The only thing I can think of is when Audi Q5’s tailgate is up, the lights on the bottom of the vehicle flashes, but I heard it is for emergency purpose?
Really enjoy your channel since I found it last year. Really professional and straight to the point reviews. Even if I'm in Canada our car markets are pretty similar so it's still useful to watch! It's definitely one of the best car reviews channel. 👌🏽
The advantage of driving around in vehicles, that don't have instrument/guage cluster similar to contemporary digital equipment, such as Smartphones and Tablet is that they offer a sense of detachment from the everyday handheld devices. A sense of detachment that could be found admirable by a consumer class. I spend a fair bit of time on my smartphone. Driving around in my 1996 Mercedes-Benz C200 Classic is somewhat therapeutic. No touchscreen, no fancy apps, but just the pleasure of driving around in a classic capsule offering the sight of the bonnet mounted three point star. Quite rewarding!
There's so much going on with the design. From afar, it looks like a clean concept car but a closer look reveals that the details are too much, like those weird fins and lines all over the place. Looking forward to seeing one in person though!
Yeah this thing looks absolutely awesome. I love how unapologetic the exhaust pipes are. Manufacturers go out of their way to hide them best as possible but when they're stuck out like that, it looks great. However, the indicators being so low is a terrible idea. People in big vehicles may have trouble seeing them especially if they have a habit of driving too close to the vehicle in front.
Matt doesn't like anything unless its European. I use to like watching his reviews until i realized how bias he is, hes like one of the worst reviewer to watch if your genuinely watching in the hope of getting the best advice.
This was very enjoyable to watch, Paul - well done. I just wish Hyundai would use the 8 speed auto in the family from the Stinger - an excellent gearbox they use in the Genesis too. Look forward to more videos.
I love the design. Really modern and quirky, but not to weird. The rest of the car seems great too (except for the piano black trim, it´s horrible), so overall I think it´s an awesome car. This car is really for people who don´t want a fast or exciting car, but a stylish and practical one. Hyundai does wonderful stuff lately, I hope they´ll continue doing so.
The design looks pretty good for the class, with just the right amount of aggressiveness/sharpness. My only concern is the ambitious pricing Hyundais seem to adopt these days.
i know looks are controversial and are unique to each person's taste. but i kinda like it. it's weird, yes there may be too many things going on with the exterior design, but i like that it tries to stick out from the crowd. it's that one weird vehicle you stare at because it pops out from the rest of the cars you see everyday.
Fine Review. (And don't forget the Panoramic Sunroof that is BEYOND!) Looking forward to the full review of the production model and all the details. Thanks!
For all the family, Tuscon's Long Wheel Base Version is a massive winner. Good going Hyundai. And thanks Paul for your excellent review.[ps. agree re the piano black. a showroom hit but a real world miss. Also actual knobs would be welcome.]
Agreed! We only had a brief stint with the car and I didn’t use the radio much. When we get one for test that’s something that I suspect will frustrate me.
I’m really enjoying the look more and more. But I’m just in a good mood because I found my favourite Motoring Journalist again and that might be swaying my opinion
Great review. The new Tucson is really good car for family. Question : between the Tucson and the MG HS, whish is the more valuable for a small family ? Thanks a lot for your good work.
Will take delivery of an130n DCT in about a month but would certainly be interested in a Tuscan N as well. Hyundai build great reliable products for a sharp price IMHO
Great review of a really terrific vehicle my friend!...I agree with all your points about this vehicle. Really like the N- Line touches on the exterior differentiating from regular non N- Line models.I also luv the interior , those incredible seats, the alcantara/leather material fantastic. The dash design is very nice & modern. Only minor complaint is no cowl/cover over the 10.25 instrument cluster, which I know has a glare coating on it. But I would prefer this cover. Loads of space in back & great cargo volume. My only other nitpicks are rear turn signals mounted low on the bumper, not a fan. And like you no HUD, a puzzling commission on this high spec N-Line! Great job my friend & can't wait to see one here in the states!
It´s an amazing Car. Best SUV in Europe. You´ve got a lot of Space for luggage. I love this Car and i´m only waiting for the N-Line to come in Germany!!!!
I was hoping they will bring the hybrid version in Australia because of the huge demand of Rav4 Hybrid. As they are not I am staying with Rav4. What do you think about the Rav4 vs Tucson?
Thank you for doing the review on Tucson. Ever since I saw the new 2021 model , have been in love it. As a new driver currently owning Hyundai ioniq, definitely this would be next car. Hyundai in my opinion has nailed the design both exterior n interior. Ticks all the boxes for me. Was worried the Ioniq 5 might change my mind nah sticking with this .
Great design except for door handle placement. Why not camouflage them in the design crease? Perhaps the may look ok when standing in front of it. Would be great to have navigation/maps visible on steering screen like in discovery sport.
I sat in one today as they just arrived in dealers. Very impressed for the most part but I have concerns about the media system and no physical buttons.
Hi Paul, do you have an idea of when we might find out about availability and pricing? We've been holding off buying something else for months but they've taken too long and we'll have to go down another road now.
Hopefully in the next few weeks. We have spec now - I’d wait just a little longer if you can! My bet is it’ll be more expensive. But hopefully not too much.
1st comment . Paul i deserve a like. The design is a total copy of more than 10 cars. The rav 4 wheel arches , front like a Mitsubishi pajero, diamonds like a Toyota chr, rear lights like Peugeot and a seat , steering wheel like a audi
Maybe hyundai copy 4 wheels, round steering wheel, 4 doors.... everyone has a different taste. For me Hyundai tying to make their own design language. Personally I prefer Kia's new design😂
I have to say I like it, I own a 2019 Tuscon Ultimate with the 2.4L and the new 2021 Santa Fe Hybrid and we love it. This new interior design looks good on this Tucson and will be the same interior that will go into the Santa Cruz and Tucson also North America will get the 2.5L turbo 275 horsepower and Europe will get the 1.6L Turbo 177 horsepower and that's not enough
Hyundai tucson N-Line sport just love it can't wait to upgrade, the over wheels plastic gone well done, looking more luxurious, is the panoramic glass sunroof and remote parking assistant come has opption.?
I don’t know how I feel about this one. Just bought a 2021 Ford Escape ST line and feel like all the other SUVs in this market don’t go near it performance wise. Interior looks nice though!
I rented a brand new Toyota Vios in Thailand once, all piano black, with in AN hour it was already full of swirl marks !!! I would have someone at least put down a protection film, pre delivery !
Hyundai/Genesis making cars that actually look like they belong in 2021. Love it.
Agreed!
Hyundai/Kia/Genesis/Ioniq lol... that's what happens when you give 3 Germans money and room to be creative... sad about the N though but N Performance have said we will see what the market demands... never say never wink...
On the outside they do....inside? Not so much
@@Tomoyo0827 when was the last time you bought one or drive one for a wkend? Because that statement is invalid for the last 2yrs dependon the car u drove
Not something I'd buy but jeez take a moment to appreciate the engineering that went behind making the dies for those body panels.
Yep, hydroforming is a bloody brilliant process!
Hyundai’s did a great job on the exterior lighting xcept for those rear turn signals at the bottom of the bumper
It's definitely a strange placement!
Was just about to say...WTF are those!
Imagine having a huge semi behind you. Those turn signals would be a bit hard for the driver to notice. Maybe I'm wrong. I hope I'm wrong.
It’s not like it’s the first car to ever have the indicators on the rear bumper
The only thing I can think of is when Audi Q5’s tailgate is up, the lights on the bottom of the vehicle flashes, but I heard it is for emergency purpose?
Huge, huge jump in design and quality. Looks fantastic.
Don't forget it's got a recessed rear wiper! I love that.
Yes! Forgot to mention that.
Exciting. Don’t know how I feel about it though, there’s a lot going on with the exterior design I don’t know where to look 😅
Really enjoy your channel since I found it last year. Really professional and straight to the point reviews. Even if I'm in Canada our car markets are pretty similar so it's still useful to watch! It's definitely one of the best car reviews channel. 👌🏽
Thanks mate - we appreciate that feedback!
And can we just take a moment for the real exhausts
🙌
Lol... as someone who's been burned from brushing the exhaust, I don't mind a fake! 😉
Great review. Matt Watson should learn from the CarExpert as to how to do a proper independent professional car review!
Thanks mate!
@@cliffwilkins9178 CACHIIIIIIIIIING
No brainer for me to choose between this and xtrail. Love the simple interior
Hyundai is so nicer than Nissan... Go for Hyundai...
Great detailed review but disappointed it won’t be coming in hybrid to Australia
No hybrid option in Australia?!?? Wow that’s a HUGE killer. 1.6t engine is pathetic
Kyle Rutten I know right?! Was excited to get the Tucson but I won’t be purchasing one now.
Just bought 1 today .
Cant wait to pick it up next week
Finally, memory seats in a Tucson!
Awesome work CarExpert keep up the great work :D
Thanks mate!

Yep hold judgement for the moment. I really liked the look of it in person.
The design is a vast improvement over the Hyundai cars of old. I wouldn't mind owning one of these bc it's a very handsome looking car.
I've been looking at getting an SUV and I think this might just be the one. Looks great and has some nice features. Great review Paul :D
Thanks for watching!

People in big vehicles may have trouble seeing them especially if they have a habit of driving too close to the vehicle in front.
I think the low indicators are an ADR thing. The hidden exhaust is to comply with EPA noise measurement.
U were right is actually looks okay in person👌
:-D
Saw one today, love it, they ought have 1.6 t for the n and 2 litre diesel
You like the design, i like the design, the people love the design, Matt Watson doesn't like it :))
Should've gone to Specsavers!
Yeah Matt is simply wrong.
Matt doesn't like anything unless its European. I use to like watching his reviews until i realized how bias he is, hes like one of the worst reviewer to watch if your genuinely watching in the hope of getting the best advice.
I dont like it either
@@dqharvey6347 he loves Japanese
Oh wow. This is a beautiful car. Awesome review as usual. What I wouldn't give to own this beauty. Terrific job Hyundai
Thanks for watching!
Great video as always Paul, would love to see basic tutorials as well. I.e how to change a tyre and other basics 😁
Thanks! We'll see what we can do :-D
This was very enjoyable to watch, Paul - well done. I just wish Hyundai would use the 8 speed auto in the family from the Stinger - an excellent gearbox they use in the Genesis too. Look forward to more videos.
Thanks for watching!
just bought n line version to my dad and yes, its a grat car, he is happy.
Can turn the beeps off in settings 👍

This car is really for people who don´t want a fast or exciting car, but a stylish and practical one. Hyundai does wonderful stuff lately, I hope they´ll continue doing so.
Yep agree with all that!
love the sporty outlook of this new Tucson!
The design looks pretty good for the class, with just the right amount of aggressiveness/sharpness. My only concern is the ambitious pricing Hyundais seem to adopt these days.
Hey Paul I've ordered the highlander nline in diesel when would you reviewing the diesel one
Love it and great review!
Thanks for watching!
It looks premium. Giving the German brands a run for their money I think.
Agreed!
Hyundai has been releasing good cars, the i30N, the upcoming Kona N and the upcoming Tucson N
.... Paul !
“ personally here in person”. You like the look of the rear, in person.
Thanks for that.
thx Paul, good review and cool looking new design. Need to have patience for cleaning the wheels, but real exhaust pipes and cracking seat material 👍.
i know looks are controversial and are unique to each person's taste. but i kinda like it. it's weird, yes there may be too many things going on with the exterior design, but i like that it tries to stick out from the crowd. it's that one weird vehicle you stare at because it pops out from the rest of the cars you see everyday.
Great and comprehensive review!
That is a smart looking machine although the placement of the rear indicators seems dopey.
Agreed!
Fine Review. (And don't forget the Panoramic Sunroof that is BEYOND!) Looking forward to the full review of the production model and all the details. Thanks!
I love all the new onscreen measurements w.r.t length, width etc. A really nice vehicle indeed. Would not mind owning one of these puppies 😁
Great review as always 👏
Cheers!
Just Amazing!, can't wait till the P-HEV Version hits the Australien market early next year.
@CarExpert would be interested in seeing a video review of the new Palisade from you guys!
Love the dashboard. The lovely colorful odometer is cool.
love the design! just dont like the trend about the rear turn signals put lower. thats hard to see in a traffic.
Bro You have the Greatest Job Ever, wish I was in your shoes. Reviewing New Cars is My Dream Job..❤️❤️
Any potential to do a review of the Kona N Line? Another great review as usual!
Yes! Will have one in the coming weeks.
Love the wheels.. but god those would be a pain to clean 😂
You make the car look tiny! How tall are you man?!
Ha ha, not too tall! About 185cm.
For all the family, Tuscon's Long Wheel Base Version is a massive winner. Good going Hyundai. And thanks Paul for your excellent review.[ps. agree re the piano black. a showroom hit but a real world miss. Also actual knobs would be welcome.]
Thanks for watching!
Why didn't we discuss the volume / climate controls? I would always go for knobs even if the car costs a million dollars
Agreed! We only had a brief stint with the car and I didn’t use the radio much. When we get one for test that’s something that I suspect will frustrate me.
I’m really enjoying the look more and more. But I’m just in a good mood because I found my favourite Motoring Journalist again and that might be swaying my opinion
Kona N is next 202kw 8spd NDCT Htrac performance... glad I own an N car... I get to see what's coming before the public 😁
💪🏻💪🏻
Aus getting 4 N models coming this year!
It’ll be a busy year!
👍🏼👍🏼Great that this new version had a hidden rear wiper under the spoiler👍🏼👍🏼
The Back end is epic
Great review. The new Tucson is really good car for family. Question : between the Tucson and the MG HS, whish is the more valuable for a small family ? Thanks a lot for your good work.
Tucson feels bigger and better inside, but you can't deny the value in the MG.
Love Hyundai, really upset at no more Elantra. :( I definitely think I'll be getting a Tuscon in a few years when I outgrow the sedan.
The Elantra is now called the i30 Sedan 😁 still on sale in Australia!
Will take delivery of an130n DCT in about a month but would certainly be interested in a Tuscan N as well.
Hyundai build great reliable products for a sharp price IMHO
Definitely would love a Tucson N. Hyundai please!!!
The designers: TRIANGLES

Great job my friend & can't wait to see one here in the states!
Try as I might I can't take to the exterior styling. Interior not bad.....prefer physical buttons for climate control and sudio
Fair enough!
No doubt looks so distinctive other then the competitor interior and exterior top notch.
That dashboard design sorta reminds me of the Chevrolet/Holden Malibu!
Mat Watson says copy here, copy there. Mention also a few bit safety of the car. 😪
This review is great and informative, I love it. 👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks mate!
It´s an amazing Car. Best SUV in Europe. You´ve got a lot of Space for luggage. I love this Car and i´m only waiting for the N-Line to come in Germany!!!!
If you don’t like piano black you’ll hate the new Audi interiors
Again, the Korean manufacturers are providing insane standard tech for what you would pay crazy money for in a German car.
I was hoping they will bring the hybrid version in Australia because of the huge demand of Rav4 Hybrid. As they are not I am staying with Rav4. What do you think about the Rav4 vs Tucson?
Only issue i see with this is, that dreaded 7 speed DCT i was really hoping they would have replaced that.
Looking good Hyundai👍
i used to watch american and uk reviewers but now i prefer aussie reviewers. so much better.
if... rav4 is the same interior... I dont have to hesitate.
That dust on the infotainment screen and piano black plastic lol
Piano black loves attracting dust 😢
2021 Hyundai Tucson N Line looks very fantastic good 👉🏼(with N Line package)👍🏼😉.
Nice design but no physical button for volume buggs me and they should have put more power in for the N Line
Thank you for doing the review on Tucson. Ever since I saw the new 2021 model , have been in love it. As a new driver currently owning Hyundai ioniq, definitely this would be next car. Hyundai in my opinion has nailed the design both exterior n interior. Ticks all the boxes for me. Was worried the Ioniq 5 might change my mind nah sticking with this .
The latest Tucson looks slick and love the integrated lights. Keen to see a comparison against sister car Kia Sportage when that gets released.
Hi Paul. Love watching your reviews. Really tossing up between this and the Toyota Rav 4 can you provide any advice on which one to go with?
Hard fight... Both reliable and high-tech! Tucson looks better I think but also the hybrid Toyota will save you money if you drive a lot!
Take both for a test! My friend got a rav
4 hybrid and its simple but classy inside. Great fuel economy for size also
What did you go with?
When do we get a “real world” review Paul? Keen to see the base model on Aussie roads and get your thoughts before purchasing 😀
Great design except for door handle placement. Why not camouflage them in the design crease? Perhaps the may look ok when standing in front of it. Would be great to have navigation/maps visible on steering screen like in discovery sport.
I sat in one today as they just arrived in dealers. Very impressed for the most part but I have concerns about the media system and no physical buttons.
Like the exterior a lot, it’s different...

Can we confirm this is not impacted by the recall just like my 2020 Tuscon Active X haha
All clear!
What recall?
First Hyundai without a volume knob. Mistake. Push button volume is a step backward.
Yeah I’m a knob guy too.
Definitely on my short list for new car. But if price is to steep I’ll probably look at the Sorento as price will be getting close to that
I’m hoping they’re sensible with the price. There’s a stack of new tech, but it needs to remain good value for money.
hybrid please
I have to say I like it, I own a 2019 Tuscon Ultimate with the 2.4L and the new 2021 Santa Fe Hybrid and we love it.

Nice Platinum One Q tag on the luggage...
💅🏻 we had to fly interstate for this video and wanted to keep our luggage consistent 😁
What a shame it is not a full N Line performance car like the i30, Kona and Veloster, we need the performance version.
Hyundai tucson N-Line sport just love it can't wait to upgrade, the over wheels plastic gone well done, looking more luxurious, is the panoramic glass sunroof and remote parking assistant come has opption.?
I realise you didn't show the blind spot turning signal failure like the Touson ultimate.
Panoramic sunroof is standard on the Highlander 😁
Great review.
Thanks!
I don’t know how I feel about this one. Just bought a 2021 Ford Escape ST line and feel like all the other SUVs in this market don’t go near it performance wise.
Interior looks nice though!
Tucson is looking to be a winner for Hyundai!
I rented a brand new Toyota Vios in Thailand once, all piano black, with in AN hour it was already full of swirl marks !!! I would have someone at least put down a protection film, pre delivery !
Hi Paul, is the colour in this trim Titan Grey?
Thanks in advance.
Just so mixed up on what trim to get as I want a bit of them all ,
