I've had my car for 8 years and I remember thinking when I bought it "my next car will definitely be electric or a plug in hybrid" but it needs to be at least a little bit fun to drive. It's amazing that it has taken until 2021 model years to get affordable hybrids with 250+ hp

I'm from Sweden and I purchased a Tucson Hybrid top trim level with the ECS adaptive suspension in januari and it will arrive at the end of april. I testdrove a demo car from the dealership for a week before I ordered it and I also drove the RAV4 hybrid for 3 days because it was between the 2 cars. However I felt that Tucson was more enjoyable to drive, better refined and more quiete than RAV4 and as Alex said the engine didn't rev like the RAV4. Although RAV4 had better fuel consumption, I went for Tucson.

Oh nice observation, I tested these 2 recently and while yes the cabin of the Tucson was quiter, it wasn't by much. For me the RAV4 felt a lot quicker, it felt like it had more torque and was willing to get up and go and sometimes I even got wheelspin, while still getting better fuel economy than the Tucson, overall both were nice cars and u can't go wrong with both

@@alwaysiyi272 I agree, both cars are very nice and solid but one more thing that I went with Tucson is that Hyundai in Europe offers 5 year new car warranty with unlimited milage and 8 year battery warranty with 160 000 km, while Toyota offers 3 year new car warranty or 100 000 km and 5 year battery warranty with 100 000 km.

Now that's an impressive hybrid! Looks nice, too. The flanks are a bit busier than I prefer, but the overall effect is much more harmonious than the Elantra. That interior just looks classy, much better than any RAV4 or CR-V, with some thoughtful featutes. I think this should do very well, especially if the hybrid can get those kind of the economy numbers.

There is no tactile feel so you have to look at what you're pressing I really doubt even after owning one for a long time you would be able to distinguish the difference between the volume up and down button or temperature up and down while driving. You don't have that problem with a button or a knob.

For sure. A perfect example of that is the fact that the subcompact KIA Seltos has the same passenger room as the compact RAV4. However, it feels bigger/roomier inside due to it having a more sleek and modern design. I recently had a KIA Seltos SX turbo and was just checking out a RAV4 at a dealer one day as I had never been in one. I couldn’t believe how cramped the front felt due to poor design. The cheap materials didn’t impress me either and it really made me appreciate my Seltos even more. However, I did trade in my Seltos lease early and got the a 2023 Tucson Limited for an incredible deal about 2 months ago. This car is simply amazing.

This averages 7-8L per 100km which i honestly thought it would be better, no sunglass holder is annoying and lastly this would have benefited with hud to give it that added edge over the sportage. Other than that i love it and chose it over the sportage because of aesthetics alone personally i find it better looking.

I don't believe Alex mentioned this but Hyundai gives a 10 year 100k warranty on their new vehicles and I believe Toyota is offering a 10 year 150k mile on their hybrids. Because I prefer that Toyota offers physical buttons, a more traditional gear selector, and a better warranty I would go with a Rav4 hybrid.

alex, not so sure all these rather randomly placed hard lines will age well. IF they were in my design class...the designer would have to explain each and every one and why it was there. does it make the ENTIRE car flow? will they stay the years? will they, like the lines in the earlier sonata, suddenly get wiped away leaving the owners with a red flag dating their car??? this car borrows SO much from ford. the mustang rear lights. the corsair and others line across the rear fender. the lincoln cross the hatch red light...which everybody has seen fit to steal. i think my biggest worries with the hyundai products, as well as the lincoln, designs are they AGE quickly. in both circumstances, i think it is because they had been/still are, trying to develop a family look. when trying to find this they change so drastically they actually age the look of the car just purchased a few years ago. hopefully lincoln has done this, but somehow they still seem rather thin on the quality look. unlike ford, where most of their cars and trucks STILL look solid when up against and newer models, lincoln seems to struggle. a ford explorer purchased10 years ago STILL looks a fresh as newer models. and the recent design stayed close to the old and in doing so made sure the explorer will look good years to come. kia seems ok...they caught that tiger grill and are riding it hard...but hopefully they won't mess it up.

Ours has a mechanical AWD which have handled Pennsylvania winter weather fine and we like that the rear seats slide and recline giving good rear seat room.

I really like this car. But I like the new Santa Cruz even more. My 2 main complaints are the lack of volume and tuning knobs and physical buttons on the top trims and the low mounted indicators. The first issue can be mostly fixed by buying a lower trim such as the SEL, but nothing can be done about the low mounted indicators. I’ve noticed some audis, infinitis, minis, toyotas, etc utilizing those low mounted indicators and I’m not a big fan of them. Today I saw a new mini clubman with the brake lights mounted low in the bumper. The mini is already fairly small and low and to mount the brake lights so low in the bumper is baffling.

Hyundai is just killing it in all segments of the market, as is their sister company Kia. And their premium division, Genesis, is what Lexus was to the luxury segment 30 years ago, and will no doubt be just as successful.

Great video Alex!! Maybe I missed it in the video, but for a given trim level, what is the premium to be paid for the hybridization of the Tucson? I think this is a key factor to consider in assessing whether getting a hybrid version of any vehicle is worth it based on the buyer’s annual mileage.

The hybrid seems like it would compete well either thr RAV4, although when it comes to PHEV the RAV4 still reigns king, when talking about power, range and efficiency

I love it ! I stopped at the dealer and he said he wouldn't get them till fall (hybrid) so I bought a serento hybrid because I needed a car . I don't need the extra seat in back or the size so I may have gotten the hyundai if I had the choice. I don't like the six speed wish it had cvt I think they are perfect for hybrid cars . It's the only thing I don't like about the new car .

ALEX...What did you think of the all touch screen infotainment and AC controls? I test drove and really hated not having the physical buttons and found it difficult to use while driving, curious on your thoughts, thanks!!!

The car does come with voice recognition on higher trims(lower trims have smaller infotainment and physical buttons). It's like having an Alexa in your car. Technology is right there. Surprised Alex haven't gone in depth about the feature. You can literally tell the car to roll up windows, change volume turn on ac or heat., etc. But if have to use the buttons for that old school feeling, get the lower trim levels.

Love the review sir. I'm torn between this & the Maverick. Being honest with myself, the Maverick optioned up the way I want, would be just about the same price. The Tucson offers way more legroom but no truck bed. Both can tow the same amount though.. Now if only they could shove this driveline setup in the Soul or even Seltos. 90% of the time, it's just me making my 38mile 1 way commute.

I think that by a traditional automatic transmission you are referring to transmission with torque converter ? In Europe, Tucson HEV and PHEV are sold with DCT, and that is by no means traditional. For me, CVT don't exist :).

Honestly it's hard not to consider the PHEV for me, with my daily commute it'd be most likely fully electric over 75% and put petrol once a month. Also Alex, if you get a DJI ronin RS2 you could have backup for the walk-around shots for when you're a one man band.

For EV only range, the Toyota system makes the most sense. When plug-in batteries become more accessible, 100+mpg in EV mode for your daily is going to be hard to beat.

Hyundai delivered a good product with this. We can't really tell how the American consumer will receive it but good product for sure. Best in class MPG, decent looks (better than RAV4), best infotainment (wireless AA,CP - though physical knobs would be nice), real AWD system, good cargo area. Basically it has it all. Not to forget the longest standard and drivetrain warranty in US. Question is: will the american consumer come out of the mental block of Japanese vehicles and give hyundai a chance. Palisade/Telluride have been doing well. So, let's see.

That would really depend on how open the window(s) were. Also, on some vehicles, the air flow/wind buffeting changes if the front and rear windows are all cracked open a bit.

We are getting (on order due end of July) the LTD which has the 10.2 digital instrument cluster. It is my understanding that when you order this cluster you do not get wireless Apple Play because of some software issues. My question is at some time in the future if they resolve the issue will there be an upgrade. If so how will Hyundai handle the upgrade as well as any other upgrade. will it involve going to the dealer or with all the tech in this car will you be able to get the upgrade on demand via blue link app.
