Finally! U are spot on. Tucson is an amazing car and with massive legroom. But due to the lack of basic marketing nobody knows abt this. Buck up Sime Darby!
Love the way you critics on signal light on Hyundai n kia.. the safety concerns on motorcyclists that most of them likely to didn't aware abt the signal because of light soooo low
They need to lower their price to sell well. One part people don't talk about is their pricy parts and maintenance after warranty. Pray it don't break down or they will rob your bank. I'm speaking from experience from owning a Sonata and Starexx. Long time ago they sell well because they are cheaper then Japanese cars (but hide their high maintenance). Now same price as Japanese cars they got no chance. They are not like Japanese cars which you can keep for 10-12 years. Once after 5 years everything start breaking down, etc.
Funny why korean car is more expensive to maintain in Malaysia. i live in the middle east and own a hyundai. The korean cars are very famous here due to its reliability and very reasonable maintenance cost. In fact in some region, it outsells toyota and honda by a margin.
@EarthyLee "Long time ago". Please try latest one and come back to comment. Car manufacturers improve. However, somehow Malaysians expect car manufacturers to stay bad without improvement. I suspect it is due to their own mentality of "people cannot improve hence once bad forever bad" mindset, which is nonsense in this hyper competitive world. Everyone improves. 30 years ago Hyundai Kia is bad, now not so. They are fairly reliable now. No their reliability is not Toyota level but do you need Toyota level? Most people change car around 5, 8, 10 years mark anyways, so as long as the car last that long without major issues, then it is reliable.
I still maintain a Sonata NF 2.4 and I don't find the maintenance and servicing costs to be pricey/expensive. To be frank, it has been a very reliable car for me. I guess everyone has different experiences with Hyundai.
finally second person review this car after uncle melaka. im the proud owner of previous tucson tl 1.6t dct. very underrated car. based on my experienced, tucson drive better than cx-5 2.0 and previous gen crv since my family own those car. sadly hyundai malaysia did not market this car properly
It took us a second too, until we saw one running around in Ara Damansara. We suspect HSDM made a mistake of launching this car at a sales event hosted by another automotive media title on a Saturday - as such media turnout was low and so the market wasn't informed as readily as it would have been had the covers been pulled off at, say, a showroom on a weekday.
I love the "button on the door handle" design! I'm so used to it on my wife's Honda BRV.. Anyway..the design of this Tucson is a bit boring lah..looks a bit lazy..just looks like the old Honda HRV
It certainly looks that way. Thanks for the support, and you can join our WhatsApp channel if you'd like to keep it up: whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va1zkac7T8baYV66Dn0t

Like the latest Toyota Harrier. Not safe. Should complain to Toyota too haha.
Great Review As Always, Definitely A Hidden GEM.
Looking forward for the Pug408 review.

@@zaidismail4068 : yes, i drive at 2014 Santa Fe. Very reliable and parts are reasonable.

Couldn't agree more. Tucson or any other hyundai brand are soo underated.
when is kia sportage coming to Malaysia 😮💨
Didn’t expect you to review this car, super as always.
And also didn’t realise when was the car launched here in our country 😂

@@MalaysianMotoring I would suggest that you do a review on the palisade too
The Palisade is not part of the HSDM media/marketing fleet.
Will face strong competition from the Jaecoo J7.
Still using light bulbs in 2024.
5:52 My frustration as well, whenever I see a KIA or HYUNDAI on the road that has this same stupid Signal Placement Design.
Yes, why indicators at the rear bumper?! Absolutely wrong.
I love the "button on the door handle" design! I'm so used to it on my wife's Honda BRV.. Anyway..the design of this Tucson is a bit boring lah..looks a bit lazy..just looks like the old Honda HRV
Me watching this knowing I can get the car at a 50% discount in 2 years
Aiman.... can I work for you?
Am I the 1st. here?

WHY?!🤣
Hyundai should CKD this car to price this lower to better compete with the other cars of this segment. Too bad it is CBU...
No volume, no facility.
@@MalaysianMotoring it is a vicious cycle, no volume > no facility > high price > no volume > no facility > high price...
5:58 that's was 'fucking' annoying, if you ask me😅
