  • For 2019 Hyundai gave their compact Tucson crossover a nose job, new transmissions and a new options and feature list. Unfortunately the changes aren't quite enough for the Tucson to stay competitive with the newest compact CUVs in America, or Hyundai's game changing Santa Fe.

    We have a 2019 Tucson SE which we purchased for $20K. Its my wife`s daily driver. It is a no fuss no thrills compact SUV. It does what its suppose to. I knew what I was buying and I don`t expect anything more than what it gives/offers. It offers what she needs for her daily driving and that`s it. we plan on keeping this SUV for minimum 6 years, so the 10yr warranty is great. I believe Hyundai makes good reliable inexpensiive cars, which is what we want.

    Your reviews are always top shelf Alex! I couldn’t agree more about the Sante Fe, especially now that their mpg ratings are so close together. I just can’t get past that boring interior design in the cabin of the Tucson either. Charcoal on charcoal, plastic everywhere... there’s just nothing inspiring about it. I understand cutting corners to reduce costs but at 25k and up it’s not like they’re giving these away for free. The Sante Fe’s cabin is light years ahead of the Tucson for almost the same money.

    I just purchased a 2019 AWD Tucson Value edition. I have had the Sante Fe & Elantra, both were 2017. They were leased. I had the Sante Fe Turbo AWD and I honestly didn't like the gas mileage on it. It mostly drove in the city and averaged a horrible 15 to 18 MPGs. The Elantra I had was super sweet, it was a Value edition. The MPGs on that one was amazing. On the highway I could easily get it up to 45 to 50 and in the city at 28 to 30. Although I did grow to love the gas mileage on it, I did not like the fact that it was a sedan, lagged power to move out of the way and the back door design was a bit annoying. It seemed that b/c the back doors were styled a bit longer/wider I would always accidentally hit myself or my child when I was loading things in & out. Also I did hit my head a few times on the back trunk when running for groceries. The trunk is a decent size for space and can carry a lot. Also the Elantra just didn't feel like it had the power it needed to really move out of the way on the highway. I always felt ok in it to make a quick commute on the highway but not super safe for a long road trip. I have had my Tucson for about a week now. And I will say that I do love it. I wasn't excited to lose the good MPGs I had on the Elantra but its not as bad as it might seem. I'm definitely averaging the 25+ in the highway and in the city 23+. I feel a lot safer in the Tucson. I also agree that it doesn't take off as fast as other vehicles when fully stopped but once you take off, there doesn't seem to be any issues or lag. Although I didn't get the bigger engine, it sure is an upgrade from the Elantra. The space in the back seats of the Tucson were a win for me b/c I have a very tall 10 yr old. The cargo space of the Tucson is plenty for me on a daily commute. I also leased the 2020 Kona SEL edition for my oldest daughter, she was in a 2016 Veloster. She is loving this little thing. Great gas mileage and a ton of safety features that she didn't have in the Veloster. Also our insurance premiums went down by $250.00+ b/c of the safety features on these vehicles. I have to say, I feel a whole lot better that she isn't so low to the ground anymore. And yes, the interior of these Hyundai vehicles do seem to have a lot of plastic in places, so most people don't like that. I don't mind b/c I have dogs. And for me, its a win b/c its easier to wipe down.

  • @tjs114
    @tjs114 5 лет назад +18

    No, you have a regular automatic now instead of DCT because of the sheer volume of customer complaints Hyundai got regarding the DCT and they don't want to cover the repair costs for the 10 year warranty. DCTs are not a good choice for anyone that suffers through stop and go traffic most commuters go through.
    But yes, the 8speed is available to Hyundai and they should have dropped it in the Tucson.

    • @stephenhendricks103
      @stephenhendricks103 5 лет назад

      I'd disagree to some extent. I can't speak to the exact behavior of Hyundai/KIA DCT's but I'm on my second GTI with VW's excellent DSG, their label for a DCT. I bought my first GTI with a DSG after decades of having at least one manual transmission vehicle in my garage. And I did so in part because of daily commutes in horrendous freeway traffic that varied from 0 to 30 mph around Seattle. I'd never go back to a non-automated MT compared to the "automated manual" of the GTI. It enables me to treat the transmission of a manual when I please (about 75% of my driving) and to turn over the shifting duties to the DSG when it's a nuisance. I own both the GTI and a KIA with a traditional automatic and I find virtually no disadvantage in the GTI's behavior in stop 'n go traffic.
      I think the issue you cite comes from those who have never driven a manual transmission vehicle and are not accustomed to feeling/hearing gear changes from a conventional torque converter AT. AT drivers can sit at a stop on an incline without touching the brake pedal. A traditional MT, of course, requires that a driver depress the clutch or shift to neutral and then to depress the brake pedal. When coming to a stop the DCT (even in manual mode) automatically downshifts to second and then to first gear. It then requires simply placing a foot on the brake to hold the car in place.
      It's noteworthy that DCT transmissions are much more popular in Europe than the US. I think that stems from the fact that a much, much larger proportion of European drivers are familiar with and drive manual transmission vehicles and compare DCT's to that driving experience.

      I am in the UK and would prefer a torque converter auto over a DCT. I have been looking at a Tuscon to tow a car trailer and can only find a torque converter auto up until about 2017 and only in the 2 litre diesel . Problems have been reported when towing with a DCT.
      VW dry DSG boxes have given a lot of trouble. Ford also have had problems and have changed back to a traditional TC box after many problems with the powershift box. Fuel both gas/petrol and diesel are much more expensive in the UK and in Europe in general, presently just over $6.00 per US gallon. This may account for the manufactures profusion of DCT transmissions here.
      The Tuscon we get, from memory is made in the Check Republic.

    • @rabbitruck
      @rabbitruck 5 лет назад

      Somewhat related: my buddy had a Jetta with a DCT, and the transmission self destructed just slightly out of warranty. The repair estimate was staggering. VW, in typical fashion, told him to pound sand. He was a long time VW owner...the key word there is "was". You couldn't pay him to own another one.
      DCTs are one of those things that are great in theory but not something you want to own on your own dime long term. I don't care about smoothness as much, but I'd prefer not to roll the dice to such an extent regarding long term durability.

      The (D)DCT doesn't play well in larger vehicles, hence it was removed from the Tucson.The (D)DCT works best in subcompact crossovers, and cars that are compact / smaller. I expect the 1.6t, 2.5, 2.5t engines to be in the next generation of the Tucson (base on the new Sonata platform).
      2.5 N/A engine for the SE, SEL trims.
      1.6t engine for the Sport (?), Limited trims.
      2.5t engine (275hp) for the N-Line trim
      2.5t engine (341hp) for the N trim.

Hyundai will have to discount the Tucson significantly more than Santa Fe to incent buyers to get a Tucson, and maybe they are now, I am not current.
      Not a scientific analysis, but the dealer I got my Santa Fe from currently has 15 Santa Fe's in stock ( only 3 are 2019), while they have 70 2019 Tucson's in stock, and this kind of ratio has been that way for months, so seems others are reaching the same conclusion as Alex (and I) did. They have been getting Santa Fe's during this period.

      Kevin Gibb Discounts on all Hyundai products is very heavy. When it’s all said and done, you can easily get a Tucson SE for $23k out the door.
      When it comes to dealer stock, you’re making wrong assumptions, like that they order equal amounts of both. Quite the opposite. The more a car moves, the more of it will be ordered and stocked. More expensive cars that don’t sell as often will be stocked a lot less. Dealers will share inventory on those or tell the customer to order from the factory. Also, don’t forget that the Santa Fe having an all-new model increases the new model’s sales immediately, and kills the sales of the previous edition. The point is, stick volume is not indicative of sales volume and dealers don’t discount below invoice. Apart from that, you’ll see pretty similar sales... about 15% off MSRP on average, for Hyundai/Kia.

(The KIA is one inch longer.) Identical interior dimensions in terms of passenger space in the first and second rows and identical overall cargo space. Same transmission. Same AWD system. Same infotainment system. Same switch gear in the same locations as the Santa Fe's. Nearly identical curb weights.
    The major differences between the Santa Fe and the Sorento is the availability of a naturally aspirated V6 and a surprisingly accommodating third row of seating with more legroom than a Mazda CX-9 in the KIA. The top trim Sorento also offers somewhat higher grade interior appointments such as softer leather upholstery compared to the Santa Fe.
    The more recently updated Hyundai counters with a digital display and HUD in the "Ultimate" trim, a couple of valuable safety features (e.g. alert if children or pets are left in a closed car and a driver side door lockout if oncoming traffic is detected) and a lower MSRP for the top trim. In my experience, though, the KIA offers a considerably greater discount from a dealer for the top trim SX-L model.
    The Sorento is due for a significant update in 2020 and perhaps that's why it's seldom mentioned in recent comparisons despite having been a top pick among smaller midsize crossovers a year or two ago. But among "tweener" vehicles like the Santa Fe, Ford Edge, Honda Passport, Chevy Blazer, Subaru Outback, Nissan Murano, and Jeep Grand Cherokee it remains a vehicle worth consideration.

    Its a compact SUV so why the focus and discussion on power and acceleration. That is NOT the primary focus of buyers of this type of vehicle. Manufacturers obviously know that so why don't you? I am looking for a smooth comfortable and practical vehicle that gets good gas mileage. Turbos and dual clutch transmissions are just the thing for a Porsche. We are not in that market. And why not pay more attention to reliability? There are problems with longevity on some turbos as well as automatic transmissions that have 8 or 9 speeds. That information is readily available on the internet for those willing to take a serious look. Please consider focusing on the primary points that buyers of this type of vehicle are looking for. It is not about how fast it will accelerate.

    • @BIgDubyaGanoosh

    There is no proof that all of it's numerous problems are now solved. It's a bigger reliability risk than even the oil-dilution issues in the CR-V engine.
