Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 лип 2024
- Hyundai is quickly becoming the brand with hybrid and plug-in hybrid options for everything. With the new 2022 Hyundai Tucson, shoppers now have a solid alternative to the long running RAV4 hybrid, with a bit more room on the inside, plenty of cargo room, and a true mechanical all wheel drive system for the best winter traction available.

Alex, I enjoy your thorough reviews, very Informative and entertaining. It's nice to see youve added an additional presenter, he adds an extra level of information. One small observation Brian, spends alot of time looking at the camera, even when conversing directly with you. You're maintaining eye contact when speaking to him, I just find it a little distracting having him looking into the camera (the audience) instead of interacting with you when he's making his observations or points. Keep up the great work.
I totally enjoyed the way he interacted with the viewer. I want to see the micro expression so keep up the good work and I definetely enjoyed the team approach. Always love your videos
seems like a good hire with Brian, congrats! reminds me of the time Jack joined savagegeese, will be a good asset long term and excited to see his growth!
But Jack is Mark's half brother right? I always sort of assumed that since they look similar.
I love Brian. He shows such great detail!
I really like this new duo-review approach. Brian is quite informative and fits very natuarally in the review/dialogue.
Can't beat that Toyota for mpg's. But I'd gladly give up a little of that for the real awd and far superior interior of this Tucson! But Alex is right; so many good options in this class.
But is the tucson really in the compact crossover at this point. Seems to be more midsize now like a ford edge, subaru outback or nissan murrano
@@Hallowsaw No, it's definitely still in this class. The Santa fe is more mid sized.
@@Hallowsaw It's priced like one and isn't much bigger overall, so I'd say yes. The Tiguan is the questionable one.
@@johnholst but the trunk and legroom are huge
Hyundai sonata and the ioniq hybrids beat the camry and Prius mpg. Quit being a fanboy.
Great, detailed review! Really appreciate comparison part which includes RAV4 and CRV as I was thinking about these tucson”s competitors as well.
You guys nailed it on the seats. I sat in both the Santa Fe and the Tucson back to back, wow the Santa Fe seats were plush and comfy. That said, the firmer seats on the Tucson weren't a dealbreaker for me, ended up deciding the smaller, sportier, more tech packed car was better than a ~20% comfier seat.
Nice review. It was nice that Brian was describing how the interior of lower models looked like. I just hope we get photos of those models' interiors as an inset next time :)
The Kia Sportage and the Tucson are going to be very popular, especially the PHEV's.
Welcome, Brian! I like where the channel is going.
Tucson is overall the best value. I own the 2022 Hybrid Limited and I absolutely love it. Keep in mind, you get better tech, a more modern interior, a more unique futuristic exterior, and of course Hyundais amazing and generous 10 year warranty and 3 years of free maintenance
I love the trunk comfort scene. Great video as always, guys. :)
Agreed, instead of how many suitcases will fit they should change it to how many Alexs' will fit.
@@nix4644 Especially how many 130 pound Alexes.
Alex, I have always loved your sense of humor. However, having a comedic partner to play off of is even better! Great video.
Loved the review. Nice to see you making videos with your son Alex.
Are you sure that's his son? Alex is married to a man.
@@James-il3tq My guess is that he was trying to be funny. Looks like he missed the mark.
@@James-il3tq Could still.be his son. The guys next door have twins. However, I don't think Alex is old enough.
Amazing review as always. Looking forward for the PHEV review. Also please do compare the PHEVs from both Hyundai and Kia.
Only available im CA, CO, CT, ME, MA, MD, NJ, NY, OR, RI, & VT.
This guy is a natural. Congrats Alex on finding a good double.
Hyundai need to add Head up Display to the Tucson and yes thigh extender asap!
Good review👍🏽
I love the adaptive cruise in traffic especially stop and go. On the interstate sometimes it can be aggravating unless ur going 80+. Going thru Atlanta traffic is awesome.
Cute new format, now I would like to see Alex do the polka with an arm full of groceries!
YES. The video I have been waiting for
For safety, I do prefer separation between turn signals and headlights/rear lights. If they're too close together, they can get washed out which makes it harder to see if they're blinking, especially from farther away. Some cars get around this by turning off the headlight on the side the indicator is blinking on, but I don't like this because it reduces the illumination for the driver in the direction they're turning, which can be hazardous. As to the specific placement away from other lights, I've seen different implementations. I'm not a fan of the ones that have them low and recessed; that's not great for winter or muddy conditions because they're more likely to get obscured by snow and road grime.
@@RigiLiquid945 keep in mind….the headlight turning off when using the turn-signal is a feature for daytime when daytime running lights are on.
It was fun finding Alex in the boot when it opened
Excellent reviews.
You & Brian make a good team! 🙂
disappointed with noise isolation numbers. It has acoustic glass...RAV4 doesn't. All other comparisons list Tuscon as a significantly more quite on the road.
Any word on if the Palisade will be offered in a hybrid model for 2023 ?
Hey Alex, why 2022 Canadian Tucson Hybrid version did not comes with "ISG button" while Tucson Hybrid version from other countries have?
Regarding the rear turn signal being divorced from the brake lights, I hate it. I think it's too low, and looks off. I think it would've been much nicer and premium if Hyundai just made the LED brake lights also an LED turn signal as that would keep it looking cleaner.
Plus it you have a bike rack or a small utility trailer behind it, they are completely hidden.
Too low and dangerous! In medium to heavy traffic they cannot be seen unless directly behind the car...the must go!
It is going back to the style Lincoln used in the late 70s and early 80s with mounting the turn signals at the bottom of the car.
@@voided3 Especially considering how many people tow trailers with the lights wired backwards or not at all.
Nah, the turn signals are easier to see 99% of the time on the Tucson hybrid even though it goes against the norm. Trust me, I have one and I've driven behind it.
Alex, you made me laugh so hard lol nice review as always!😀👍
I like the lines, the new Elantra also. Tails lights very appealing, modern.
I like the taillights a lot. Much more interesting than average.
When does a compact suv stop being s compact suv??? These things are as big as “ midsize” suvs from 10-20 years ago
How does 2nd row/combined legroom compare with the 2022 Nissan Rogue - a direct competitor in the space?
@Alex on Autos I like the new approach. The cross talk and varying opinions enhance the review experience.
Which looks better between the Tucson and the Sportage?
Personal preference. The creased sides of recent Hyundais are a bit odd, but this looks better than the Elantra. The Sportage front end is kind of weird and the dash is even heavier with capacitance touch controls. Personally, I prefer the Tucson interior, and spend more time looking at the dash than the exterior. The Santa Fe is nicer and a bit less odd, and the nicer materials justify the price increase.
Hey Alex, can you please tell me if the 2022 Tucson hybrid ultimate comes with 6 speed torque converter or dual clutch transmission?
The rear is the same on the base trim, but the light bar does not light up. The rear lights are all incandescent.
He's going to be just awesome. Get review as always
Is the ground clearance closer to the impressive 8.3” said in the video or the pretty poor 7.1” shown in the graphic? Pretty big difference and Brian talks about it as a positive.
I’ve owned a 2018 sonata and a 2022 ioniq. I have loved both and will purchase a Hyundai next. I’m looking for a phev next before I move to all electric. Looking at the Santa Fe but possibly the Tucson.
What did physical buttons and knobs do to deserve the shaft? I do wonder if sun glare would become an issue with the gauge cluster not being covered.
I have yet to find a glare that I would find distracting on the gauge cluster. Its nice and bright even in direct sunlight too. My only concern is the long term lifespan of a display that bright and essentially static.
Again, watch your videos for the immersion. If you could please include a steering wheel camera view like you do in your normal videos when both of you are presenting, it would be much appreciated. Thank you.
Brian should be cool to watch. Perhaps one of the requirements for the job was similar looks? 🤔
this model dealer markup at current market is going crazy high and high and high! I can see the sky!!!
Welcome Brian!
Good review again but I do have a correction. Alex suggests that adaptive or smart cruise control is not standard on any trim, but Hyundai's website indicates smart cruise control with stop and go is standard on all trims and the limited trim has navigation based smart cruise control with curve control.
I dunno about the 2022, but it IS standard with the Tucson in all trims in 2023.
I love my 22 Tucson hybrid
I have a Rav 4 hybrid and I live in Alaska. The E AWD does great. It does better in the snow than my old 2001 Tahoe. I think you guys focus on the mechanical AWD too much.
The E-awd is more capable than this mechanical awd in the tucson,
I was curious about that comparison and just watched this video for the PHEV versions (it’s in… Slovakian I think? But has English subs): ua-cam.com/video/aDQeTWVThWI/v-deo.html
Their final conclusion is the RAV4 and Tucson are neck in neck, each with their own strong points. I will say though the RAV4 came on top with the Tucson doing worst on the most off-road focused test (somewhere around the 43:00 mark).
exactly. the rear motor in the EAWD Prime is VERY capable.
Great review and appreciate the additional humor on these recent reviews. I’d love to hear more about the PHEV systems from Kia/Hyundai. I realize they’re hard to come by I’m curious about the impact of the lack of heat pump on the electric engine vs. ICE engine functionality. Appreciate it!
Hi Alex/Brian, I drive a total of 225 miles round trip daily for work and I am spending so much on gasoline on my present vehicle. What would be best for my commute, a Plug-in Hybrid or a Hybrid? I have been considering getting the Hyundai Tucson. I would really appreciate your advice.
Knowing that there is a shortage of cars right now, should I try to extend my lease (if possible) rather than trying to enter into another lease on a new car now?
I'm training myself to use my blind spot cameras in my Tucson hybrid instead of turning my head as I can maintain uninterrupted forward vision , which is very useful in heavy traffic with multiple lanes.
Please, test the 2022 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid HTRAC system in “challenging conditions", in conflict,... Thank. Thank you much.
Idk comparing this to the rav 4 i would still pick this. I like that it is a traditional auto and awd systems. As a guy who works on their own car this is going to be fairly easy to work on
For an Asian korean design, it's a new age design that we love to have in year 2022 onwards, the challenge is does it have a better drive train and engine reliability against the same group of rivals like the Rav4,Cx-5 and Skoda Karoq.
Look up the latest JD power reliability study.
I ordered Tucson PHEV in Canada in November and it is not expected to be built in S. Korea until next October. I suspect it will likely be the end of the year before I get it.
Hang in there Bruce! We also have a one year wait them here in Korea.
17:52. Noise depends *GREATLY* on the road UPON which you are driving.
we have the non LED model in trinidad it does not have the lightbar
Base models in Canada do not have full width light bar in back.
Subaru has announced an upcoming Forester PHEV. With that, the new Tucson, and the new Sportage, the PHEV choices are getting more interesting.
Really with they'd stop using piano black interior finishes. Smudge and finger print magnet. When the sun hits my Sonata's piano black cup holder area wrong it can reflect right at my face. I'm going to cover it with vinyl wrap but that wouldn't be an option if the touch buttons are also piano black
I have been getting more pure electric range like 46mpge driving! Regen braking and coasting is key driving conservatively in EV mode and ECO
Oh I have the Tucson '22 phev limited
Is the catalytic-converter anti-theft armored?
Great question
I admit,was going to be a bit frustrated if Alex was not in the trunk when it opened.
Totally agree with your comments on Honda i-MMD hybrid system!
They are too exaggerating for claiming ‘212 hp’ while that poor engine makes only 143 hp! Easily out of breath under heavy loads…
what would make someone still get the santa fe?
I like your new look. And going to a "buddy" review is a smart move.
Base model Tucson’s lose the light bar across the tailgate, only light up elements are the edges.
Hi guys
Eish (South African expression of surprise), Alex and his boot (trunk) fetish.
Funny
😂
Maybe you can answer a question I have what do they mean by a spare tire kit instead of a spare
you basically get a fix-a-flat kit. A bottle of tire sealant and a air pump
Thanks for your video, I am having a real dilema on purchasing a 2023 Tuscon Hybrid are they having a lot of the same issues?
I own a 2023 Tucson Hybrid... I use it every day, it's a great SUV, I actually get excited every time I have to go somewhere, it's a great driving experience... I have no issues with mine... I also traded in my old 2018 Tucson for the new 2023 Hybrid... they both used the same 1.6L Turbo engine... I never had a problem with my 2018 1.6L Turbo, it was a great engine, glad to see it return in my 2023 Tucson Hybrid.
Does the engine turn off when stopped at a stop light...this feature drives me crazy...if std. equipment on this vehicle is there any way to turn this feature off...thanks
Yes and yes Don't know if it's standard on lower trims but definitely on the Limited. There is a button to turn it off however, you have to turn it off every time you start the vehicle. It's very frustrating. They actually have individual users settings where you can have your own preferred settings like, seats, climate, radio, etc but no option to turn off the auto stop feature automatically.
@@realdeal173 Okay..thanks for helping.
For the lower set turn signals, did you find them difficult to see when following with respect to the higher set signals?
I have a Tucson hybrid. I've driven behind it and overall it's turn signals are easier to see because it's split. The exception might be if you continually drive in muddy conditions or bumper to bumper traffic, maybe get another car for your peace of mind. Otherwise, this turn signal/taillight/side mirror set up is just as good and probably better in 99% of situations.
Well, if you can't see the rear wheels of the car in front of you, you are officially tail-gating!
Rear end looks good.
The PHEV is going to be a great alternative to the RAV 4 Prime. FINALLY... Only issue, I believe the Toyota planetary gear set is far superior and longer lasting to the transmission of the Hyundai.
Possibly. A planetary gearset is super simple and reliable. Time will tell whether there are transmission issues with this Hyundai unit. It's a fairly standard design.
Except it's only available in CA, CO, CT, ME, MA, MD, NJ, NY, OR, RI, & VT. Also, dealers don't take orders. They'll ask hyundai for one and they "might" get one spec'd how you want. Then you get to pay whatever price the dealer sets.
toyota has transmission problems. Check that out.
@@maga6319 I do not see any transmission issues with hybrid planetary gears only standard transmissions. Just like the Prius, it has a 5 out of 5 consumer reports perfect record from 2016 to 2020.
@@centauri0 CR is load of BS. Only a baby won't believe anything they say. Hyundai hybrid system with their transmission don't give any problems whatsoever.
Some people don’t have to park in multi level parking garages where people are doing 35 as your pulling out. Parking sensors should be standard.
Hopefully the Santa Fe truck also becomes a hybrid
*santa cruz
What's the difference between this and an older video you did of the 2022 Tucson Hybrid, in terms of the vehicle? Your scores are slightly different too.
My guess is the difference between a gas-only Tucson and a Hybrid Tucson... since they use completely different engines, they will feel very different and perform different on the road. The gas-only version of the Tucson has a rather anemic engine that does 0-60 in 9 seconds and is a real slug... so naturally, it will have a different conclusion in the end vs the much more powerful Hybrid Tucson.
Why did your rating change from 4 months ago when he reviewed the Tucson hybrid
Re ground clearance: Couldn't find it on Hyundai's website, but on a whole bunch of sites it claims 7.1'' for FWD versions and 8.3'' for AWD versions.
6:35. “Step up to SEL?” I thought that was the base model, and the “Limited” is the top end model. That seems very confusing, but after several phone calls, found out that “Limited” is named as fewer people might “step up.”
11:32. “Limited” is the highest trim available.
Personally I would take this over the rav4 hybrid and to an extent even the Lexus NX hybrid. It has way more space inside and a nicer interior better tech and better polish all around.
When you trading your camry?
@@kromahj ah nice try 😉
The Camry XSE v6 is one of the only Toyota branded vehicles that’s really impressed over the Korean options despite them being faster. The Toyota 3.5 is the smoothest engine in its class and a naturally aspirated v6 is a huge thing for me. But when it comes to the other size categories, I love the Korean options over the Toyotas. Also, if the Camry didn’t offer the 3.5L v6 this generation, I would get the Korean or Honda sedans if I was forced to go turbo.
My current picks when comparing Toyota vs the Koreans:
Camry v6 XSE > K5 GT, Sonata N line
Elantra and Forte > Corolla
Tuscon and Sportage > Rav4, NX and Venza
Sorento > Highlander
Telluride and Palisade > Grand Highlander
Santa Fe > Venza
Carnival > current 2021 sienna hybrid*
*the last gen sienna (2020 and older) ties with the current carnival
Seltos, Kona > Corolla Cross and UX
Mirai > Nexo
Ioniq5 ev6 > bz4x
What about Lexus vs Koreans:
G70 > IS350, but is500 > G70
G90 > LS500
GV70 > NX
Gv80 > RX
Ioniq5 GV60 EV6 > RZ450e
@@naveenthemachine I have the same car bro . I have the 2019 xse v6 two tone with red interior. Love that car so much. I think I will keep it for long
@@kromahj mines two tone too w red interior 😀. Mines a 2020 w silver exterior and fully loaded. I too will keep it for a long time. When I first saw this come out I immediately said “dream car 😍🤩😩”
I was prepared to give up things like cooled seats or android auto when I was shopping for my Camry. But when the 2020 model came out I wasn’t expecting to see cooled seats available or android auto, but they did add it and I was very happy which meant no compromise or sacrifices
@@naveenthemachine yea, I had the 14 v6 that I traded in for the 19.
I have seen reports on excessive oil usage, engine failure, transmission failure, etc. Does this still apply to the 2022 Tuscon Limited?
Those are features of the 2.4L non-aspirated Theta engine... it was used for a few years in multiple Hyundai vehicles... that's where the bad reputation comes from... it's not that "all Hyundais have these problems", its that "all Hyundais WITH THAT ONE SPECIFIC ENGINE" have those problems. No current Hyundai uses that engine, and that includes the 2022/2023 Tucson... they use completely different engine.
Gentlemen, nice review. What I really need to know about the larger Korean twins is how they perform in the mountains with that 1.6L turbo when the battery is kaput. If I take the Sante Fe cross country into the Colorado mountains or across PA to the Outer Banks will I be putting myself at risk because a big vehicle like that only has the little turbo?
Turbo is an advantage in mountains over non-turbo with similar HP.
@@chekvb yup - they generally make at or close to peak power all the way beyond 10k' altitude, where naturally aspirated motors may lose as much as 35% power
Any info on why the Tucson/Sportage don't offer an HUD option?
cuz they don't?
I love my Tucson hybrid sel
A neighbor has the Tucson Hybrid w/ white exterior and white/beige interior. The new Tucson is sharp. It grew in size as is the norm in auto industry. Next to my mid-size 2015 Camry the new Tucson is larger than I expected. For Hyundai to call it a "compact" suv is pushing it in my opinion. Overall I really like it. Hyundai/Kia/Genesis group has caught up. In many cases past the US/Japan/German auto manufacturers in design. Another good choice in the segment.
I liked the new kid, he is a good pick for your style.
whats the rated towing?
traditional automatic mean problems especially over 200k and if fluids are not changed. Good for more highway use less for stop and go and taxi.
100% agree with you Alex, I not a fan of split lights in the back. It cause great confusion sometimes.
Also not a fan of the split rear lights. I think it just looks stupid.
Disappointed that the hybrid has the 1.6l turbo which can't have a good long term durability. Caveat emptor.
It's great for repair shops.
Hyandai/Kia owners think their cars are ultra reliable with 100k warranty.. M
@@James-il3tq which it is reliable. Your opinions are flawed buddy.
I also don't like the low mounted turn signals for two reasons. One, it is harder for the second car back to see the turn signal and be warned of an upcoming turn. Two, if the bumper takes a low impact hit, the turn signals may not work. If it is knocked off you have no turn signals or it may still be attached by the wiring harness, but dragging behind you.
Turn signals on the bumper makes no sense.
1) turn singles need to be high so they can easily be seen by vehicles of all heights and vehicles that have limited downward visibility when immediately behind the vehicle in question.
2) bumpers are for bumping and breaking during collisions - why would you place lights there that would have to be replaced after a car clips the rear corner?
how many miles on a full tank?
The SEL Hybrid gets the 19 inch wheels
I own one.
:-)
When will you review Tucson PHEV?
2:26 off road vibe with 8.3 inches of ground clearance? But why does the chart say 7.1 inches? Which is it??? 😂
I noticed that too. Edmunds lists it as 8.3
Alex and his protégé.
CVT stands for "continuously variable transmission". Is Toyota's transmission varying continuously? If yes, it 's a CVT by definition.
Like Toyota and Lexus, the other companies could just offer both blind spot and radar cruise control.
Please test the PHEV version!
I really wish the diagonal style lines on the sides were parallel to each other. And that the rear turn signals were in the same county as the brake lights (higher please). But otherwise I really dig the styling.
It irks me that Hyundai didn't implement the "dual injector" solution to the Direct Injection carbon build-up issue with this new 1.6L, especially considering how intermittently it'll actually be running (it happens more at lower temps). It's been a constant maintenance issue for Hyundai/Kia for over a decade now. They _know_ that this is a problem; their G6DS Smartstream 3.5L V6 has both Direct Injection and Port Injection, similar to Toyota's clever solution to the problem. But _that_ engine is used in Genesis models. It just feels a bit scummy.
