My Son in-law was driving this one and was cut his lane by crazy driver right in front of him. He didn't have enough time to hit the brake, But the Tucson did it for him and thank God no one was hurt.
Unless you dislike your son-in-law.

My brand new 2019 Hyundai Tucson blew up, 15 mins. After owning it.
@@madelyn4674 what, why?
28boxingMP this happened to me the other day! My Tucson beeped at me then applied my breaks when someone stepped on their breaks in front of me. It saved me from crashing into them! I love my Tucson 💕💕💕💕
Micah: Granted major mechanical issues in the first 100,000 miles are comparatively rare these days
Land Rover/Fiat: Hold my beer
I genuinely love a good "Hold My Beer" meme. Good work. No judgment to Fiat/Land Rover owner, but SERIOUSLY! They have awful reputations. Sigh...
I still wouldnt trust this pos. Just get a honda or a toyota why would i bother with this things
@@gigi9467 Scotty Kilmer kool aid, huh
byron Rideaux nope, seen it and now about it an just glas theres a mechanic with the balls to say it
@@gigi9467 Ah yes, Jesus once again (s)trolls by to deliver his opinion of Korean vehicles unadorned by any verifiable evidence, whatsoever.
I just bought this car a couple of days ago! I upgraded from a 2005 Ford Focus. I never thought I’d buy a Hyundai in my life...but here I am and I am in love! I LOVE my car!! And you can’t beat the warranty! Best decision ever!
yes, i moved over to this from a ford as well, had it for 2.5 years now, and i still love it
hows it running after a year?? ours gets here wednesday , a 2019 with 10k miles.
Really I'm thinking about getting a 2019 ford escape... but I love Hyundai
@@babymariah hyundai is better imp
@@airgunningyup have one with 50000 km
Replaced muffler , header leak and control arm bushings all under warranty. Not amazing Fuel economy but a good all around vehicle. Great in the snow
My mom got a Hyundai Tucson because of your review. Great car, and great review!
I drove it for a month as a rental and it was a really good car, smooth drive and great technology. It's worth the price.
No it is not
Sometime in the past, this was a very ugly car, but, now, they made it look awesome.
Dado - Agreed!
The blue colour on this model is so strikingly beautiful.
milocapslock Agreed! So modern and sleek.
Dusk blue
Thanks to Enterprise and my boss sending me on business trips all the time, I know this car better than my own lol.
Louis Win same
So how is it since both of you drive it so often? I'm interested. Thank you!
I have the 2018 Tucson SEL Plus to go with the 2017 Elantra Sedan. It is a nice ride especially on the highway.
Love this Blue!!! Looks fancy. I have the 2019 Sport trim and I LOVE it. I have the other blue and I LOVE that color, too.
I love the rear end of this car. It's got a sense of subtle and sleek minimalism. Reminds me of a gem or sth.
I agree, especially that sleak design of taillight
Entire car looks great.
Dillon H Yup!
I bought this car 5 months ago , the maroon color with the panoramic roof , I love it , nice driving car , plenty of space , and it’s high safety rating . My two previous cars were the Hyundai Sonata , and those cars are also beautifull ..
For buyers, including of used cars, this is very good.., we have had our Tucson Active X since 2017, without trouble or cost. It has done long journeys (in Australia) including four to Melbourne and back to Sydney, say, 1,900 kms total, all easy, comfy, quiet, smooth. Nothing is less than very good so far, whether drive, handling, steering, ride, balance of power and economy.., so, if you want value, reliability, ease, room, it has been a fine all round vehicle.
No, it is not
@@skedaritou8138 If you had got a good one or a bad one, that is what you got, a fact. We have had no problems, reliability. That is what we have. One has stories, good and bad of all cars. My old Corolla has never cost a cent.
I love the interior design. I will buy this one!
Hope you did not, or maybe should be loking for a new engine or 2 rn
Hyundai genesis and kia is better than toyota and honda dont get me wrong i still love honda and toyota but hondas have the most ugliest design and bad transmission cvt ! i would pick toyota and hyundai over honda any-day but look hyundai has better warrantee better design and better futures and better sound system better transmisson! No cvt crap!
2.0L Preferred AWD (Canada) owner here.
Everything is great except the fuel economy. I also agree with the lack of rear seat fold button/release mechanism gets people annoying, fixed for the new generation however.
4:15 2.0L gets worse mpg due to the lacking power, it downshifts very easy.
Thank You Almighty God for blessing me with Your grace I will buy one for myself
Tucson is nice suv car. I love this💚💖👏
Two things. #1, the 2.0 engine is severely under powered, SEVERELY! #2 , if your Hyundai is past it's bumper to bumper warranty, and let say, your engine or transmission goes, Hyundai will gladly replace bad units, but you must pay labor, ranging from $160.00 to $185 per hour!
I have my Tucson for over a year AWD and I love 💘 it specifically when I found out that I can turn it into Bluetooth speaker 😆 you have to understand that my last car was. Pontiac 6000 😆..I am old-fashioned
This SUV is just amazing
Amazing how the engines blows apart itself!
I ❤️ my Tucson
I love this color combination! This is the exact ideal color combination I'm looking at getting for this car used now in 2022
Thank You for this video. I am purchasing one.
I have the Night Edition, love it.
This is my dream car
Last week purchased a 2019 Tuscon Ultimate AWD, I came out of a 2017 Lexus NX F sport AWD that I paid 18 K more than the Tuscon. Without too many specifics, the Tuscon more than holds its own. Four big differences, the Tuscon is much slower, gas mile isn't great as noted, AWD in Tuscon isn't as smooth when tires hit pools of water, and seats in no way compare. The Lexus seats were amazing. Issue for me was that the Lexus Technology was terrible. List of cool things in Tuscon that Lexus lacked include, panoramic sunroof, carplay, auto rear lift gate, triple beam LED's, wireless charging, lane keep assist, pedestrian detection, cooled seats, heated back seats, and a Navigation, integrated head end that is so easy to use. Plus their telematics and warranties blow away Toyota's. Will I go back to Lexus, well maybe. BUT I hear the next Tuscon is going to be amazing and and so far my impression with this vehicle, the MFG and obvious items aside, has been favorable and impressed. For $29,000 there is no other car on the road as option rich.
These crappy Toyota things always lack in innovation and technology. This makes them less complex and easy to work on. This bullshit is what they sell in under the tag of reliability and low maintenance. That's it.
I've never heard of someone dropping from Lexus to Hyundai, Lexus to Genesis sure but Hyundai
When 21 NX (all new is out) I will return.
@@ravjohn I don't understand why you left in the first place
The 17 NX lacked almost all technology. The Navigation, touch pad were terrible, no CarPlay, no VSC, lane keep assist, pedestrian detection, cooled seats, triple beams, 365 degree camera, no auto wipers, auto high beams - And absolute worst telematics on market. I was able to sell at fair price and lease loaded Tucson for great price while putting 35k back in bank. The Tucson blows away the Lexus in terms of telematics, IOS app, navigation, Bluetooth, smart touches such as wireless charging, and many other well thought out elements that Lexus lacked. And this was my second NX as I previously owned a 15. I’m done with Lexus doing mid cycle refresh in 18, adding car play in 19 and then for 20 reworking the suspension. For 50k wireless charging and triple beam LED’s-should be standard. I suspect when the larger, faster, 8 speed 21 NX comes out it will have touch screen NAV, heads up display and finally add those items already available on the 19 RAV4. I decided to skip a few MY NX’s to allow the car to catch up to competition. I do again miss the great seats, smooth ride and way NX pushed through snow and rain. Tell you this, there are about 10 things in the new Hyundai Palisades that are so clever. I wouldn’t dismiss the 21 Tucson that Hyundai promises will blow away competitors. I am very pleased with my 19, except when taking longer trips then I do miss the NX ride but not the horrible NAV that was incapable of even basic operations. As Fortune Magazine pointed out in their review of the NX last month “Overdue for an Overhaul” and I agree.
Sounds like Hyundai put more sound insolation in the new Tucson.
Fuel economy is a bit disappointing though , cars like a equinox or rav4 are more powerful and get better mpg. I wonder if the next gen will get the Atkinson cycle for better numbers although props to hyundai for not going the cvt root. I prefer the sportage over the tuscon but RAV4 or cx5 over either.
Wouldn't make that much of a difference, you'll have to keep it a while for it to matter
The equinox is an ugly, cheap looking step child in a category of its own.
The RAV4 is not a looker either, but reliable as every other Toyota
I have the 2018 Terrain Denali with the 2.0, while my wife does 95% of the driving with it she is getting 10L/100km which is roughly 18-20 mpg USA and I am happy with that...
We just bought the 2019 SEL VALUE model. A couple of things it doesn’t have which you mentioned is the forward collision warning and the power lift gate. Also from my web searches I learned the 2019 doesn’t have much available in the aftermarket. All in all we are happy with it.

My brand new 2019 Hyundai Tucson blew up, straight off the dealership lot.
Peacock Hyundai Savannah
Practical family car. I Love it
And most people dont usually use the cargo space. I think having small or big cargo space is not a big issue.
Your NorthAm definition of compact is stunning :)
DaxXx988 we're very fat here
Because of the problems with the "GDI" engines, I would be
very reluctant to buy one of these. Also, this vehicle has
poor fuel economy. When gas prices increase, anyone who
purchased this vehicle may regret having done so.
However, if they could build a version with an efficient
port injected engine, I would probably buy one.
Right now, the only Hyundai vehicle that has a port injected
engine, and respectable fuel economy is the non-Turbo
version of the Kona.
we have this car and i dont know what he is talking about its a fun car we live by the beach and we have a blast with this car.
I get on this month. I love it 😍😍
Enjoy your reviews Micah👌🏼
Howdy, great review as always! This is one of my favorite cars!
I personally have the "Base" of the 2017 model. It has vents in the rear.. that's strange.
Joe Baker I have the base SE 2017 and no vents on the back seat.
Ellen Marie must be a difference in the Canadian spec?
Prices in NA are quite low but insurance costs are ridiculously high.
I got a chance to see the pictures of the all new Hyundai Tucson for model year 2022. It looks amazing. It will be slightly bigger and wider than the current version.
Total Recall is one of the greatest movies ever made.
Are you kidding me? CX-5, CR-V, and RAV4 all don't have panoramic sunroof. Tucson is a big winner in this price range.
Micah is the most vibrant 50 year old that I've ever seen.
50, really? 😲
ideaynojodas yeah its pretty insane. I heard his secret is arugula and raw goat milk.
@@caseyfryback8271 Goat milk I heard tastes like ass
A naturally aspirated 2.0-liter engine with FWD consumes 23 mpg city? That's even worse than the CX-5 turbo.
Giving that small of an engine the weight of an SUV....of course it won't be great.
$100 or so a year more for gas, hardly a deal breaker.
Thanks was thinking of buying one.
I don't even care about the Hyundai Tuscon ... but this guy is hilarious.
GASP! Micah said "Damn"! hehe. Good work, Amigos!
Actually, the Hyundai Tucson is a subcompact SUV since its length is in the 170 inches, not 180.
The Hyundai Tucson is the compact. The Hyundai Kona is and the upcoming Hyundai Venue are the subcompacts. The Kona has the option of AWD, the Venue does not.
@@chuckers40 Yes, you have a point, but the Santa Fe is a compact, and the Tucson is a subcompact, and the Kona + Venue are the two smaller subcompacts. The palisade is the new midsize SUV.
@@kryogenicmx591 I look at it like this: Hyundai Santa Fe is a two row midsize (Ford Edge, Nissan Murano, Chevy Blazer, etc) and the Palisade is the three row midsize. The Tucson competes with the Kia Sportage, Honda CR-V, Mazda CX5, Ford Escape, Chevy Equinox, Nissan Rogue, Toyota RAV4, GMC Terrain, Jeep Cherokee
@@chuckers40 Ah, it now makes sense
@@chuckers40 so Tucson also competes in size and categorized the same as sante fe?
Micah is the best!
Need to find a better location than a dodgy under pass
This is a beauty
I love the Tucson, but did this minor update fix the sort of weird transmission?
Yes. They did away with the 1.6 DCT that gave so much trouble.
The automatic hands free lift gate is a total hit or miss. I have a 2016 Hyundai Tucson Sport with the feature and have kept it turned off because it opens up even when you don’t want to. Simple example: consider that you are returning near your vehicle, and only want to wait behind the vehicle for some time, may be to make a call or wait for other people, still the vehicle thinks that you want to open the lift gate and starts doing so unless you move to another area within 3 seconds!!!
Micah you're awesome!
Hi and thank you again for another great video.
My problem is I don't know which is a better car for me the Mazda cx30 which is very nicely made and the Tucson Sel. Can you help me decide please?
1:51 I wonder why car manufacturers keep the fog lights halogen when they make the headlights led?
LED white light is no good in fog.
This Guy actually its good .

Great review. I am more drawn to the CRV for its family practicalities but the Tuscon definitely comes very close.
Comparing the top trims of the CRV and the Tucson, I can't help but to be drawn to the latter for its added features like 360 camera, ventilated seats and 8" screen.
They're pretty much equally practical. For me, it came down to price.
MIcah, kudos for noting that 100K power train warranties seldom have to be redeemed. The same, by the way, is true for Hyundai/KIA's relatively longer than typical 50K bumper-to-bumper warranty. And it's true of VW's even longer 72K BtB transferable warranty. Warranties are insurance policies. And like any insurer the manufacturer won't offer it if they lose money doing so. New car warranties are marketing tools designed to reassure skeptical customers about a brand's reputation and reflect a manufacturer's confidence that on average they will seldom if ever be redeemed. The one invariable fact is that once offered, a manufacturer will never rescind a warranty offer even when the events that led to a soiled reputation have long since been corrected. Hyundai and KIA have offered their warranties for a number of years to counter their reputation of building cheap disposable vehicles, a reputation that is long since inaccurate. VW instituted their longer warranties to counter a reputation for poor quality control that occurred nearly two decades ago.
In fact, though Toyota/Lexus and to a more limited extent Honda retain their reputations for highly reliable vehicles, the actual margin of differences among brands has been shrinking tremendously for years. It's for that reason that the best independent metrics of reliability from sources such as the annual Consumer Reports surveys have shown considerably greater variation in rankings from model year to model year than in the past. The actual incidence of problems from brand to brand is so close that minor increases/decreases can move a brand up or down several spots. Toyota/Lexus typically hold the top spots in rankings for a variety of reasons including the fact that they jealously guard their spots with conservative engineering and avoidance of innovations that help insure that even abuse and neglect will have relatively small impacts on their vehicles.
Consider the following hypothetical (but fairly common) example. Brand A has an average of 30 issues (of various severity) per 1000 vehicles. Brand B has 10 issues pure 1000 vehicles. Is Brand B three times as "reliable" than Brand A? Of course not. Does Brand A have three times as many issues as Brand B. Yes. But note that 97% of Brand A's vehicles have no issues compared to 99% of Brand B. The vast majority of each brand's vehicles have no issues, at all.
It's not surprising that many consumers are especially sensitive to and value highly a vehicle's reliability. Humans tend to be especially sensitive to rare events that are especially costly when they do occur. Therefore, longer and more comprehensive warranties are reassuring if a consumer is nervous about a brand. But the fact remains that today even less reliable brands are far, far more reliable than those same brands a decade or more ago.
Low ground clearance sucks, our 2017 got 'hung-up' a few times in the winter in our parking lot.....our next vehicle 'will' be a Subaru or a Mitsubishi, or a proper 4x4 pick-up!
0:12 No, unless you have lifetime guarante and do not mind your engine blowing up
0:40 those are the 18" wheels
Toyota Rav4 is a safer bet for its reliability, higher resale, and the standard Toyota safety-sense package. Plus, Hyundai dealerships are usually shady AF. ⚠
2.0L - Meh
2.4L - Eh
You want to get one of these for WELL under 30K.
Also, I think the Tucson got more popular is because Hyundai changed their base powertrain from the 1.6L turbo-4 to the 2.4L natural aspirated in-line-4.
Problems with the 1.6L Turbo. Head Gasket leaks, intake manifold gets junked up. Plus paired with a DCT wasn't a good combo for even the medium term.
The 1.6 turbo with the 7-sp. twin clutch is now in the Kona.
@@76carmel Dual Clutch. Drive a Kia Soul Turbo with 100K on it. I'm being very generous with 100K.
2 L NA for a large car really ?
@0:22 wait a second, that sedan looks kind of like this Tucson. Not complaining about what Hyundai has taken cues from if it looks this good.
Ronald Chow oh , yeah that audi a4 looks so sonata/tucson .
Just got mine a couple of weeks ago. A 2.0L AWD value trim. Is it normal that it over rev with out really giving to much torque/power.
Can you imagine, if someone turned this car into a sleeper 🤔🤷♀️
Wait till the tucson n comes out. 340HP
DigitalYojimbo where did you get that figure from?
The back opening like that sucks. It opened when I had my son come home from the hospital and I didn't see it. My neiggwas awesome and told me. But what if he didn't. My neighborhood isn't very safe from thrives
Thanks. :)
Micah I kid you not. I kept hearing a bit a Wonder Woman theme in your music for this video. Nice job 👍🏽
Does it comes with parking sensors in the very top trim?
I LOUW VOU HYUNDAI Tucson 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I HATE the plastic backs on the front seats. I'm taller and sat in the back seat and it was not comfortable.
U look like Paul Rudd, anyone agree ?
I can see myself carrying heavy boxes waiting for it to open :( under bumper sensor also might be nice. NO CVT :) that's good VW Tiguan a good choice also and aggressive discounting by dealers VW
Yes! I love my Tiguan, best car out there :3.
Beautiful car
The next gen Tucson should be for model year 2021 or 2022.
Does anyone know if this car has Remote Start in the key fob?
Yes it does
I purchased a 2021 Tucson , one of the safety features i like are the anti collision sensor as well of the 7 air bag on the interior, unfortunately i was in a accident which results in a total loss, believe it or not non of the airbags was deployed and the anti collision sensor in a medium sensitivity was not working as well.
I would not recommend the brand at all.
After inspection by Hyundai ingeniers they said that everything works normal lol even with the physical and obvious results.
Please think twice before to decide to buy those brand.
Also check the recalls that they have are a lot , and some of them related with safety features.👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
HYUNDAI: Tucson GT with the 2.0T Please and thank you! Otherwise this car looks nice but is seriously mid pack in every way.
I have the Night Edition and it's nice, but a 2.0T would've really added to the wow factor.
What model is this one?
Guys i have a question.. my tucson 2019 when engine is started, i must just very gently press the acceleration petal for some meters and then accelerate! If i try to drive immediately, it starts to push like trying to find the speed and to doesnt fully engage to the D1 etc for some seconds. My CLatch disks are brand new. Is it normal?
Yes for the car it iin how should it be , it is not normal if the disk are new seems like a the rings are installed incorrectly or have a problem
Whats d name of this color??
Dusk Blue
Que color es ese???
I have the ultimate for 8 month now and I love it. On the downside it have some annoying and other very annoying, at 6 month I lose all power but was able to drive to the nearest hyundai, same thing at 7 month, this is anoying, driving on the hightway and losing power is not fun. The others inconvenient is the rain, when it's rainning the camera do not give a good view and in winter it's worst, I need to clean them up very often. Also, in a blizard the radar can have too much snow and it stop working and when you have this you have two light comming on and the safety braking goes off. The spare tire space is not very good, you have plenty of space but nothing to help be organized so the tire tools goes everywhere and all the stuff you put ther too. Finally the app or the web program are not the same and both are very very very very slow. I know, I complaint a bunch but I still love this Tucson, it turn around better than my previous Elantra and in spring it's fun on the road.
Why did you don't talk about the price ?
I own a Tucson, Base SE starts about $23,000, Value:almost $25,000: SEL: almost $26,000: Sport : around $28,000: Limited: over $29,000 and Ultimate: around $32,000. That's not counting options
5:17 Shady Shady Muzioooo!!! This comment pretty much translates as:" I wouln't buy this one, I would buy the japanese competition." (I agree with you).
Is the Tucson or Santa Fe bigger?
Santa Fe is bigger. It's a two row midsize.
Which package has the self open cargo hatch?
I think it the "Sport" version and up
Always good to start a video by telling a car to shut up, haha
my hyundai has a sport mode and the lock system for the tires.
#hyundai
What color is this in ?
Inge Nunis looks like dusk blue
Very bad fuel econemy rating! The big brother SantaFe is rated with the same mpg! Even the 2013 CRV with 2.4 is better fuel economy.
Exactly why i just opted for Santa Fe. Lol. More room too.
Enta bdeen!
I LOUW VOU HYUNDAI Tucson 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Is this car review for your Hyundai Tuxon or payed commercial for Mazda?
Because he mentioned the CX-5 alongside a half-dozen other models? Get a grip.
You guy did not find any better place to place the car and make the video ? Lolz
Thought they there getting rid of a dead body.
If you buy a Hyundai be prepared to spend minimum of $175-$500 every month on BS problems you will never experience in a quality car like an Honda. Every other month you will have to replace 1 0f 6 to 8 catalytic converters that go out for no reason like clock work one after the other. Your gas line will need replacing, then your gas tank that rotted from the inside for no apparent reason. Your check engine light will be on more than it is off. When you finally replace the entire engine and decide you've had enough, and sell it for next to nothing, you'll buy yourself an Acura and realize that it never needs maintenance, that it isn't normal to be without your car every other month because it's in the shop again, and you'll swear like I did to NEVER buy another Hyundai again!!!
I want to get the CRV but it has these reported oil dilution issues (2017 onwards) so i might get sportage or tucson????
Still get the 1.6t in Oz lol
