For everyone wondering about Hyundai durability. I bought a 2013 fully loaded Elantra in 2014...200k miles, and now my son is driving it. It won't die! We were so impressed that we bought my wife a 2024 Palisade...best vehicle I have ever owned. On a side note...be nicer to your cameraman, or you're gonna get locked in. 😅

I have a Tucson PHEV ultimate. Fully loaded tech, super quiet while driving, and the best part I average over 2000 kms per tank of gas. I can go months without filling it

Japanese car fanboys always say that the resale value is much better, and rightfully so since they paid more in the first place, and I think car technology is leveling off. Tucson is a better choice.

The value percentage drops at an incredible speed with any Korean cars (I had several hyundai and kia). If I had to buy a 5 years old car to keep it for 5 more years, it would be a mistake not to go with a Japanese car. The reliability is just better. If I want a car filled up with technology, bad materials, not particularly reliable engines, and not timeproof design, then hyundai is the option to go if I want to save some money. If I want a more reliable car, better materials, more driving feelings, better resale value, lower maintenance cost, and more practical car, not considering Honda is a mistake

Thanks Sam for the review. Great job! Which one to choose for better driving experience, which one is better driver’s car? And of course since these are family cars which one will be better for long term ownership, more reliable, and efficient maintenance? Thank you!

@@KO-sx9uyI would be more worried on why you would pick a subaru over a hyundai. Kia & Hyundai started to fix their reputation in 2011. They got one of the main guys from Audi at that time and ever since then, they have completely turned around to be a great car manufacturer especially when you factor in price. Kia also has really good safety ratings on their cars. They used to have engine/transmission issues over the years but that’s all being fixed as time as passed. I will admit they steal/mimic designs from bmw, audi, mercedes, porsche,etc but in a good way to make the car feel even more premium for what you pay. Quality isn’t exactly like theirs but you would be surprised on some of the build quality on certain models. Lastly I’ll end off with recommending the Kia Sportage HEV. My mom has one and wow fully loaded with amazing gas mileage and decent space for $40k

Well, even Honda’s reliability in recent model years is now under question. I feel bad for people that pay more for so much less of a vehicle. A friend of mine bought a new CR-V ICE this past July, right when I got my ICE Tucson. One night out, we compared vehicles and it was embarrassing. I literally felt bad for him and rather guilty because everything about my vehicle was infinitely better inside and out. Obviously he didn’t shop around and looked rather depressed that he made such a big purchase when he could have gotten so much more. I feel very fortunate to have my Tucson and to have received a great deal on it.

I recently got a 2024 Tucson Hybrid N-Line after comparing with the CRV Hybrid. Still kind of nervous about the long-term ownership, I’ve been a Toyota guy for past 25 years….not getting anywhere near the promised MPG, more like 31-32.5, based on driving the hilly San Diego terrain, and even doing more city driving than I would to try and get better efficiency…I guess you get over 35 if you only drive on totally flat terrain, or 38 if your commute is downhill both ways??? C’mon Hyundai…they’ve been sued before over dishonest MPG advertising. Other than that I do enjoy the vehicle. The CR-V seemed a little more sluggish and I just can’t commit to CVTs.

Yeah, that sounds about right. They base their MPG on driving in optimal conditions, temperatures, and driving like a grandmother on the highway. Either way, it’s still better than the ICE MPG so that’s nice. And the Tucson is the best vehicle in its class otherwise. Along with the Sportage. All the rest look and feel like scrap metal and plastic from Japan.

With all the tech inside of hyundai's vehicles drive up its worth and value, so i can totally back you on this because its not not cheap to recalibrate the safety features back to their original working order and the parts won't be cheap.
