I drove both. A 2025 CRV Sport Touring and a 2025 Tucson (ICE) Limited. The Tucson was more comfortable and drove great. I am looking forward to driving the hybrid. Definitely buying the Tucson.
Title of this was "Is Tuscon better than Honda CRV". During your review, you stated no contrast between the Tuscon or CRV. As another reviewer said, this sounded like an infomercial for Hyundai. Nice video, but in the future please deliver what you state.
Certainly Honda and Toyota have been plagued with their fair share of quality issues as of late. Hyundai has had even more, but they all do.I actually like this little wagon on stilts. Great review by Lauren makes me want to go down to a Hyundai dealership and buy one. Sharp little car. Can't wait til Lauren reviews the 25' RAM 3.0T with 540-550 horse pressure though😊
I have a deposit on a Rav4 XSE hybrid, but this Tucson hybrid does look interesting. Hyundai is offering 0% financing with no payment due for 90 days. That's a very attractive offer. Some things to consider: the Rav4 hybrid gets better fuel economy than the Tucson. 41/38 vs 35/35. That can be significant if you do lots of city driving. The Tucson's engine uses GDI technology and has a turbocharger. These could increase maintenance cost in the future. However, Hyundai offers a 10 year/100,000 mile warranty, which is hard to beat. One last thing: I may have to wait 3 months before my Rav4 hybrid is ready. The 2025 Tucson is already on the dealership lots. Update...The Tucson hybrid does not have a spare tire. Since I plan on camping and driving on mountain roads this is a deal breaker for me.
We have a Tucson. If Hyundai is listening to us, can you get Hyundai to place the rear turn signal back up higher instead of on the lower fascia of the bumper? And softer seats like in the CR-V.
Exactly how close are you tailgating? "In the bumper where drivers can't see them" Do you realize Exactly how close you have to be to the car in front of you to NOT see the bumper? You'd have to be about four feet or less to not see the bumper... talk about riding someone's rear!?! Seriously... next time you drive look at the car in front and see how close you have to get to NOT see the bumper! You'd have to be the worst tailgater in the country to not see the bumper of the car in front of you. The bumper turn signal meets all safety standards of the NHTSA as well as global highway safety organizations. It's fine and safe by all standards... unless you're literally riding everyone's arse like you're stuck on them with glue.
@@wolfshanze5980 There are several scenarios where the near-ground mounted signal may not be visible to other drivers; vehicles slightly behind and to the side (other lane), tall vehicles (semis, tall trucks), or perhaps the Tucson is traveling in a heavy rainstorm or dense fog where visibility near the ground can be especially obscured. The low placement of the turn signals is misguided and potentially unsafe. Our NHTSA needs to do better and mandate higher indicator lights on vehicles.
@avaz5490 the NHTSA completely disagrees with you after extensive field testing... its why the Tucson is legal in all 50 states and globally. Drive safely and don't tailgate. Let me know when your opinion is accepted by the NHTSA.
hmm is me -or- does it sound like a lot of road noise coming thru, kinda over taking the Coach's voice. Is it the mic setup or the road noise. I'll def have to test drive to find out for sure. Even before the trail section.
This is new design is Disappointing!! What swayed me between Kia and all otger cars in that category was the unique dash/screen integration, the best I’ve seen in a modern car to date making it stand out from its competitors who have a clumsy screen awkwardly stuck on top of dash, which is also distracting! From a top class dash/screen integration to extremely basic… I’d hoped at the very least Hyundai would keep that unique style, and perhaps change the outer body, huge mistake as all its competitors are now in line with the same interior dash, actually I’ll go a step further, the new Tucson dash is a tray to store junk! It’s awful and for that reason I’m out! I’ll not be trading in my 2023 model for this new look next year
This is not auto journalism. Instead of a review I felt like I was watching a Hyundai media relations person marketing the vehicle. I actually like the vehicle less after your completely bias review. Everything is safety class leading and beautiful according to this “review” if I wanted this I would read a pamphlet or advertisement from Hyundai.
They are all the same. Black, white or grey crossover and none of them are reliable. They all have equal reliability. They are essentially the vehicles with different interiors and brands.
At .14 seconds you state there are new powertrains - there are not! Are you expecting us to answer your question in the title? Your the one who drove it!
Poorly done. Should have given pricing on ALL trim levels. Very misleading by saying starting at $28,800 . We all know these vehicles start getting to cost in upwards of $40.000
Here is a tip: Any company of any type thrives on competitors and in a rush to have better stats it will no doubt cause a failure to many of the features it is using as the competition. ex: VW trying too hard to chase honda and toyota in MPG resulted in a lawsuit by the feds in a lie they forgot to tell you about. Tucson is prob a good car but it wont last long and has serious failures resulting in zero longevity. How many Hundi Excells do you see on the road these days? I see a lot of mint honda civics as far back as the early 1980s and they still run like a quiet little mouse. I even had a honda hobbit I brought when I was 16 back in 1980 and sold it to a fella from Japan who opened up a honda plant in Ohio.....he informed me that he designed that motor when he was a new hire just out of college back then. He paid me the list price from 1980 and I just sold it in 2020. Ran like a champ and my daughters used it at each campus they attended and it was still kicking. lol

I find the 2025 CRV Sport Touring seats to be very hard. I much prefer the seats on the 2025 Tucson.
Very nice review - thank you.
Tucson anytime, any day of the year
I'm waiting for the Hybrid Limited. Should arrive in mid-November, from Korea. Has a head up display.
Any way to contact the factory and ask them to add and send over 40/20/40 seats to a US model?
The rear turn signal lights are far too low for safety considerations.
Great review as always. Why are the rear turn signals down in the bumper where other drivers can't see them?

The N-Line isn’t a performance model. It’s simply a sporty looking hybrid trim.
Finally they listened, lumbar on the passenger side. 👏
What are they getting for MPG in the Hybrid?
White leather interior? Why does Hyundai call it gray?
The technology issues prevent me from leasing one, welk, and my height.
No HUD for the 2025 Tucson?
What happened to comparing the Tucson Hybrid to the Honda CR-V? Did you run out of time?
What color did ya test out?
I have a ‘23 that came rated at 37 mpg combined. Now it’s 35 mpg with same exact powertrain? What happened to those 2 mpg?!?
@@ajlsrv5490 your heavy right foot
@@SinCityDarkKnight no. I’m talking about the EPA ratings for the vehicle.

I have a sensitive microphone - its pretty quiet in the cabin.
Seems like 0-60 in 10.6 seconds would be a permanent "baby mode"
I like the Tuscon better

honda crv is outdated and honda reliability is gone
Amen
It's because north american hondas are no longer built in japan. My last honda was 2015 CRZ (made in japan).

This is the fully-loaded trim of the Tucson. There's other less expensive trims of the Tucson.
