  • Thanks to my day job at Kelley Blue Book, I drive and review lots of cars. This 2021 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid is one of them. The Hyundai Tucson competes with compact SUVs like the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, and Subaru Forester. In this video, we drive the Hyundai Tucson to review its positives and negatives from a family perspective.

      I keep reading this comment on almost every Tucson YT video. I've had this for about a month and a half (nearly), and no one has come even close to rear ending me, even in tight traffic situations. I think that people who don't own this car are being super critical for no reason. Almost like 'hey, i would've purchased this, if not for...' Nope. You weren't going to buy this. Guaranteed.

    We bought a Tucson Blue(base, SE or eco trim) and I am very impressed. At the base level you still get the best or the "needed" features like heated seats, the driver aides and assistants, and Android Auto/Apple Carplay. You also get better mileage on the Blue trim because of the lack of extra components to power. When driven carefully we get 42 mpg on road trips across the mid-west(flatlands.) The turbo-hybrid powertrain is excellent at passing at highway speeds and zippy around town, in sport mode. I hate recommending this vehicle so much because prices have already been driven up by demand and I would consider buying another one. The dream for me would be if they could put the hybrid powertrain in the Santa Cruz. "TAKE MY MONEY HYUNDIA!"

    Hi guys. So I was interested on getting a 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy then I started watching TH-cam reviewers like this one so I was intrigued when they mentioned 37-38MPG for 2022 Hyundai Tucson Limited Hybrid. However, I started digging deep because I couldn’t make up my mine on a Calligraphy or Tucson Hybrid. So I started hitting the forums and I have read soooo many comments of ppl getting less then 30MPG on the Tucson Hybrid but also forums of a lot of ppl mentioning how they are having jerky/stuttering driving experiences after purchasing the Tucson. After reading the forums and the nightmare that ppl are going through with the 2022 Tucson, I think I am now second guessing on getting a Tucson and avoiding going through the headache of transmission issues or jerky transmission experiences and just getting calligraphy.

    The car in my mind is Hyundai Tucson or SantaFe or Toyota RAV4.

    Well, I must say that I actually like this new Tucson. For the greater part, the styling is awesome, and this is coming from a hater of all the bizarre creases on many of the Japanese vehicles (previous gen Honda Civic, current RAV4, etc). What I don't like on this Tucson is the metal strip with the three indentations on the D(?) pillar. It just looks cheap. I also think the taillights are a miss. It looks a bit like a Mustang Mach-E with a couple of teeth knocked out. Your quick shot of the Kia Sportage looks intriguing. As always, another wonderful Muzio Family Review 👍

    You’re getting the Tucson Hybrid and Tucson non-hybrid all mixed up. The title is for the Hybrid, which Hyundai considers a separate model, and displays it as such on their website. Then your trims and starting prices are a jumble of hybrid and non-hybrid info, which had caused you to make a bunch of errors.
    Use the KISS (keep it simple, stupid) approach.
    The Tucson Hybrid comes in 3 trims:
    Blue - $29,050 38mpg
    SEL Convenience - $31,650 37mpg
    Limited - $37,350 37mpg
    The dynamic cruise control is standard on all three trims, as is AWD.
    The Tucson (non-hybrid) has three trims as well:
    SE - $24,950 29mpg FWD, 26mpg AWD
    SEL - $26,500 same as above
    Limited - $34,790 same as above
    That means the price of a base hybrid is about $4,500 more than a base non-hybrid.
    Smart Cruise Control is Navigation-based (whatever that means), Highway Driving Assist, Blind Spot View Monitor, Surround View Monitor, Parking Assistant, come only on the Limited. Forward Collision Avoidance with Cyclist recognition, Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance are not available on the SE trim.
    So if you’re thinking of the SE non-hybrid trim, be aware that it comes with very few active safety features. All you get is Forward Collision Assist with pedestrian detection (not cyclist), Lane Keeping Assist, and Lane Following Assist.

    Nice review. For what it's worth, a volume knob is not needed, especially for the driver. The volume controls on the steering wheel are much safer to use when driving the car. It helps keep your eyes on the road. A split second of taking your eyes off the road to fidget with a knob can make all the difference. The passenger might get a little annoyed with the capacitive touch volume control, but at least their eyes do not need to be on the road while adjusting it.

Tucson is the most powerful of 3 and fuel economy is virtually the same (CR-V 38, 212 HP, RAV-4 - 40, 219 HP, Tucson - 38, 226 HP). They all are pretty close, but Tucson drives the best and is the most quiet. RAV-4 is chaeper but much worse equipped. CR-V is nice, but has less cargo space.
