE Plus and it is absolutely perfect!

[@chuckers40]

I saw it. It's nice. The Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage are the challengers to the Mazda CX5, Honda CRV and Toyota RAV4

[@johnlopezjr.3830]

How has it kept up?

[@trenchy1990]

There is cruise control in the highlander range awd. The 2.0l Turbo Diesel is much better than the 1.6l petrol as well.

[@marktuyet]

and best driver and front passenger crash rating in its class ...

[@chuckers40]

You have to figure at some point that Hyundai and Kia will come out with a subcompact suv/cuv. It's should be based on the Accent and Rio's body. I could see the next generation Kia Soul will become that subcompact suv/cuv.

[@waynelee6216]

[@adamsytsma1681]

Nothing distinguishable beside the major warranty difference! I was able to get 3K off the window of my 2016 fully loaded AWD Limited. That made the price perfect for me. As for not having the adaptive cruise, just look at the Sonata. It has rat goofy looking black rectangle on the grill that stands out. I am glad my Tucson doesn't have that. If it should have had anything additional, it should have had a heated steering wheel. You get alot of vehicle for the money & man is it quiet!

+Autumn Collins Yes. I'm more into sports cars but i actually like this car, and no one is gonna let me get a sports car for my first car.

[@wtrdogg20]

Well, my first new car was a Hyundai Accent 2007. It was my workhorse for 10 years... It went with me to all the places we were able to go. And I sold it running like day one and still smelling like new, after 10 years and over 125000 miles, and because I needed a bigger car... I never had a major problem with it. So in my experience, Hyundai was a good brand for me.

[@salkhseth2571]

is the seat really that like a rock solid?

[@opaextreme9282]

I'd like to see more about how the power was in these review.. 0-60 1/4 mile ? passing power, etc. it's big deal to me and part of my decision on buying new suv soon.. it does have locking rear diff, so some mild off roading would be great too

[@hena5172]

Hi Great video

[@davidzavala337]

well since I'm in a budget and it's not the car of our dreams (my dream car has to be cool on the inside with a futuristic interior and customizable gauges and power) I'm leaning towards the basic SE with all the packages and keep it for the 10 years.

[@KennyPang]

Toyota needs to hire Hyundai designers. Their design looks so good.

[@adamaguiar7489]

I have the 2017 Tuscan DCT and at first was mostly fine, till I started seeing the "high temp, stop safely" message on dash when I was in stop and go traffic. It is not the normal overheating, but instead due to the dual clutch system. The clutches overheat for the "eco-friendly system". Last time it happened I couldn't pull over and the car died in traffic for 15mins. It is extremely INCONVENIENT and UNSAFE! Hyundai should be ashamed of themselves for sacrificing safety and efficiency for some marginal environmental impact in this 'eco-friendly' DCT. I will never buy another Hyundai again!

This car is now 14,000 If you buy it at the right time, and so is the Mazda. I can’t decide if I should buy a 2017 CX-5 sport Mazda or a 2017 Se Tucson. The Mazda looks more better and provides more luxury like leather stitching everywhere at a cheaper price than the Hyundai, they are both good reliable cars. It’s a tough choice, Honda and all the other big name brands just jack up the price because they can.

Excellent except the black leather interior lacks a high-end look to match the Limited optioning. There is no bright work or trim to break up the sea of black everywhere or add visual focal points. There is so much more they could have done. Even a little bit would've been nice. In that regard, Hyundai not up to the competition, even amongst their own vehicles. WIth exception of the cheap Accent, all Hyundais have nicely executed, trimmed & appealing BLACK interiors.
