2022 Hyundai TUCSON consumer reviews

Handles well The transmission is a joke Doesn’t no to upshift or down shift until your foot is almost too the floor Sport mode should be the normal mode an a upgrade from there Extremely disappointed with this lease Going to try to get out of it Only has 3875 mls on it Don’t waste your time with this vehicle Extremely under powered and the transmission has no clue what to do

While I gave the vehicle some low ratings, let’s understand why. It’s a great vehicle with more bells and whistles than more expensive SUVs. However after 600 miles all the audio stopped working. While not having the radio, it affected Bluetooth, Siri etc. of more concern, the audio affects all of the safety feature warnings. It also affects heated seats, cooling seats, no wireless charging, no usb charging. The dealer tells me the fix is a new monitor that affects all of the forementioned. The problem is the part is on back order with no anticipated date of shipment.

This is definitely a high tech car. The touch screen, the digital dials and the quiet ride remind me of a Mercedes in a South Korean skin, with a much lower price. Fun to drive and practical to have. Although you face the usual dealer premiums versus MSRP, Hyundai tries to keep premiums lower than its sister company Kia.

My 2022 Tucson limited was parked for a week. After a week I entered the car and tried to start the car. It would not start. After vigorously stepping on the brake it started. Drive to dealer. The battery was half charged after 2000 miles. Charged battery and drive home. Same thing happened again. Drive to dealer. They wanted to keep the Tucson for a week. Demanded a new car. I traded the Tucson for a 2022 sonata n line. So far, happy

We just bought this car and we love it! Manybof the advanced safety features come standard on the base level trim. We purchased an SEL trim with the standard engine. Some reviews said it was underpowered, but I have not had any issues getting up to highway speeds, or with stop and go city driving. True, it will not take off like a sports car, but it was never meant to be a sports car. The gas mileage is only a bit less than the Accent it replaced.

It was raining yesterday I was going between 35 or 40 mph I came across a puddle of water Got home and I notice something black hanging From the underside - it is more on the passenger side. It is definitely black plastic, though. Maybe 6-8 inches wide and the part that is hanging down is maybe 2 feet long. I never had this happen on any of my car I jut bought it two months ago my Hyunday Tucson Limited Sub 2022. I am very disappointed 😢 Now I have to make a appointment @ the dealer and it would take a few days to have car up and running again.

overall I am extremely happy with my Tuscon, great gas mileage even around town, 30mpg. very comfortable. still learning everything about it but love it

I have owned for 6 months/6K miles, it’s the SEL Convenience model with the 2.5. Power is acceptable and transmission is smooth. Ride comfort is very good, even with the 19” rims. Gas mileage is better than expected, my daily (mostly highway) commute averages around 28-29 mpg at 80-85 MPH. If I keep the speed close to 70 I average 33, which is excellent. Tech work flawlessly, safety systems are useful without being overbearing. The touch buttons take some getting used too, but are otherwise a non-issue. I have gone through 2 windshields due to rock chips cracking(hopefully just bad luck) but no other problems since. I lease a new SUV ever three years, last was an XC60, and this seems like just as quality of a vehicle. No regrets!

I have owned many cars including 7 BMW’s and Mercedes. I believe that this Tucson has more tech, comfort and luxury than comparable cars costing 50% more. I got the Limited loaded with everything including a tow hitch for under $40k. To get a GLC similarly equipped would be at least $60k. I cross shopped too many cars to list and settled on the Tucson. Here are the positives: 1. Cabin layout. Everything is visible, easy to reach, easy to see and comfortable from the driver’s position. Lots of cubby spaces that are useful. 2. Ride. Dampens bumps, feels like a car weighing twice as much and doesn’t have excessive body roll or lean. 3. Interior and exterior styling. The inside has lots of textures, not all one color very attractive. Looks luxury and ventilated seats feel luxury. Price that on a Mercedes. 4. Tech. It has all the stuff I love and the lane-keep is not intrusive, adaptive cruise, 360 camera and more are all winners. You pay a lot to get all that with some brands. 5. Quality. My Tucson has Michelin tires and I waxed it today and the exterior plastics, moldings and grill are absolutely solid, nice texture, good fit smartly designed. The end of the hatch is plastic covered which matches the rear bumper and prevents paint chips. Very smart. 6. Smart details. Back seats recline or go vertical for extra cargo space. Took a chair and more into to donate to ARC today. Easy to remove rear cover and fold down seats. Seats memorize your position and move back when you open door to make it easier to get out. None of my Mercedes did that, only my dad’s Lexus. Lots more little things. 7. Gas efficiency. Here are my last three outings done not with the car computer but by hand at fill ups and reading the odometer. 35.8mpg all highway (61 miles). 32.5mpg highway and mountain road tour (141 miles). 25.7mpg mostly city including stuck in traffic (236miles). 8. Quiet. It is amazingly quiet and I believe the front and side windows are acoustic but that is the hallmark of a luxury car. So easy to talk to my passengers or on the phone. Nearly silent like an EV at low speeds. Negatives: 1. Acceleration at start. I found pedal management to be key and cars.com got it right. However, it is not slow, just watch your speedometer and see. I plan to tow a teardrop camper and also a kayak trailer and I suspect I will like the gearing. I love that so many of them came with hitches as a proper SUV should and roof rails! Those are options on a Porsche. 2. The panorama roof makes for a low ceiling but at 5’10 I am fine. Honestly, I wish you could get cars without them but virtually all top models have them. I prefer solid roofs but it is beautiful when open so you may love it, especially I think if you have kids or passengers in the back a lot. Also, do not believe other reviewers including cars.com about the no-buttons console. It’s really easy because the controls are easy to see and understand. Seriously, how many buttons do you have on your ipad, phone or other electronics these days? You will not miss knobs a bit after a few drives. I have had knobs that are confusing like my Mercedes cursor and engine control knobs next to each other. They are not automatically better. Also, the gloss black is not a finger print problem any more than your phone or ipad. I can say more but I was close to getting a used Macan or new-ish GLC 300 w/hitches but when I considered premium gas, super high maintenance and repair bills (I speak from experience) and fear of something not under warranty breaking the new 5 yr bumper to bumper and ten year power train of Hyundai (plus three years maintenance!) put me over to the Tucson. Yeah, I don’t have the badge up front but driving is such a treat I find reasons to go places including just a drive in the mountains. My mom loved the mountain drive and others cannot believe how nice it is. So, if this is a size and capability you are considering for yourself do NOT miss out test driving and checking one out.

One of the best vehicles I have ever owned. This is my first Hyundai and I couldn’t be more pleased. The materials in the cabin feel first rate, from the ridged volume and signal and wiper buttons, to the dash itself. I have the SEL Hybrid Convenience package. It seems to be the sweet spot. It has the infotainment system with some control knobs and the hybrid is all wheel drive with a six speed automatic. It has lots of pep and I get anywhere from 32 mpg, all the way up to 41mpg. Also, I am a musician, so I appreciate good audio quality. The SEL uses the standard radio. I would find it hard to find a better sounding radio, even with the upgraded Limited ones. This is a far cry from the 2017 CRV I had before, which sounded awful compared to the Tuscon. I also carry my keyboard and speaker and other equipment with lots of room. In summary, if this vehicle stays as reliable and enjoyable in years to come, Hyundai has won a new fan!!
