- After 1.5 years and 25,000km driven, the Hyundai Tucson bids goodbye to the evo India fleet. Having driven it back to our base in Pune after scaling Umling La, the Tucson has been a regular part of the fleet for us and Aatish takes it down our favourite road to tell you how it fares after such a long stint where it did numerous road trips to places close by and far off. He talks about what makes the Tucson a value-for-money SUV in its segment and why it is highly recommended if you're looking to buy one from that segment.

Have any more questions about the Tucson? Drop them in the comments below.
Which of the two variants Signature vs Platinum is better value for money?
Sold our GLC and bought a Tucson 2WD last year. Driven 20k km and it has been a fantastic experience so far. It's a compelling package for someone who wants "everything" i.e. power, family comfort, reasonable maintenance, etc. except for brand value.
Great to know about your experience. We hope you enjoy many more miles driving it.
@@evoIndia Thank you
What is the mileage for both diesel and petrol versions. I last checked on Internet petrol was around 8 kmpl and diesel around 11 kmpl. Is this what we should expect in long run in India ?
Hey, what's the music starting at 6:12 ? Thanks
Like the Tucson, Loved the Elantra. Dont know why people have this craze for SUVs when Sedans are PURE JOY
Overpriced.
We already know that. High seat position, high GC & practical space.
Xuv 700 is better in all aspect
@@himrao7366 Not all. The Tuscon is built better, has better interior quality and Hyundai service is a mostly a hit
@@venukrithish007 service cost of xuv 700 is very low compared to tuscon's and we can't doubt on build quality of xuv 700 .
This is an excellent in depth review of the car. You have compelled me to subscribe to your channel. Looking for more such videos❤
We're glad you liked the video. More such videos coming soon!
I own a Tucson hybrid here in Canada. Such a lovely vehicle to drive. Initially i was struggling to choose between Toyota RAV4 and Tucson as Rav4 is the king of the segment with superior efficiency. After the test driving these 2 i got sold for the ride quality of the hyundai. I wish there is a Diesel available here. Sadly no.
Tail lamp indicator lights are placed very low… in intense bumper to bumper traffics, very dangerous😢
Isn't there high tail lamp
Excellent longterm review, Aatish!!
Thanks!
Did you guys have any DPF issues especially at high altitudes? BS6 engines have been a nightmare on the hills.
20k km ran in 1 year and no DPF issues. Do note that the car is used frequently for long trips so, highway running is guaranteed.
Except for a DPF error light showing up, the car didn't give any other trouble. The light went off once we descended into lower altitude.
I have 3 questions:
1.) How are the brakes in emergency situation? Is the ABS as sensitive as other Hyundai/KIA cars? On my Verna, sometimes brakes totally give up due to sensitive ABS and I have to depress and press brake multiple times to start feeling substantial brakes. It is the single most critical issue which is keeping me from buying Tucson.
2.) How comfortable is car at 140-150 KMPH? In my Verna 2019 SX Petrol, I can cruise at 150 comfortably all day long. There are almost negligible lateral movements. How does the Tucson handle this in terms of lateral movements?
3.) Did you guys see any DPF issues at higher altitudes?
1.The brakes lack feel but stop well. ABS doesn't intrude too aggressively.
2. 140-150kmph is over the legal speed limit in India, but at a 120, the Tucson feels very composed and confident.
3. A DPF error light did show up however the car didn't give any other trouble and the light went off once we descended into lower altitude.
The real bigshot suggestion
Will be to bring
i20 N 1.5 turbo in india.
In 15lkh
It has .launch control
. Better transmission
. Insane exhaust
. Insane suspension
. Insane tyres
. Adas
These are very unique performance and experience upliftment features absent in indian hithatches
In 15lkh.
It would be a hot hatch hit
Can't be 15 lakhs it would be 20 lakhs above car
It has 1.6 turbo
Price please
I wish they launch the santa cruz in India
Tucson in US even gets Center diff lock.
When i can afford, i ll definitely pick like dis one over popular choices like fortuner etc. Like i bought my mojo xt 300 instead of REs. "MORE GO, NO SHOW"
Honestly why does an iphone user want a USB-C cable. It's not like the iphone can charge fast
Hey does anyone drive the petrol Tucson?hardly any reviews on the net.😢
Autocar india long term... with petrol
Hey, I do and have driven around 10,000 kms. Ride and comfort are best in class imo. Efficiency around 8 in peak Delhi traffic.
@@user-oz9wi7yw7f ...I was thinking of buying one......what about power? maintenance,spares_on highways does it give 10+..and what is the average on mountains?in your experience can the car be kept for 10 yrs?
How can you not talk about the mileage while doing a long term review. You've done 25k kms. Common Evo India
Nice hyundai
Quite disappointed with the rear BOSE speakers. Only rear ones btw. And yes, I have checked the "quiet mode" setting which is turned off. Have also adjusted the equalizer to give as much loudness as possible. But let's just say that a 3 lakh Suzuki car has better loudness (vocals, treble, and base) in the back than the 40 lakh Tucson.
Funnily enough, the front speakers are just AMAZING. The rear speakers are crap. As if they are entirely missing. There is no volume at all. If we increase the volume then the front passengers find it too loud and the rear pax find it okay.
Also, there is no BOSE badging for the rear speakers in the Tucson. But the Creta has them. And this is a worldwide Tucson issue, not just in India.
Have you checked the fader and balance settings as well
@@evoIndia I most definitely have. In fact I called the official service center people home and they agreed this is a Hyundai issue and there is nothing they can do about it!!
They said that the Santa-Fe didn't have it because it came with SONY speakers but I have no way to verify this.
Best diesel car below 45 lakh on road
DKY Why ratting is an issue in every other Car....now a days..🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️...
I drive a 22 Tucson and my wife recently bought a 24 harrier auto and we did a hyd -Jaipur drive in harrier. Realised the incremental experience that Tucson offers over harrier for 10 lacs is negligible. Infact harrier feels more robust.
Comparing the world's best selling global SUV to Tata Harrier doesn't do justice to either of the vehicles, tucson provides a different level of sophistication whereas harrier is more of a brute pseudo suv
Lmao Harrier is Using your Tucson's Transmision bruhh🤣🤣......In the Long Run that Tucson will last longer than that Harrier I bet you
It's always risky with a Tata man. You never know when a surprise pops. To be fair even Tuscon is going to be high maintenance but I don't think it'll leave you stranded.
The interior looks so nasty! Is it really hard to live with it?
I own one and the white upholstery is a pain to maintain. Will need detailed interior cleaning regularly.
poor mans lambo!!!
Looks funny 😂
I own the Tucson Signature Diesel AT (2WD) since 11 months now…
Done 18000km.
*** The only thing i’m not happy with the car is the HIGH BEAM headlight performance… its pathetic above 80kmph speed. ***
Also, India has almost no OEM accessories option for Tucson…
Hyundai Official MOBIS website has just added Tucson this month otherwise it was not even there in the option but still you can only get Cushions & Sunblind…
3D all weather Mats are not available for Tucson till today…
PS: Tucson has a complimentary Service & Maintenance for 3years or 30,000km so I’m only paying for Wheel Alignment/Balancing currently which is great.. 👍🏻
Compare it with alcazar 😅
bekar bad external design
I love it .. The design is awesome
Amazing review as always @evo india
I got my Tucson (diesel) in March '23 and I've driven it for 40,000 kms already. Covered ghat sections, expressways, city traffic and even a bit of farm use.
Not even a single issue. Beast of a car, beautiful refinement, good dynamics. The mileage is a bit on the lower side and as you mentioned it does tend to sit a bit with full occupancy but no complains.
Kabhi Roti ghat aaoge toh leke aaunga :)
Milege kitna de Rahi he ???
@@nikshaypatel8446 With my driving type, not more than 11 km/l.
But if you drive decently City: 9-11 km/l and Highway: 12-15 km/l
I feel ADAS feature is not very useful in city traffic....No wireless car play, No curtain for back seat , Light colour interior, low ground clearance are another negatives....rest is perfect
Which one is more fuel efficient, Hyundai Tucson Diesel or Toyota Innova Hycrose hybrid?
Diesels are efficient on highways. Hybrids in city traffic.
