If you are interested in this, the slightly older model of the Tucson, be aware there are some inaccuracies about the engines in this review in terms of the UK market. Matt refers to the petrol engine as being underpowered and you should just avoid it, but there are 2 petrol engines in the UK. Although the standard 1.6 petrol is under powered for the weight of the car, the 1.6 turbo petrol is powerful enough to make this reasonably quick (0-60 sub 9sec). The following older Tucson models had the 1.6 turbo petrol engine as an option: Sept15-Dec15 Premium Jun17-Aug18 Sport Feb18-Aug18 Go SE
Mat, we bought the Premium 2016 model late last year. Panoramic roof, LED lights and all the toys for boys you could ever need. We love the strong styling of it and it is the 2.0 ltr diesel, so has a bit of oomph when required and when using cruise control, I can get well over 40 mpg and that's even driving about the streets (like a Priest mind you). We love it and this is our 2nd Hyundai. The last one was the IX35 which was bullet proof too.
STOP slagging off Hyundai .the build quality is superb and the interior is not cheap or nasty i have been in many expensive cars with worse plastic .i have also owned various Hyundai's the last one for 9 years a Tucson old shape .anything made from 2008 onwards is well made and will last the 1.7 diesel is NOTa rough engine my wife has the 1.7 ix35 its quiet as any other diesels but being a Hyundai it packed with kit .the new 2017 Tucson is a smart car also loaded with kit go for the SE there are many useful extras and you won't pay silly money if you can live without a reversing camera and a touch screen sat nav /sound system then the SE will save you around £2k .a good sat nav will cost around £200 and the sound system in the rest of the Tuscon's is more than adequate .also ask about Hyundai's affinity scheme i could be wrong but i think Hyundai are the only company to offer this .if you have a blue badge or work for the police and other organisations that deal with Hyundai you qualify for a substantial discount i have just saved over 7k on a brand new Tucson using the scheme .dont buy a diesel if you only do short runs because unlike the older diesels that did not have a DPF the new diesels do have a DFP and if you don't do the miles you will clog it up and it is not covered on their warranty and it will costs you hundreds go for the 1.6 normally aspirated petrol if you are going to be using this car for short runs [like the 2 mile school run twice a day ]
That's not entirely true. While Hyundai has decent build quality it's nowhere near the top of it's class. You can feel the difference when opening or closing the car doors, the amount of hard plastics used in and around the interior. I drove an Audi before buying the Tucson premium 1.7 CRDI. While i love my Hyundai, i'll still acknowledge that there is a BIG difference in overall quality and finesse. There is no comparison because in prices they are 2 worlds apart. Which makes sense. The 1.7 CRDI is a little grumpy when you put your foot down. It's not the best engine on the market. Far from it, it lacks refinement. But it is a sturdy engine and outperforms the figures on the official paper. It's top speed is higher. It's around 190-195 and acceleration time from 0-100 Km/hr lies at about 10.7-10.8 seconds, depending on the road conditions and the driver of course. That IS IMPRESSIVE. It's also quick to pick up torque and speed even in low revs. It's a good engine yes, but quiet? Not entirely so. Overall it's a great family, small suv with great looks and good reliability so far. I'm a happy owner but won't go on to state facts that aren't true. Every car and brand has their up and downsides.
If you don't do more then 25.000 Km on a yearly basis i'd advise you to get the 1.6 Turbo. Not the naturally aspirated 1.6 as it seriously lacks in punch. You would still be better off getting the 1.7 diesel then. If you're thinking of towing then get the 2.0 Diesel as neither the 1.7 or 1.6 will really cut it for those purposes.
@@impoppy9145 I've sat in a Mercedes s class and the quality and the suspension are both the worst I've seen my 6 yr old golf is far more comfortable to drive and it's far more solid Mercedes have become a joke they use Renualt engines now on cheer models which shows how horrific they are
@G Hq Each to their own Mercedes are a poshed up shopping trolley!!! build quality is horrific. All show no brain car. Renualt engines on cheaper models says it all Mercedes unfortunately don't make them like they used to instead they are on low down Vauxahll like levels
@G Hq that costs money and like I said before build quality and comfort are bad anyway so it's pointless better of with bmw ford or Mazda kia or hayundai id rather have a skoda over a mark anyday
I like these long reviews that's show us a lot of detail about all the aspects of the car rather then just showing the basics, the style on this review was perfect. Please can you do some reviews for luxury cars such as the Mercedes S class, 6series, 7 series etc
Great to see Matt back!!! By the way, higher trim levels have softer materials for interior and the Limited model in the US has leather cover on top of the dash where Matt pointed out in the video. It is hard plastic in Euro spec, bad regional decision by Hyundai.
If looking at Tucson also consider Kia Sportage.. same chassis and engines but may be better overall package depending what you want.. the market is flooded with these cars so specify what you want or state you can go elsewhere.. ensure you get a good deal
Good review Mat! Expats in Gulf love to buy Carolla and Tucson because it's cheap , good space , low maintenance cost and good resale value. Of course Kuwaiti's love German and Italian brands! Samuel from Kuwait.
Great videos Matt, Great detailed content...Love the comparisons - One minor positive criticism - Can you slow down when speaking a little plz? I'm missing some details and have to re play to catch your very informative details. Love the accent !
When the Tucson ( 2010 ) and ( Kia Sportage ) 2011 came out, I said to myself they're going to be the cars of the future. Sedan like handling with the practicality of an SUV without sacrificing style and comfort.
Good call Matt about that car having four rings and charging £10k extra, only the car with four rings will still need another £10k to bring it up to the same spec as the Tuscon (Highlanders spec) or CX-5. autoexperttv does and interesting comparison with the CX-5 vs the Q3.
Mat, continue what you are doing. You are very good at this! I can also spot some differences - your style is now more fresh and entertaining! Keep up the good job! :-)
btw, sticking the parcel shelf at the edge of the load bay is a good thing when you need a load lip - like when parked on an incline with stuff in back that may fall out as you load/unload
I've seen more than 15 reviews on tucson and many American reviewers put this one with 1.6 turbo gasoline on the top choice so I guess it's a good little SUV.
I drove a hire car basic gdi 1.6 Tucson today and it averaged more than this diesel in stop and go M25! I do agree it doesn't suite the car though as you really have to rev it to get anything out of it with torque peaking at nearly 5000rpm.
Best car i have ever had. i have the small 1,6 litre engine. works absolutely fine ... whoever races with a suv ? for town and a bit of highway, absolutley perfect ..... comfy ride at around 80 miles and hour and lets face it , who drives 160 with the thing ? aside from that it has a "less bullshit" set .... not all the fancy whatever systems stuck to it. build quality is very good for the price range, of course comparing a bmw and a hyundai will see the differences, but then again , who cares ?
4 weel drive doesn't turn it into a land rover. You reviewers almost always forget, it helps on roads that doesn't get cleared of snow, we are not trying to climb mount everest, well 90% of us don't.
Nice review. But what is it with manual transmissions in these compact SUVs?? Having spent 15 years working on the road with MT I am SO done with them, no 'thrill' left at all. Give me a nice docile auto any day, even cvt, especially in traffic.
Good review, but I'd rather see a detailed review rather than a quick one. Don't put it on length as, as a non potential buyer, I watched every video Mat did without bothering about the video length at all. You'll get more subs and more importantly, more videos and it will be hard to search practicality videos corresponding to the desired car. Please consider including it in the video Carwow! You should also fix the off screen microphone! Other than that, great videos and I very much like the way you film them!
Thanks mate. The vids are broken down becuase, on the whole, the viewing stats show most people like a vid around 5-6 mins. So I need to separate out the more buying guide stuff for those really interested. And we have to link to our site becuase if someone is on our site watching a review we don't want them to be sent out of our site to RUclips. We may never see them again! But we want you tubers to be able to watch all our content that's why all the extra videos will be public on youtube too. Hope this makes sense.
Interesting how the interior trim and engines on offerings are almost totally to Australia. I've just settled on the Highlander (top) trim level here wiht the 1.6 and DCT.
To up the quality of your videos, could you add your feedback on the braking capability of each car as well as the throttle feel. Personally, I felt that the steering of the Tucson felt way too woolly. Thanks and well done otherwise.
I was considering buying it but I went gor the CX5 instead. Was not impressed with the interior and it also felled a bit cramped. Expensive, Cx5 has better performance and more extras.
i got a brand new 2019 model 1.6 gdi last week and its going back to the dealership today. if anyone gets one of these stay away from the 1.6 gdi because its rubbish, only had mine for 7 days. its advertised as doing 50 plus mpg which is a lot different to the 30mpg i was getting. i would have a another Tucson but deffo not a 1.6 gdi. if you get stuck behind a tractor make your self comfortable because your not getting past it,, just let everyone past. seriously underpowered.
Mat, sorry to say so, but i've never been your fan. Actually the carwow seems to be so refreshing, got my subscribe. keep it up! good job! ps. thanks for not keeping your voice down when you've tried to make a joke or whatever, it always made me mad. Greetings from PL.
Why do people say it's boring interior. It better than the new Peugeot 2008 because this has a light interior roof so don't look like a black hole and has a good shape where sat nav is. I saw a nice grey one with red leather seats i have my eye on.
It's becuase if someone is on our site watching a review we don't want them to be sent out of our site to RUclips. We may never see them again! But we want you tubers to be able to watch all our content that's why all the extra videos will be public on youtube too.
Thinking of a second hand SUV with this one of the options....See you got about 46mpg but I’ve seen some horrendously low figures by some owners in reviews.....Tucson owners how is your mpg
Mat you were always good. I used to watch car buyer because of you. But one request... Don't divide a car into these short minute size reviews of different feature... Its annoying
Interesting.. until yesterday I really liked Tucson... now compare it with the Kia Sportage from the previous video I kind of like the Kia's look a bit more, it is a bit muscular then Tucson. Any way the best in this class is still Nissan Qashqai!
Mr DL No way!!! Great looking car but VW is at the last place in any of my lists :) Especially the Tuguan - My friend's father had one... this car spent most of its time in VW service instead in his garage while he was driving his old Opel :) If I'm at the market fror small crossover I'll take Qashqai, although in my opinion it needs good 2.0 diesel and petrol engines and proper automatic instead CVT.
benzfen old Tiguan is very different to the new one. They almost share no common parts. I agree that the old one wasn't a good car, it was technologically outdated (based on old platforms, had old engines, was expensive to built so they had to cut down on quality to reduce the price). But the new one is a completely different story. It's an MQB car (and all MQB cars I've driven, and in fact I now own one, are brilliant), with latest technology and great engines. It's going to be way better than the rivals. Well, if not subjectively (you might not like the design and think that its unreliable), but definetely objectively (its going to have bigger boot, space for passengers, better fuel economy and so on).
Mr DL I don't have any problem with the design, the latest Passat front grill isn't very attractive but Golf is really good looking- especially with R-design pack, I've seen the new Tiguan too... great looking... BUT my problem is the reliability of this company. Even the totally in love Germans admit that VW has issues with reliability when get older... The latest generations might be seriously improved but this is just not my cup of tea :)
Matt! I don't know if Hyundai Creta is an SUV that's being selled in Europe, but if it is, could you review it? I'm looking for it, and I can't trust anyone but you

How about petrol?? Will it be wiser choice?? Thanks
Tony Beer If you bought a new car then you need to reconsider your financial strategy.
Damn it Mat, I watch this reviews almost only because of the 4k now. Keep it up!
Try it on your TV!
+MatWatsonCars my 4k monitor is 40 inches, my tv is 65 but is only 1080p :) the res really makes your videos shine
Is not cheap plastic. I’ve checked this car and the finish is very good quality better than some Mercedes finish
To be honest. You sound like someone poor with little to no experience in luxury cars... Cars like the Mercedes are miles ahead but they are expensive

Great to see you back Mat! Informative, down-to-earth reviews for the Everyday Typical Driver. Just what we were missing.
Thanks
Mat your new channel is awesome, I am hardly interested in Crossovers but still have really been enjoying these last couple of videos.
I like these long reviews that's show us a lot of detail about all the aspects of the car rather then just showing the basics, the style on this review was perfect. Please can you do some reviews for luxury cars such as the Mercedes S class, 6series, 7 series etc
Will do.
Thanks!, keep up the goodwork
Love the camera work! Excellent start there, Matt
You’re reviews are absolutely awesome
This color really brings out the best of it's awesome design. It's really hard deicding between this or a Sportage.
Firemarioflower Either or...both are very good.
Me too . I can't choose . I am thinking to get Tucson but I don't know .
What do you think ?
Great to see Matt back!!! By the way, higher trim levels have softer materials for interior and the Limited model in the US has leather cover on top of the dash where Matt pointed out in the video. It is hard plastic in Euro spec, bad regional decision by Hyundai.
Very refreshing style you've got Mat ... so much better than all other reviewers IMO. best of luck.
Keep up the brill job. best car reviewer on net by a long way .
Is Hyundai Tucson a good choice to buy as a used car
If looking at Tucson also consider Kia Sportage.. same chassis and engines but may be better overall package depending what you want.. the market is flooded with these cars so specify what you want or state you can go elsewhere.. ensure you get a good deal
I love the new camerawork and especially how it follows you in the video. Almost like JB in Spectre. :)
Good review Mat!

holy moly how'd that make through the quality check

Love the reviews in general. Though the Tucson has changed in what it offers now, any chance of an updated review on the car?
Amazing review. Really loved the ending with pros and cons! Subscribed...:-)
thanks

Electric boot opening gesture was awesome ;) lol
glad matt is back !!!!!!
Yay, been waiting for you for a long time.
Thanks for this, Wish you the best. LIKED !
Wow! This car looks amazing! They have in Singapore with automatic transmission.
Great video Mat! Great to finally see you back!!
Good to find you again Matt.
Congrats Mat!
Good call Matt about that car having four rings and charging £10k extra, only the car with four rings will still need another £10k to bring it up to the same spec as the Tuscon (Highlanders spec) or CX-5. autoexperttv does and interesting comparison with the CX-5 vs the Q3.
The man is back in business!!!
Great video matt, just a shame the first two videos are boring Korean budget SUV's :/
Mat, continue what you are doing. You are very good at this! I can also spot some differences - your style is now more fresh and entertaining! Keep up the good job! :-)
are you still active
Nice review! I speciallu like the text displayed at the end. Cheers
*specially
btw, sticking the parcel shelf at the edge of the load bay is a good thing when you need a load lip - like when parked on an incline with stuff in back that may fall out as you load/unload
Great new videos Matt. I have just got my new Tucson 1.7 crdi and it is definitely one of the best cars I have ever owned.
It's a really good car. Hope you bought it through carwow...
I didn't know it was available in NI
it seems like hyundai uk forgot to include led headlamp.. pity
Man, I'm not a big fan of Hyundai, but Tucson is looking so god damn good!
All the videos of carwow are awesome!
Thumbs up for Mat on Top Gear.
I've seen more than 15 reviews on tucson and many American reviewers put this one with 1.6 turbo gasoline on the top choice so I guess it's a good little SUV.
This video was recorded 5yrs ago yet I bought it a week ago and checking this till it’s delivered 🙃
Boring inside but love that exterior design.
hi mat, love how you do the reviews. Can you have a review for 2016 Mitsubishi Mirage? Thank you
i see all these videos because of Matt hhaha and i am a straight guy. he is a gem though.
Great review and good job carwow team
I drove a hire car basic gdi 1.6 Tucson today and it averaged more than this diesel in stop and go M25! I do agree it doesn't suite the car though as you really have to rev it to get anything out of it with torque peaking at nearly 5000rpm.
TBH, I'm watching these cos of Mat, cutest!
Looking an SUV soon just can't decide which leaning towards an ateca, tiguan or kuga but still unsure which is best option
What did you go for?
my mam has this car in black instead of blue and I love it!
Your videos aren't as intuitive as the BMW I drive system
+wastegimp oh I see what you did there lols
😂😂😂😂😂
great seeing you reviewing cars again, just been on carbuyer the bloke on there is horrible
Hope u subbed
Best car i have ever had. i have the small 1,6 litre engine. works absolutely fine ... whoever races with a suv ? for town and a bit of highway, absolutley perfect ..... comfy ride at around 80 miles and hour and lets face it , who drives 160 with the thing ? aside from that it has a "less bullshit" set .... not all the fancy whatever systems stuck to it. build quality is very good for the price range, of course comparing a bmw and a hyundai will see the differences, but then again , who cares ?
Do you still have it?
Amazing 4k video quality and great review Mat, it is like been there with you when watching it on my tab s 10.5 amoled tablet . Thx Mat☺

Great review as usual by Matt though it's nothing next to Santa Fe
To up the quality of your videos, could you add your feedback on the braking capability of each car as well as the throttle feel. Personally, I felt that the steering of the Tucson felt way too woolly. Thanks and well done otherwise.
Should I get Kia Sportage 2018 or Hyundai Tucson ?
Another great video. Cheers
all cars good when new .. we need reviews for cars after 5 years or even consumer of their cars
I was considering buying it but I went gor the CX5 instead. Was not impressed with the interior and it also felled a bit cramped. Expensive, Cx5 has better performance and more extras.
i got a brand new 2019 model 1.6 gdi last week and its going back to the dealership today. if anyone gets one of these stay away from the 1.6 gdi because its rubbish, only had mine for 7 days. its advertised as doing 50 plus mpg which is a lot different to the 30mpg i was getting. i would have a another Tucson but deffo not a 1.6 gdi. if you get stuck behind a tractor make your self comfortable because your not getting past it,, just let everyone past. seriously underpowered.

fav SUV...well done Hyundai !!!

Why do people say it's boring interior. It better than the new Peugeot 2008 because this has a light interior roof so don't look like a black hole and has a good shape where sat nav is. I saw a nice grey one with red leather seats i have my eye on.
mat watson what do you think will be the best car in terms of resell when it comes to this hyundai and its rivals??
I wish the links would go straight to the RUclips videos rather than to the website. It's just annoying to navigate.

i found the real car! small but looks big i loved it!
Mat waiting now for your 4k review of new tiguan 2016 😀
This guy can sell anything anytime 👌
keep up the great work !
You really caught me off guard with that perfect pronunciation
Thinking of a second hand SUV with this one of the options....See you got about 46mpg but I’ve seen some horrendously low figures by some owners in reviews.....Tucson owners how is your mpg
bad like 24 mpg and mines a flipping 2019 one
Mine does 30mpg in the city, about 45 -50 on A roads and motorways. But I am a terrible driver so I think you could improve on that!
OMG mat is here.
can u plz review MG GS. would like to know more about that suv. Is it worth buying?
This is a 2015 car and not the new 2018 face-lift version !!!
Please review that model soon D'oh !!!
Could you do the 2016 Mercedes c class coupe? I am really thinking of buying it but there aren't any good useful reviews on RUclips.
0:10 no cactus where harmed in the making of this video
Right Matt...
Right....????
Mat you were always good. I used to watch car buyer because of you. But one request... Don't divide a car into these short minute size reviews of different feature... Its annoying
Am I the only one watching to enjoy the rhyming British accent?? Oh my god ❤️
Amazing exterior
The AWD in this car makes it punchier off the line and more suitable for roadtrips. It can also tow more and corner better with all 4 wheels gripping.
Interesting.. until yesterday I really liked Tucson... now compare it with the Kia Sportage from the previous video I kind of like the Kia's look a bit more, it is a bit muscular then Tucson.
Any way the best in this class is still Nissan Qashqai!
Wait until the new Tiguan comes. It's going to be even better although more expensive :)
Mr DL No way!!! Great looking car but VW is at the last place in any of my lists :) Especially the Tuguan - My friend's father had one... this car spent most of its time in VW service instead in his garage while he was driving his old Opel :)
If I'm at the market fror small crossover I'll take Qashqai, although in my opinion it needs good 2.0 diesel and petrol engines and proper automatic instead CVT.
benzfen old Tiguan is very different to the new one. They almost share no common parts. I agree that the old one wasn't a good car, it was technologically outdated (based on old platforms, had old engines, was expensive to built so they had to cut down on quality to reduce the price).
But the new one is a completely different story. It's an MQB car (and all MQB cars I've driven, and in fact I now own one, are brilliant), with latest technology and great engines. It's going to be way better than the rivals. Well, if not subjectively (you might not like the design and think that its unreliable), but definetely objectively (its going to have bigger boot, space for passengers, better fuel economy and so on).
Mr DL I don't have any problem with the design, the latest Passat front grill isn't very attractive but Golf is really good looking- especially with R-design pack, I've seen the new Tiguan too... great looking...
BUT my problem is the reliability of this company. Even the totally in love Germans admit that VW has issues with reliability when get older...
The latest generations might be seriously improved but this is just not my cup of tea :)
benzfen well, fair enough :)
Matt! I don't know if Hyundai Creta is an SUV that's being selled in Europe, but if it is, could you review it? I'm looking for it, and I can't trust anyone but you
