Ed buddy, Because your review for 2023 was not available until a day ago, I saw all Canadian reviews on Tucson Hybrid Luxury trim. I must admit that your review is the only one that’s truly helpful to have in depth understanding of the features. Your review is also like a user manual. I will save your video to refer how to use my hybrid luxury 2023 thats coming next month. A huge shout out to you for reviewing and sharing your expertise. Please keep up the awesome work! Cheers!
Your review videos are awesome, Ed. Glad I stumbled on your channel while searching for 2023 Hyundai Tucson (the highest spec "Highlander" 1.6T DCT trim here in Australia) Your fan and subscriber from Sydney, Australia
Hi Ed..... Well last Tuesday, May 30th from Wyoming, USA ...we finally purchased our black 2023 Tucson Sel Hybrid! We absolutely Love it! Also, your fantastic video "Here's how I prep a new Hyundai Tucson Hybrid was fantastic.... We actuallly had to go back to those settings several times. Keep sharing your expertise and great teaching technique...
Got mine last week here in the US. 2023 hybrid limited did not lose ventilating front seats and wireless charging. Love this car! Switched from Honda CRV. Get them while you can!
Thank you for introducing this vehicle. We will have this car made locally soon in Taiwan. Unfortunately there’s no AWD function yet, hope it could be better and better in the future!
Hi Ed, I found your review truly helpful to have in depth understanding of the features. I just got my hybrid luxury 2023 last month and I still learnig about all the tecnology A huge shout out to you for reviewing and sharing your expertise. Please keep up the awesome work! Cheers!
Hey Ed, I've watched many different videos on the Tucson, but yours are the best. Lots of others have too much fluff. You get down to the gritty details and explain everything very well! I'm in Canada and have a deposit put on a 2024 Tucson PHEV Ultimate. Hoping to get one before the new year. Two questions for you, do you have any 2024 coming in that you could review? Also, I've seen in another video from someone else that the Bottom of the Rear seats actually depress down when the top of the seat comes down, to give you just a bit more room. It doesn't seem to do that in your videos. Maybe in a different market? I thought that was strange. Not a huge deal, just odd! Either way, thank you! I don't subscribe to many channels, but I've subbed to you from the other end of the country 😊 Keep it up!
I was in your neck of the woods a couple weeks ago! I'll be back in the office at the start of September so I don't have answers for you at the moment. But feel free to contact me at Bannister Hyundai Chilliwack after September 1st and I'll be more then happy to figure things out for you. For now, I'm on vacation as you'll see on my channel, lots of videos related to it 🙂 Thx for reaching out!!
@@edsgarage001 Haha, regarding the seat question, it was actually your 2023 Hyundai Tucson Trend video that showed them depress down! At the 4 minutes mark. Which doesn't seem to happen for the Hybrid version, I guess due to components being under the floor maybe
Good morning when pulling into a garage without model, would it be beeping as you get up towards the wall or do you have to go to the ultimate trim for that? And is there a switch that turns out off and on thank you.
Hey Ed Great video, really helped me a lot to purchase my vehicle . i got my Tucson 2023 hybrid luxury . does the ambient light always stay on ? i set the different colors . very cool but it always seems to be on ? can it shut off in the day and come on only at night ?
I’d be curious about any comments you may have about attaching a hitch to this vehicle. Also, if I will be traveling to some remote areas and I need a spare wheel, do you have any recommendations?
Trailer hitches are available for this vehicle from Hyundai and other companies. If you remove the foam organizer under the floor, you see some of the hybrid components. But you Could probably squeeze a space saver tire under the floor still. Though, I haven't tried it.
Keep in mind not all of your subscribers are in Canada. Those of us in the USA don’t use the metric system except when using tools like wrenches and sockets. When you give info in metrics, take an extra couple seconds and give the USA equivalent. Aside from that, good review. I’m looking to buy a new car and the Tucson Hybrid is the current front runner.
Great review. Curious if your delaeship charges the "market adjustment" BS fee that most dealeships are charging these days and how many fools out there happily pay it?
Thx for the comment... We sell with a small $3000 markup that includes mud guards, wheel locks, rubber mats, paint protection, cargo tray and window ceramix. Not so BS really, considering we've actually had people buy them and then turn around and sell them for more money and make a profit. In Canada we're barely getting any of these in stock, yet the demand is massive - About 30 times the supply. Thanks to the stock shortages we're only selling about half the cars as we used to, so we need to supplement somehow 🤷
@@edsgarage001 I see various mud guards and cargo trays on Hyundai Canada's website. Do you have more specific on witch models are included in your package? Thanks for your time. Your videos are verry informative by the way. Good work!
The package varies to be honest. Reason being is that parts are now equally difficult to get. So it's whatever happens to be available. We've also reduced our markup/package amounts. Lower end and less sought after vehicles have a $1,500 package now.
All hyundais use matte finish, or nearly matte finish to stop glare. They're also never polarized, so you can wear polarized sunglasses. Pretty much just Nissan that uses glossy screens now.
Question, because there's lots of technology, that's awesome, what happens when something shuts down? Is there any backup assistance or must one get to a first available mechanic to get the technology again running? Are there enough mechanics who are available to repair the technology in this car model?
When did Tucson HYBRID come in RED??? I've been waiting so soooo long! I have only seen them in blue besides the other shades of white, grey, and black.
@@roydenathaide4452 you know what? I'm an idiot .... I just checked my 22 Tucson Luxury video and yeah, no spare tire 🤦 This is what happens when you follow official Hyundai Canada provided documentation.
You need to take another look man... Just because it's missing one little feature, it shouldn't be a deal breaker. Look at all the other features you get. This vehicle blows away the competition in so many ways. Besides, wireless Android auto/or carplay is easily and inexpensively rectified. czcams.com/video/NHf1v-ht_y4/video.html
fun fact, the hybrid battery WILL get to 100% if you run it in sport mode and driving it in sport mode, and agressive regen braking without going downhill. if you want to get the hybrid battery a faster charge, run it in sport mode prior. (good if you want to run AC in park for a while)
the weak point of this vehicle are their headlights. they suck. the rest of the vehicle is great. rest in peace to mine, an Elk decided to play FAFO with mine. the engine is moderately quiet, but it is not the smoothest at idle. but its great when in EV mode, its a very smooth car overall, minimal road noise. i fit a 75 inch TV in its box with seats folded down. great cargo space. i loved it, i beat the snot out of it over 53k miles in 1.5 years. the blue model nexen tires are TOTALLY TRASH, they pickup EVERYTHING on the road....12 road hazards in 18 months and 10 tires replaced!!!!! all from road hazard. but over all its a great vehicle. im not sure if i want another one or not.....
@@edsgarage001 yea, but insurance paying me more than the MSRP was, and considering the warranty was almost up....guess it did me a favor. mecahnically this thing was solid. a few trim issues, and the local dealer by me their service department is worthless, 2 other dealers were fine with warranty work. FYI highway MPG over 65 NOT as advertised when following interstate speed limits in the US. but at 60-65 it will get 36-37mpg. considering speed limits in US on interstates if oftern 70-75mph, it will get about 32mpg. around town ive gotten as low as 32, high as 40mpg, and some individual trips i would even see 60-70mpg if driven right.
Get a 14 pro max or 13 pro max , videos is baddd or if ur an android die hard get an ultra (Samsung) like all of us that oneplus 9 5:13 is not cutting it
The OnePlus will do just fine for now. It's got a hasselblad lense that's actually quite good. I'm not using it to its full potential though. And honestly, you're the first to comment that it's bad. I get a lot of questions asking what I'm using because they think it's good 🤷 In this video I think the lense was a bit dirty causing a bit of distortion. I refuse to ever buy an iPhone. I was a computer technician for 17 years prior to this, and I hate the way Apple locks everything down. I've owned Samsung before and they're overpriced and bloated with crap I don't need. So for now, I'm using this.

Yeah the Limited is the same as our Ultimate
Just bought a 2023 Hyundai Tucson Luxury Hybrid today ... expecting to arrive at the dealer in 3 weeks. Thanks for the info.

Great review, you know your product. Wish you had product and I would purchase from you
Thanks Nick! It was nice talking with you today.
Good morning when pulling into a garage without model, would it be beeping as you get up towards the wall or do you have to go to the ultimate trim for that? And is there a switch that turns out off and on thank you.
No, this one doesn't have the front parking sensors. For that you would need the ultimate.
And yes, that system can be turned on and off
Fantastic👌
Thanks!

You can set it to dim at night. But that's the only day/night configuration.
@@edsgarage001 thanks that what i saw. i wanted the opposite . not the end of the world :) thanks again ED
Very nice vehicle!
Thx for the comment!
Very nice and much preferred over RAV4 and Kia Sportage. It’s such a shame this vehicle is not available in Australia but the others are.
Thanks for the comment!
Is there just no stock available? We're having similar issues in Canada

Thanks for the comment... I'll take that under consideration.
I do appreciate Canadian reviews. A lot of CZcams is from the US.
i heard there is Memory seats 1 and 2 . To keep the seat settings for 2 different drivers . i don't see the button in this model ?
That's only on the top trim, in Canada it's called the Ultimate.
Where are you located? I would like to order a new tuscon hybrid ultimate. Would I get a 2023 or 2024
Hi,
I'm at Bannister Hyundai in Chilliwack BC.
I'm in UK ordered mine on 18th Nov 2022
I'm getting it this Thursday 21st April, it's been some time
Yeah wait times have been nuts
@@edsgarage001 I'm getting it on lease, so was the upfront payment

Are these cars available in Australia and if yes, where in which states?
I have no idea, sorry.. I'm in Canada.
But check your local Hyundai dealership, I'm sure they can answer that.
is that the Short Wheel base or the Long Wheel base version ?
In Canada and the United States, we only get the long wheelbase.
Tuson ultimate 2023 is the lcd screen 10.25 glossy or Matt?
All hyundais use matte finish, or nearly matte finish to stop glare. They're also never polarized, so you can wear polarized sunglasses.
Pretty much just Nissan that uses glossy screens now.
Great review Ed. Are you still doing your cross country trip with your Ioniq 6?
Thanks!
That's the plan!
I've got a video of the ioniq 6 coming soon
Hey man, thx for the comments on the ioniq 6 video....
I can't comment on the video at all yet. I'll reply to everyone after April 3rd.
Question, because there's lots of technology, that's awesome, what happens when something shuts down? Is there any backup assistance or must one get to a first available mechanic to get the technology again running? Are there enough mechanics who are available to repair the technology in this car model?
These aren't really any more complicated then other hybrids on the market. Hyundai technicians are all trained to work on these
@@edsgarage001 Thanks mate. I appreciate your response 👍

I'm in Canada.... They've always come in red here 🫤
I assume this is a Canadian model. US has 3 trim versions (Blue, Sel Convenience, & Limited). Also Red Crimsom is not one of the color choices.
You assume correctly.
Thx for the comment!
Does this model.has the garage door opener
Yes, on the auto dimming rear view mirror
Just for reference, I own the '22 Luxury Hybrid and it has a TMK with no spare tire.
Thank you for the awesome video :)
Do you live in Canada or the USA?
@@edsgarage001 Canada.. Ontario

@@edsgarage001 no problem.. Keep the great videos coming :)
Why on earth did they remove wireless CarPlay on the highest trim? That’s a deal-breaker for me.
You need to take another look man... Just because it's missing one little feature, it shouldn't be a deal breaker. Look at all the other features you get. This vehicle blows away the competition in so many ways.

IDont know about turbo, is it good? I have a Tucson 2017 and changes de turbo 3 times ...
I'm sorry about your experience but the turbos have but been a common issue believe it or not
fun fact, the hybrid battery WILL get to 100% if you run it in sport mode and driving it in sport mode, and agressive regen braking without going downhill. if you want to get the hybrid battery a faster charge, run it in sport mode prior. (good if you want to run AC in park for a while)
