Just drove this exact model as a socar (yup, like you said, rental spec) and you're quite spot on everything and was quite maneuverable in Klang. And you should have used the android auto feature provided
A few years later. I come back check Tucson. Now I understand why Tucson is rare on the road now. I only can see 1 or 2 this batch of Tucson after many years. Goodluck Hyundai
If I'm not wrong, the 1.6T comes with a DCT hence the electronic brake with Auto Hold Function. The 2.0l should be a normal AT thus with the manual handbrake
Kon, one of the things with Hyundai Malaysia is they seem to end up planning their products in a closed room and don’t really consider the actual market in Malaysia. They are basically stuck in the early 2000s! When possible they try to use as much local content, if you remember the Pre facelift actually had a local rubbish touchscreen as well. The reason why this particular unit is so base model is mainly because this effectively becomes Sime’s default rent a car SUV option. Those days the Ford Escape used to fill that role, now it is the Tucson. There is no reason to purchase this model because how even Proton can produce a better quality and better packaged car. At this price if you can’t give 6 airbags, you must be delusional. And it is not to say this will be more reliable, because the competition is a lot better. Hyundai is hoping they will try to sell some at this bargain basement price but when the bargain basement price can be had with other brands and better packaged products, why would anyone buy a Hyundai there. Hyundai Malaysia tend to have these one hit wonders, take the Ioniq and the YF Sonata and the Tucson that came with it. But more often then not they completely ruin an otherwise fundamentally decent product with their cheapening efforts, including but not limited to, the MD Elantra, the Santa Fe (which at the time had a class leading diesel powertrain) and the NF Sonata. Hyundai makes some great cars, they just have a rubbish importer.
Hi Kon. I like your reviews, frank and accurate. There is one little mistake that you sometimes make. It's the pronunciation of "value proposition". You tend to say "value preposition", which doesn't make sense. I'm sure it's just a slip of the tongue, but your videos are so good that this mistake sticks out like a sore thumb. I hope this comment helps you make even better videos. Cheers
Hmm yes this is lower spec. But without keyless entry and push start button? Huhu. Susah la. Now proton and perodua already selling their suv. More affordable and more features.
Good car actually, but sime darby make it looks..hmm..own hyundai tucson sport model sept 2014 fully import from korea.its a great car, the screw also blend very well, engines run smoothly, fit n finish good, soft touch plastics is everywhere, centre console well padded..sun roof run perfectly till now, rear legroom is roomy..
For the same drivetrain, the Sportage is a better car with more safety features. Hyundai is just losing its momentum in Malaysia with the necessity being pulled out. Must quickly bring in Kona with proper safety features to win back some lost sales !!
Compared to kia. More exciting model naza bring here. All segment start from picanto until stinger. Sime darby hmm. Now only selling ioniq and tucson. Although demand of ioniq is there but they not plan properly the stock of ioniq. Always out of stock. Que from korea. I still waiting their new santa fe tho.
New MD lagi teruk. No exciting model they bring in. Santa fe and kona bila mau masuk. If you go to brunei. Hyundai showroom very exciting. So many new model. I heard hyundai motors sudah mau tarik dealership from sime darby

It's a good car fundamentally, but lacked effort in marketing and poorly specced.

Hye kon pleAse review kia sportage 2.0l turbo diesel 2019!
Kon, why would you review the 2.0 when there is a better spec 1.6t? No doubt you did the pre face 1.6t but still why the 2.0?
Hmm yes this is lower spec. But without keyless entry and push start button? Huhu. Susah la. Now proton and perodua already selling their suv. More affordable and more features.
Even the Kia Sportage base spec has better equipment tho... And not to forget that can get the best deal from dealer now.....
Hyundai Malaysia sombong... Kia offer lagi meriah... Hyundai selesa zaman sonata dan elantra prev gen je
@@faris.R56 just tunggu saja new Cerato tu.... Xtau bila nak launch bulak....
Great review kon! Can u review gt86 pls!
Will you be doing the tucson 1.6 turbo review too?
Did Hyundai hint if they will still bring in the Kona? Or even their i30 N? 🤤
Wonder how Hyundai going to compete with Proton X70 at this price point
What's the output of this car?
Hard to see any selling point for this. Personally I'd pick the X70 for this budget
Good car actually, but sime darby make it looks..hmm..own hyundai tucson sport model sept 2014 fully import from korea.its a great car, the screw also blend very well, engines run smoothly, fit n finish good, soft touch plastics is everywhere, centre console well padded..sun roof run perfectly till now, rear legroom is roomy..
Can you review 2019 Kia Sorento please... 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Is this better than X70?
This TuckSoon underpowered?
SD wants profit margin over drivers safety?
I dont see a reason to choose this over the CX5 GL.
Siong C knee room maybe?
for this price, my first choice is Mitsu Outlander (5+2) > X70 > Crv....why x70 second...its way cheaper...thats y crv is my last choice...
Apa khabar, kereta Hyundai Tucson yang baru ni dah dijual ke
Ya. Dah mula jual
@@KonWaiLuen Hyundai Tucson 1.6 ada jugak ke
Ada. Skrg tinggal 2.0 NA dan 1.6 Turbo
I stop watching the moment I heard ".... no keyless entry and push start button...". Hyundai! What's going on?
Is this SUV better than Kia Sportage??
I think the Kia Sportage is better in terms of the specifications (And design too)
Kia sportage Gt Line 8 speed gearbox right?
Hyundai really not serious on this, no keyless, push start, lousy plastic, no rear aircond vents, 2 airbags, bye bye to this model
Can u review the Hyundai palisade year 2020?
For the same drivetrain, the Sportage is a better car with more safety features. Hyundai is just losing its momentum in Malaysia with the necessity being pulled out. Must quickly bring in Kona with proper safety features to win back some lost sales !!
Yeah. The current crop of cars, despite being well-engineered, are lacking USPs to shout. And they are no longer even cheaper than the competition.
X70 far better than this
International market this car comes with bell and whistle. While in Malaysia nooby spec
Keyless entry is problematic.Its always better when its "old skool" things.
You got a point, of course.
X70 makes this car look expensive
In short, the X70 gives you more equipment, power & value for your $$$. The sales numbers don't lie.
Easily
RM 123k for a very low spec Tucson. Good luck with Hyundai... they just screw themselves.
Tucson low spec version totally not attractive
Small screen and design like PSP 😅 but look good la...haha
seem like hyundai is another car company going to quit malaysia market...😂😂
Compared to kia. More exciting model naza bring here. All segment start from picanto until stinger. Sime darby hmm. Now only selling ioniq and tucson. Although demand of ioniq is there but they not plan properly the stock of ioniq. Always out of stock. Que from korea. I still waiting their new santa fe tho.
maybe. walked by Hyundai showroom several times last time and the showroom was empty on all passings of the showroom.
New MD lagi teruk. No exciting model they bring in. Santa fe and kona bila mau masuk. If you go to brunei. Hyundai showroom very exciting. So many new model. I heard hyundai motors sudah mau tarik dealership from sime darby
@@athlonium I agree that ...new optima gt really caught my eye
Brunei mcm2 ada wlupun ia kcil..kretapun standard2 wlau tak mewah. Only proton gelly je Blum masuk brunei
120k is expensive. It’s a pretty basic car
Should be better than X70
