The small SUV segment is white hot right now, and it's only getting hotter and hotter as time goes on. With more and more people trading in their sedans for these cute utes, the competition is fierce. Where does the 2017 Hyundai Tucson stand? Let's find out!
All new for 2016, Hyundai put a great deal of time and effort into making their Tucson not just crawl up on the competitors, but leap into the race for first. With its bold, attractive styling the exterior right away grabs your attention - but not in a negative way by any means. This is a handsome SUV with taught proportions and just the right amount of shine to balance out the "tough" looks. The available 19" wheels are icing on top.
Step inside the 2017 Tucson Sport or Limited trim grade and you will find that Hyundai has upped their game again, after only on year! Materials on the doors have been upgraded to pleasant soft touch trim on the upper and middle portions. Regardless of which trim level you find best fits your needs though, it's undeniable that this interior is handsome. It has a youthful maturity to it; something instantly familiar yet grown up - like that best friend you haven't seen since you were kids. The seats are superbly comfortable with nice bolstering and adjustable lumbar and available power movements to boot. Step up to the Limited with the Ultimate package and the front seats are even heated & cooled! The rear seats are just as nice as the front thrones. Comfortable, nicely bolstered and reclining. They too even come heated with that Ultimate package. Set your destination with the Hyundai Navigation or Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, pick your favorite tunes to blast through the Infinity audio system and sing your heart out. Lest I forget the incredible moon roof! Every passenger benefits from this luxury, one that encompasses both first and second rows even while open.
It is from the drivers seat that the personality infused into this little Tucson really becomes apparent however. Endowed with the 1.6T engine you fill find a robust and willing heart mated to an athletic 7 speed dual-clutch gear box. Together these bring this Hyundai to life. With 175hp & 195lb-ft torque massaged out of the 1.6 liter 4 cylinder not only do you have what it takes to haul up to a 1,500 lb. trailer but your bank account will be pleased with the savings as you drive an EPA estimated 25mpg when combined with AWD.
What else are you waiting for? Toss some gear into the back, load up a few friends and head out on your next adventure - the Tucson will take you there in style. All you have to do is choose your favorite color.
Grappone Hyundai is located in Bow, NH just south of Concord and only 20 minutes from Manchester. Conveniently located at the intersection of I89/I93 - come see why we are Driven to Amaze!

Great review! Not going to lie this video helped me buy this car. Just got the limited full package and that beautiful sunroof! Thanks!
WylunCustoms that is awesome - congrats!! Hearing those words are what makes this all worth it, knowing that my review is helpful to the consumer in all of us. Which color did you choose?
thanks! I actually got the same one in the video, white with beige leather interior. I love how the sun shines through the sunroof into the car and the beige seats really show alot more detail and just makes the car look brighter inside. just a great car over all and a fun ride. Also, dont remember if you showed it in your review, but apple car play is pretty cool! I also watched your recent mazda 6 and 2017 honda civic hatchback videos and was very impressed by those review! all those cars were all around my price ranged (full packaged), so I really appreciated the videos! keep it up! even though I got my new car, I'm still subcribed! cant wait to see what new cars you review. thanks again!
WylunCustoms That's awesome, I also love that color combo and totally agree that the beige leather shows so much more detail. I'm thrilled that you are enjoying our channel despite having purchased a new car! Enjoy your ride and to the Grappone Drive Community!
WylunCustoms does it come with blind spot monitoring? Also how's the gas mileage?
Congratz! How do you like it after a year?
Great video, I like the way you place that front camera and not lot of reviewers are doing this. It's fun to watch and this car is beautiful and full of goodies.
I saw this review video 3 times! Getting the Limited in white with the beige interior in a few hours from the dealer!
Do you like your Tuscon. I am looking at a new 2018 model with the 1.6 turbo
Good review Grappone Automotive Group and the young man who did this video!
Best review I've seen so far. Thanks for the great info!
You're welcome, glad to have been of help!
This is a great review thank you for your time in doing it. You are very honest during your review and down-to-earth.
absolutely great review. thank you for all the specific information on the vehicle. gives me alot to compare. keep the reviews coming!
I actually purchased this too after this review, bought mine June/2017..was between this & the Mazda & definitely think the Tuscon is way more refined & classy looking, it's a gorgeous shape on the outside & just as nice on the inside..I got the silver though with black leather & just love it!!
A nice review and enjoyed the dual or split screens during the driving!
Super cool Crossover and drive test. Thanks for uploading this video. 👍
great review, we just bought this car and actually found out more features when watching the video! thanks!!
How do you like your Tucson?
I have the 2016 and LOVE mine!
I just got this car recently. Is the dual clutch an issue? I heard many reviews on it or is it updated through a software. Not sure what I should be looking out for with that issue.
First guy to really put a emphasis on that sunroof. That's was my selling point
I bought one of these used and absolutely love it!
I have a 2016 Sport which I love! I did not know that the cargo tray dropped into the lower position prior to hhis video. Awesome tip!!
I'm thrilled that you love your Tucson Kade, and even more so that you learned something new about it from my video!
Really like your complete and professional reviews and good camera work. Wish you would give prices with breakdowns right at the beginning. It is hard for me to really consider and pay attention to the review without knowing what price range we are talking about. Many thanks.
Thank you Kathleen, I am glad that these reviews are helpful to you. I will keep your suggestion in mind for future videos.
Great review. Wonder what car you would buy if in the market for one?
Nice just got this car and this video helped me see where the cool things are! like the trunk lowering trick I'm going to try! thanks!
That's so awesome, congrats and enjoy!!
Thank you for helping me make up my mind. I've owned Hyundais since 2003. Great cars! Also easy on the wallet for maintenance! My mechanic loves them because they are easy to do maintenance on. He can get to everything without taking the car apart.
I had many Hyundai cars, very economical cars! Thanks for such a great review.
Thank you so much for your review. Very informative
great review, keep up good work
Does this Ultimate trim have Android Auto /Apple CarPlay for the 2017 year?
Well done. You are easy to listen to and very informative. I currently have a 2011 Tuscon which I love. My neighbor is a mechanic for Honda, so I want to test drive a CRV as well, but of course the 2017 is not out yet and neither is the 2017 RAV4, the other small SUVs that I would like to consider. Under ideal conditions I would like to test drive all 3, but since the 2017 Tucson is out now I will have to go there for a test drive. This video pointed out all/some of the changes that have been made (for the better) from my 2011 model and I am impressed. So far the only hesitation I have is the increased cost of the Tucson vs the others and the much lower trade-in value for the Tucson from the others.
Kenneth, thank you for watching the video and your kind words. I have been able to drive all three models you mentioned and can say that the RAV4 is the least sporting in character. The CR-V steps it up with a great ride and nice handling, the Tucson comes in with the tightest handling of them. I highly recommend driving all three to determine which best fits your style. By chance are you close by? Feel free to stop into Grappone Auto. We have all three SUVs at all times and will gladly let you drive them without sales pressure. Either way you can subscribe to our channel for more great content like this! Soon enough the RAV4 & CR-V reviews will be out.
My mom has this car and is probably giving it to me relatively soon. I'm used to driving 2002 suburban so this car feels jumpy and like it goes 0-100 with the slightest push on the gas. My mom has a lower tier model (same transmission and engine) but we don't have a lot of the fancy interior stuff, and for my first car it's definitely gonna be nice. Does Apple Carplay work on the 5" touch screen?
thx for mentioning the stereo specs. Most don't.
nice review guy
I love my Tucson 👍👍
Nice and detailed review. Thank You!
Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed! Please subscribe to our channel for new content like this weekly!
Why don't you place the video inset of the interior shot in the upper left hand corner of the screen so we can see the car's view of the road better?
Great video!
Great review...i love this car & i m planning to buy it,,i have a question that does Hyundai Tucson comes with these alloys in India too?
Thanks and glad you enjoyed the video. I am not sure which wheel designs come on the Tucson for India. For that I would check on the Hyundai India website. Cheers!
A great review, good work
Good review! Very helpful
Excellent review! Thanks
Is there a way you can cover the sunroof? Don't ask me why I want to close it, I just want to know if you could cover it.
There is a power retractable cover that closes over the entire thing.
Good Review!
Excellent Review
I learned about the stand free trunk unlock accidentally one day when I was grocery shopping with my son and was looking for my keys to hold the button but then magically the doors opened😂
Did you have any problems with the dual clutch automatic?
I did not have any issues while I was driving this. I know that Hyundai made some changes to their DCT for 2017 and I haven't heard of the issues with it since.
Sorry, but we live in Raleigh, North Carolina. Have it narrowed down to a Hyundai Tucson or a Toyota RAV4, but the RAV4 is not out yet.
I have to change the turbo and the compressor only 3 years later
GREAT DEMO!
Just bought a 2017 Tuscon Limited with the Ultimate package for my wife in Sahara Sand & it is a fantastic ride!!!
Great car with the best warrantee.
Love the perforated heated real leather seats (F&R), The panorama moonroof is to die for, 8" navigation is great & the premium sound system sounds wonderful.
Only feature we will really miss is the memory driver seat & mirrors.
I would rate the Tuscon Limited with the Ultimate package for around $30K 9.5 stars!
That is awesome, congratulations on your new car!!
good review
i'm about to buy a new car and i'm stuck between honda crv or mazda cx5 but i think i just fell in love with the tucson! btw he's so cute!
Hi Kylie, thanks for watching the video! All three of the SUVs that you are considering are excellent machines, each providing a slightly different flavor to the market. Are you near Grappone? Feel free to stop in and test out all of them (we carry Honda, Mazda, Hyundai, Ford & Toyota) without any pressure to purchase one, no commissions here! And if you haven't done so already, subscribe to our channel for more great videos.
hey did you get a suv? and also how do you feel abut the 2017 nissan rogue
Jae Montage i ended up with the mazda cx5 and i love it!
mazda cx5 is my next car,
Was your camera operator daydreaming during the cargo space demo? All I could see was you, standing next to a shadow.
I wonder if the DCT no-go issue from a stop is already repaired in the 2017? Some 2016 needed an update, and in some instances, it did not work as a fix...
+atladyleo1 I can't comment either way as I'm not sure, but I will say that at no time did the car not go as intended for me. I also did not notice any hesitation at takeoff that can plague a dual-clutch transmission. Hope that helps!
I've got a 2017 one and I don't have any issue with DCT although you might feel a little shudder at low rev jus like MT but that depends on how sensitive you are to it...
Very well done video, but just wanted to note that there are many other turbocharged vehicles that come with a dual clutch transmission, including my BMW. 👍
Buen video,,saludos desde Perú
Does it come with blind spot monitoring? Also how's the gas mileage?
Edwin Garcia the Tucson does come available with Blind Sport Monitoring with Rear Cross Traffic Alert, it is standard on the Sport and Limited. The gas mileage is EPA estimated at 23/30/26 city/highway/combined on the SE, 26/32/28 on the Eco and 25/30/27 on the Sport & Limited with front wheel drive. They are 21/26/23, 25/30/27 and 24/28/25 with the available AWD.
I just brought the Hyundai Tucson sel plus awd
Congratulations, enjoy your new ride!
Congratulations. How's the car holding up ?
does it have adaptive cruise control?
Unfortunately, that is the one feature that it lacks. Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection and Lane Departure Warning are available.
really good job
i want to ask u which is the best engine is it the 2.4 liter or 1.6T?
1.6 177 hp
+Diamond Fox, thanks for posing this question. Having driven both, I personally prefer the 1.6T. With 175hp 195lb-ft (compared to 164hp 151lb-ft) it has significantly more torque than the naturally aspirated 2.4L engine, which gives you that "in your seat" feel when you step on it. That being said, both engines are great and it really depends on your personal preference. Have you driven a Tucson with each engine to compare?
Actually No but i'm consider on buying the 1.6T when it hits our region i like all the new tech. in the car and the way the car looks. but if they do have the two engine ill definitely try the 2.4L. Before buying.thank u for your reply my friend.
You are very welcome, pleased to help!
I have the 2016 tucson would love to upgrade to limited.🙂
Is it a good car? Any problems so far?
I'll be getting this car next month. I can't wait!
how about the 2017 Nissan Rogue I'm just wondering cause I'm trying to chose my self which one
+Jae Montage depends what you're looking for
dito7347 yeah definitely i've been doing research on different SUVs apparently the Hyundai Tucson is having transmission problems there's event videos of people on TH-cam stuck in the middle of traffic because the transmission keep messing up
Dreamy Skye hey I support anybody's decision when choosing a vehicle but before you pick a vehicle that you like please check out carcomplaints.com
+Jae Montage Customers have complained about Nissan's CVT transmission failing. Engine recall on certain Hyundai models is going on currently. On another note I like the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Cherokee. Not a fan of the other Jeeps but the Wrangler is a maybe. Doesn't matter what vehicle you get, you just have to do your research to see what is best for you.
Love the car but I wish they'd carry the body color down and get rid of the black, hate the rims but I'm a chrome guy. I have a 2016 Rav4 Limited and after seeing this, Toyota is less than sporty. Can you get running or nerf boards for this? I trade every 2 years so this is definitely on my list. Great and informative review.
Keith, thanks for watching I'm glad this was informative and enjoyable to watch. As for the running/nerf boards, Hyundai does not offer any themselves. I find the climb in height to be low and easy enough that they are not necessary for me at 5'7". I'm sure there are aftermarket manufacturers that produce some if you decide to go with them. Let me know how you make out should you swap to the Tucson!
Grappone Automotive Group
Thanks for the info. I'm 6ft I just like the looks of the nerf boards plus they serve as protection from other people's car doors dinging yours.
Next time can u test out the automatic brake on the pedestrians, that would be fantastic.
I really want to get a crash test dummy and a car cut out so that I can try these automatic braking features out!
Really nice Ride ❤
Liked and subscribed thanks bro
I LOUW VOU HYUNDAI Tucson 👍👍
Nice!
Thanks for the review! If ever I’ll meet you the sandwich is on me.
I really wanted the Kia Sportage SX its perfect for me but I can't see myself dropping $35k on a Kia I can get a BMW for that. I was looking at this car I don't really like it but the 2017 looks better was it newly redesigned? Or does the 2016s come in this design? How much are these cars? Im not spending more than $25k for a glorified hatchback =/
Jaxxon the 2016 Tucson does look the same as this 2017. Shown here you are looking a roughly $35k, but this is the highest trim/options you can get. They start around $25k.
Thank you for the info. The Sportage sx top trim is the same price but I think this Hyundai is not worth $35k nope. That's BMW territory. This car has too many plastic pleather inside it's over priced in my opinion.
Dios es fiel y el seňor para el nada es imposible del el rregalarme un regalo como este y yo creo
Best review, really bad cameraman
what the hell is wrong with the cameraman? Can't he point the camera to the things you are touching and talking about instead of just keeping the same angle the whole fucking time?
I don't think there was a camera man. He was recording himself with a camera on a tripod.
How can even say that? can't u see the camera moving? Seriously dude! Look from 0.29 seconds
Sabrina Sabrina sabar
I noticed this is the second video that refers the vechicle to a car.
Montrer le plus beau
Great review but your camera person kept focusing on your face as you were talking about all the features and never zoomed in on what you were talking about.
Thanks Martin, we have addressed this in newer videos. Take a peek and let us know what you think!
My dad has this car lol. except it is 2018
Does this car have a cd player?
No :(
Grappone Automotive Group thanks
would have been good if Hyundai made it a V6 instead of a 4-cylinder
does the tucson use a CVT?
It does not use a CVT. There is a 6 speed automatic paired with the 2.0L engine, and a 7 speed dual-clutch automatic paired with the 1.6T.
Only the base SE has the 2.0L with the 6 speed auto transmission. The Eco, Sport & limited are outfitted with the 1.6T engine with the 7 speed dual clutch transmission. :)
what's the benefit of a 7 speed dual clutch transmission?
Quicker shifts than a conventional automatic allowing for improved fuel economy.
I was moments away from buying a 2017 Hyundai TUcson with DCT. The warning below from Rifleman542 that the dual-clutch-transmission (DCT) problem stopped the mistake I was about to make. Sounds like the DCT, without warning, can prevent the car from moving regardless of how hard you push on the gas pedal. That's sounds like a death trap. A little research shows that there is a class action lawsuit on Hyundai DCT.
The DCT problem is a huge problem. How come it is not mentioned in this review? Were you paid by Hyundai or Hyundai affiliates?
I'm sorry to hear that Riffleman542 scared you out of a truly great vehicle. It is true that the 2016 Tucson experienced issues with the software controlling the DCT transmission, but after a recall of 41,000 vehicles along with software updates, that issue has been rectified. The 2017 has not experienced this issue, so there was no need to mention it in this video. Also of note is that the Tuscon with the normally aspirated 2.0L engine has a conventional 6 speed automatic transmission with no known complaints. Hopefully you found another vehicle you love are are happy with - thanks for checking out our channel!
👍
Is the GPS already updated or will we be screwed by letting dealers to rip us off for $365.00?
Is transmission filter replaceable or they saying never need to be replaced, then after 100K, "Ma'am your transmission is defective?
angelisone I'm not sure I entirely understand your question regarding the GPS system. As for the transmission filter it is not replaceable. However Hyundai does recommend changing out the transmission fluid at the 75,000 mile service to keep everything in proper order.
I'm more interested in the engine, oil, transmission etc, cuz the stuff in the car doesn't cause the car to drive.
Just a suggestion to show more of the vehicle and less of you ... the interior shots need more focus on the car.
I agree with you. Thankfully we have been learning and made this change in newer videos!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏 I LOUW VOU HYUNDAI Tucson
The camera person seems more interested in you than the car
Good review! Well done! But get a new camera man. He doesn't even show us what your talking about most of the time.
These use to be so ugly. Now they are really nice inside and out.
I'm 6'4" 300#. What I feel like a sardine in a can in this car?
Rex, it's fair to say we have very different body types. This is a spacious little SUV though, I would go get in one and see what you think! Especially with the glass roof like this tester had, it feels much larger than it is. I think you'll be surprised!
Just bought this exact same model in the same color combo. I’m also a large guy like yourself, and fit very well inside. Surprisingly spacious!
Do not get the dual clutch transmission with the 1.6T turbo, I went through a lengthy battle to return the vehicle to Hyundai due to transmission heating problems and also jerky transmission response issue, just search google for "hyundai dual clutch transmission problems" , you have been warned
yup and I was hoping it was fixed in 2017
rifleman542 thanks man
if by all means you have decided to get the Tucson only, then go for the 2.0L EcoBoost which has the traditional 6-speed automatic transmission, but you'll get lower torque and HP and won't be much fun or peppy to drive
Hyundai did a recall to reprogram the transmission module.... if you bought your Tucson sometime after May or June of last year you should have gotten a notice in the mail.... or you can check in myhyundai.com (if you registered or your dealer helped you out)... log in and go down to the bottom of the page and look for a link labeled recalls. Enter your vin number in the box, do the robot security check and it will bring you to a page if you need to bring the vehicle in for service. The recall won't cost anything to you... but you will have to make an appointment though.
Gail Enrique I had performed that upgrade after visiting the dealership two times and I still continued to have the same problem of jerking and slipping transmission even after the upgrade.
ты такой маленький, зачем тебе такая большая машина?
get in the car and grab a burger or two.
how ridiculously slow is it compared to the fat ass 2017 Rav4?
The Tucson has two engine choices available, the 2.0 non-turbo and the 1.6T. The 1.6T (what I had in this video) is great on power with 201hp, it outshines the RAV4's 176hp no problem.
I see NO changes between 2016 & 2017 Limited, as shown here. No improvement in HP or fuel economy gains. No add'l bright work trim in the interior. In beige, it doesn't show as much, but look around the black interior & it appears stark black & low-rent. It's exactly the same as the '16. Disappointed here.
+Coupydog, I can see why in a video it would be difficult to tell the differences between a 2016 & 2017 as they are slight. The Limited offers Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay™. In the Sport the door panels now use soft touch materials on the upper and middle sections now whereas they were hard plastic previously. The premium Infinity® audio includes Cari-Fi™ Music restoration Technology. The rear seat air vents are now included on the Eco and Sport trims instead of exclusively in the Limited. Lastly the YES Essentials® stain resistant fabric is standard on all cloth interior colors. Keep in mind too that this Tucson was an entirely brand new vehicle for the 2016 model year so making improvements just one year in is actually quite significant. Hopefully that helps you out! If you get a chance to get into both a '16 & '17 to check out the differences, I recommend it. Thank you for watching our video!
Thank you for clarifying.. much appreciated.
You are very welcome
there doesn't need to be.
i like this vehicle but the inside looks out dated
Position of the camera is not good.
I want to see the car, not your face.
From 8:35 I see two poorly positioned cams.
One camera I see your face, and the other camera I see the street.
What camera do I see the car ????
The Hyundai SUV that I know is a gas-guzzling POS.
You are cute af.
