The new Tucson and Santa Fe are so nice now... Hyundai has come a long way

We bought a Tucson Blue(base, SE or eco trim) and I am very impressed. At the base level you still get the best or the "needed" features like heated seats, the driver aides and assistants, and Android Auto/Apple Carplay. You also get better mileage on the Blue trim because of the lack of extra components to power. When driven carefully we get 42 mpg on road trips across the mid-west(flatlands.) The turbo-hybrid powertrain is excellent at passing at highway speeds and zippy around town, in sport mode. I hate recommending this vehicle so much because prices have already been driven up by demand and I would consider buying another one. The dream for me would be if they could put the hybrid powertrain in the Santa Cruz. "TAKE MY MONEY HYUNDIA!"

Tuscon uses 6-speed automatic transmission so it gains speed w/o the groaning engine sound associated with CVT like the Rav4 or CR-V.

Hi guys. So I was interested on getting a 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy then I started watching KZread reviewers like this one so I was intrigued when they mentioned 37-38MPG for 2022 Hyundai Tucson Limited Hybrid. However, I started digging deep because I couldn’t make up my mine on a Calligraphy or Tucson Hybrid. So I started hitting the forums and I have read soooo many comments of ppl getting less then 30MPG on the Tucson Hybrid but also forums of a lot of ppl mentioning how they are having jerky/stuttering driving experiences after purchasing the Tucson. After reading the forums and the nightmare that ppl are going through with the 2022 Tucson, I think I am now second guessing on getting a Tucson and avoiding going through the headache of transmission issues or jerky transmission experiences and just getting calligraphy.

You’re getting the Tucson Hybrid and Tucson non-hybrid all mixed up. The title is for the Hybrid, which Hyundai considers a separate model, and displays it as such on their website. Then your trims and starting prices are a jumble of hybrid and non-hybrid info, which had caused you to make a bunch of errors. Use the KISS (keep it simple, stupid) approach. The Tucson Hybrid comes in 3 trims: Blue - $29,050 38mpg SEL Convenience - $31,650 37mpg Limited - $37,350 37mpg The dynamic cruise control is standard on all three trims, as is AWD. The Tucson (non-hybrid) has three trims as well: SE - $24,950 29mpg FWD, 26mpg AWD SEL - $26,500 same as above Limited - $34,790 same as above That means the price of a base hybrid is about $4,500 more than a base non-hybrid. Smart Cruise Control is Navigation-based (whatever that means), Highway Driving Assist, Blind Spot View Monitor, Surround View Monitor, Parking Assistant, come only on the Limited. Forward Collision Avoidance with Cyclist recognition, Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance are not available on the SE trim. So if you’re thinking of the SE non-hybrid trim, be aware that it comes with very few active safety features. All you get is Forward Collision Assist with pedestrian detection (not cyclist), Lane Keeping Assist, and Lane Following Assist.

Nice review. For what it's worth, a volume knob is not needed, especially for the driver. The volume controls on the steering wheel are much safer to use when driving the car. It helps keep your eyes on the road. A split second of taking your eyes off the road to fidget with a knob can make all the difference. The passenger might get a little annoyed with the capacitive touch volume control, but at least their eyes do not need to be on the road while adjusting it.

@@afcgeo882 : Okay, this is crazy. I’m not talking numbers here. Just because Rav 4 came earlier than CR-V and Tucson doesn’t imply it’s the original softroader because it was limited to a very restricted market, primarily North America. If that’s how you define the state of originality then, perhaps, there could be softroaders launched much before Rav 4 in other restricted market as well. What do you know about such markets? Sure, the video is in North America and maybe about North American models. But my comment obviously was not targeted at North American market. Take a look back at my comment again where I clearly pointed CR-V and Tucson to be the original softroader. It might not be true in context with N. American market given RAV4 was launched before both the models but it’s true for global market where CR-V and Tucson are much recognised brand over RAV4.

@@LuvvSURYA Literally the meaning of the word “original”. This is facts, not your feels. Literally NONE of these were in restricted markets. ALL of them were launched around the world. Do you have basic comprehension issues? The Rav4 and CRV were out a FULL DECADE, all around the world, BEFORE the Tucson. Full stop. If anything, the Kia Sportage/Mazda Bongo were original, having come out in 1995, also all around the world.
