Out of many mid sized SUVs I checked, the Tucson was the best and most appealing throughout. The boot space is great as well. Fantastic vehicle for the price. The previous version prior to the update has a nicer grill.
I was looking at Karoq and Tucson. I chose Tucson as I found the driving position better, it was higher and the car was just a little better looking with a little more character, I pick it up on Thuraday. But the Karoq did look very solid.

Friends mumgot this model yesterday on motability 1.6 petrol auto white It drives very nice,I likeblack wheels spoiler mirrors and interior comfortable Rebecca very nice also!!
The 3008 doesn't have a convoluted menu system for the air conditioning... you press the second piano key from the left to go to the menu. This is no more of an issue than using air con in the XC40. Also, whilst the controls are supposedly "logically laid out", don't you think there are too many buttons on the steering wheel? I wish Hyundai and Kia would do something about their dark grey interiors...
What Car? : I've tried the Skoda Karoq....and with its 4,37 meters length is definitely notably less comfortable than the Tucsons 4,49 metters. The road dampening is also much better on the Tucsons platform.
Kia/Hyundai buyers, do not buy a vehicle with a Theta family engine, you could get lucky, or you could get one that catches fire, self destructs or gobbles oil. I have a 17' Sportage with 64000 miles, it now uses 1/2 qt. of oil per 1000 miles. I am stuck with adding oil until it or if it self destructs. The Theta family is 2.0L and 2.4L up to 2020. I have 44000 on a 16' Turbo Tucson and it doesn't use oil...yet.
I have the pre-facelift version with the entry level engine (1.6 GDi). Yea, it's slow, but I mosty drive in city, so that doesn't bother me at all. The turbo one is snappy, but has horrible fuel economy in-city. And if you drive a lot outside the city, then the diesel makes more sense anyway.
By an estate car - more space, lower cost and better economy. Of course with the centre of gravity high compared with an estate it doesn't handle nearly as nice as an estate.
I wish these journalists would stop comparing everything to VW Audi skoda. The German stuff is over rated, expensive crap! Just wait till they get to a few years old and all the numerous expensive common faults start appearing. Would rather that Hyundai or something Japanese any day.
I'm confused. If the Hyundai Tucson's Nissan rival is the Qashqai, where does that leave the Nissan X-Trail? Or Skoda's Kodiak for that matter since you claim it this Hyundai competes with the Karoq!
Get a Skoda or a Seat, forget the Nissan (too unreliable anyway, especially their auto gearboxes and electronics) it seems Hyundai has been beaten in nearly every aspect here by the German based cars
Yep, it's the same with Ford's St-Line. I got myself a 2017 Fiesta ST200(Overboost215hp, 1175kg, proper suspension, transmission, recaros, real drivers car...). Everytime I get to a parking lot people keep asking: Ah, is this an St-line? My sister got the same, is it the 75hp? That's sad and funny in one way...
you are a pro and actually do a housewife perspective review, as there is more to all cars shown. Let's start with the handbook, how useful is it really? What does it state? Does it say anything about service intervals, the fluid levels, what type of fluids, tyre pressures - why is that important to check them. Well, in the UK you might find easy a mechanic around the next corner or have roadside assistance quite easy on hand - but let's say you are in the Australian outback, 400 km between drinks and the sun is baking you, it has 44 centigrade. Checking all that before one rolls out could be survive this drive or come home in a box - if you will be found at all. So is there a good spare tyre, a patch kit, are there spare light bulbs, anything so one can check the tire pressure with, where are the fuses and are there any spares - how about a first aid kit - any drinking bottles(filled up) - can anyone change a tyre with those tools supplied? I tell you about a Renault Scenic dCi 2008. I borrowed a box trailer, hooked it up and that one had an electrical problem - in the middle of nowhere - lights out! OK, no big deal, hand book out - where are the fuses - yeah it states they are at the far back in the glove box in a flip down opening / found it! Well, they fuses are marked with a glued in paper sticker, spares are there - but hey, there are no blown out fuses, so why do I have no electric power? And now I tell you the true odyssey. That sticker next to the fuses was bogas as it did not belong in the Scenic but belonged to a Megane. There was no mentioning at all in this handbook about those other fuses! Under the passenger seat is a drawer and this drawer has to be taken out and one has to work out the locking mechanism first to do so to get to some - not all of them, just five fuses are beneath there. Yeah, I got indoor lights now - but nothing else does work. Someone came finally along, knowing Renaults and pointed out to me where those important fuses and relays are, about ~ 15 relays and ~ 50 or more fuses of them are really hiding! One has to disconnect and take out the battery ( meaning one has to know and clocks in all the codes again), strip down some wire links / remove three plastic covers and there is a monster of a print slotted in below with two bundles of wires to be disconnected and taken out and only there on top are the relays but on the underneath side, yes on the other side of that print are all those fuses facing downwards. Again nothing there at all to tell one what all the fuses are really protect...and now with the battery out and some wires stripped, how does one know by changing all the fuses if the electrical problem has been solved successfully? The design of those Renault fuses are something else, one needed an ohmmeter to test them to know if they are still good or blown. Otherwise when working a very good economical car! So please check also this on all cars you do a review on as this what Renault did here on this 2008 Scenic is down right criminal.
"The petrol version makes more sense". Why? I'm sorry but diesel is the king. And environmental friendly (see the co2 emissions plus the less consumption).
And while it's no Range Rover.... [what? Since when was a Range Rover anything but a snob brand. It's okay for up to three years. ] And I get that no North Asian automobile will ever be 'cool' but (for the average person in the Anglosphere), so what..... And as for a Skoda & Volvo, I rest my case [& Warranty claim]. Hyundai/Kia vehicles trump all of these for longevity in the Outback. [ps I'm Anglo Aussie 170 years.]
Hmmm so this car is left lacking in nearly every way compared to Skoda and Seat including cost space and quality, even the drive. Thank God then, that Rebecca did this review
Why u say" cop holders" is bottle holders. But don't drink too much water! Is danger, it has become like fashion drink water, is commercial interests many say, but is danger drink much, only Google to find out why? 👍😃🤔🤔
Carrying around the name of a United States city on the back of my car has never appealed to me, particularly when it's a car that, after a couple of years, will make a 20 year old Toyota seem like a new car by comparison.
Terrible sad interiors with black leather seat, only black, black. Other I want to say, is time that we can use our voice on multimedia when we shall use Maps, bluetooth, or go too You Tube. Is dangerous when driving sitting and hit the right button on touch screen, my self hate to do it. So the car producer have too make a voice control, I know some has it, like Mercedes on some models. About Tucson, is a ugly car, he has been to big, too clumsy, not a up dated exterior.

Joseph J have you checked out a karoq?
I was looking at Karoq and Tucson. I chose Tucson as I found the driving position better, it was higher and the car was just a little better looking with a little more character, I pick it up on Thuraday. But the Karoq did look very solid.

Absolutely beautiful.. and I am not talking about the car .
Glad you are back yeah☺️👍
Friends mumgot this model yesterday on motability 1.6 petrol auto white
It drives very nice,I likeblack wheels spoiler mirrors and interior comfortable
Rebecca very nice also!!
Can you sleep in a Tucson? Is it long enough? Looking for something we can sleep in occasionally while on summer vacations.
The previous generation, 2015 or something when they reborn the name, was better looking in my eyes.
GOD can you stop mentioning the Skoda for ONE SECOND?
Great Video Review. I like the Red Paint Colour
I have a micron grey nline and for me my ones better

So this is the same car as last year?

Fully covered Rebecca. Cheers!
Wow nice car,Thanks for sharing!!!
Coreect me but isn't the Qashqai a class below the Tucson?
No they both come with different spec levels higher spec higher price also different engines and size of engine.
Good review
Hi is it possible to replace the alloys off the n line tucson with the alloys from the i30 n sport ?
Kia/Hyundai buyers, do not buy a vehicle with a Theta family engine, you could get lucky, or you could get one that catches fire, self destructs or gobbles oil. I have a 17' Sportage with 64000 miles, it now uses 1/2 qt. of oil per 1000 miles. I am stuck with adding oil until it or if it self destructs. The Theta family is 2.0L and 2.4L up to 2020.

Lol, why would you buy an Suv if you drive mostly in city.
As long as it can handle deepwater fine enough. But if it can't it's not a proper 4X4.
Look closely it's not a 4x4, its front-wheel drive.
Nice voice.

comparing a super reliable car such as the tucson with the crappiest car ever existed is like comparing mia malkova with liza minelli.
