You mean CX-5

I bought a Honda Rav4

@@hamidmghazi lol

Thank you! We appreciate that!

Thanks, glad it was helpful!

Thanks for the kind words! 😁 We appreciate it!

How you ever seen an actual car review?

Ighhh

Putting a down payment only lowers your payment by $16 every 1k! But do you boo

I wouldn’t focus too hard on monthly payments unless you are living paycheck to paycheck-in that case then looking to upgrade if your current rides are perfectly fine should be the least of your concerns. When shopping around vehicles, you want to focus on getting as close to if not below MSRP as your principle payment. You should pay most attention to this and the gross total payment after interest.

Thanks! We will definitely cover some more segments for you guys!

Thanks!

Our pleasure! Thanks for watching!

Congrats on your new Sportage!

Thanks! 😄

You're welcome! Glad to help!

Thanks and congrats on your new Rogue!

Agree with the mazda

I’m thinking of buying a 2017 Mazda CX-9 Signature which I believe has the turbo. Is there an issue with the turbo engines?

@@WhereisHammer, The longest lasting engines are made by Toyota, Honda, Mazda, and Subaru. Their engines routinely exceed 100k miles with meticulous upkeep and maintenance. All engines pressurized by turbos wear quicker and fail sooner, no matter who makes them. Avoid turbos on any vehicle purchased new with the intent of owning for 100k miles or over 8 years old.

@@reaality3860 great information , thank you for sharing ! I will be sure to keep this in mind 👍🏼

@@reaality3860 you mentioned Subaru , how do you feel about the CVT engines they use? I’m looking into a Forrester as well

good for you my honda dealer wanted $4K+ over list

Does Kia teach their salespeople to be arrogant? The one we spoke with was so horrible- wanting 12% over MSRP and extra charges if we bought off the lot bc of “convenience” I was instantly turned off by them and reserved a new Honda instead at MSRP! I did have to get 4 out-the-door quotes to find one who didn’t add unnecessary fees though. But, the Honda salespeople compared to the Kia ones were like day and night. Kia sales guy was telling me how unreliable Honda is and I drive up in my 14 year old CR-V that’s had zero drivetrain issues. I had to replace the motor in my wipers but I live in Seattle-rain city! Otherwise any issue I’ve had had no effect of the safety or ability to drive the car.

@@brookebock4355 huh that wasnt my experience with kia but they had very few cars I think the only ones they were adding a market adjustment to was the hybreds the only other market adjust I saw came from honda PS I am still carless

Same story for me as well. After 5 unsuccessful negotiations with the Tuscon Hybrid (due to markups and added stuff), I got lucky with a CR-V Hybrid Sport just $600 under MSRP. Although it does not have as many bells and whistles as the Tuscon for the money (ref: MSRP), I bought it for its space, predictable handling and comfort. Dealer was reasonable, so i was happy to oblige. I refuse to pay markup. I'm not that desperate.

Thank you!

I agree!

A Rav4 is also better in the long run. Sure it may lag behind in features and somewhat in engine refinement but what matters in the long run is safely reaching Your destination in time.

How long you wann go?? In the moon

@@ajittamangofficial3830 Yessir!

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

How much did you paid for and delivery timelines?

I think it’s a safety issue. That’s never coming back

The RAV4 does have touchscreens. All vehicles in this compact SUV segment have touchscreens except the Mazda CX-5, and the CX-50 has limited touchscreen functionality.

Those are all compact. Not midsize

@Tyt Xlx you probably haven’t seen their latest interiors. The only old interiors are the Tacoma and 4Runner.

do you know any sites that address realabilty over 10 years I believe consumer reports only address 3 years of reliability

Exactly. Reliability and reselling may be missing here. Anyway, great review. Thanks!

Awesome! Glad you enjoyed the countdown 👍

They’re motors like to go out.

It should be since it's new. But hey, it is what it is. I hope the sportage takes the tucson spot.

Cool! Does it have more horsepower and torque?

Yes, 2023 has 23 more horses and 49 more lb-ft of torque compared to 2022.

CX-50 had a panoramic moonroof option and it has touchscreen when it’s on apple play or android connect or you can use the knob.

Happy Saturday now! 😎

@@CarConfections Yup!

How much was price?

RIP

Gotta lease em

Hyundai and Kia is not reliable anyway, Japanese cars are

Thanks!

Agree both ugly cars crv best looking

You're welcome! We appreciate the kind words!

You're welcome! Great minds think alike, as they say 😂

Congrats on your new fixer-upper.

@@hypnotoad8871 And by that you mean?

@@CarConfections BTW, I ended up getting a 2024 Kia Seltos. I LOVE this vehicle. I haven't discovered yet all the cool things this vehicle is loaded with. One thing I discovered without trying to; if you don't signal when about to change the lane, not only it beeps on you, but it pulls the wheel back thinking you drifted unintentionally. That was a bit freaky first time it happened. Now it makes me laugh.

@@Gabriela111moneysolutions The Seltos is an amazing vehicle. Congratulations!

Dynamic driving only shows when you constantly drive faster than allowed. Even on small and twitchy roads every modern car behaves pretty well when kept within the speed limit. I own a Tucson for 1 year now and it handles fine. Never needed more direct steering or better suspension. Most car reviewers are racing wannabees anyway.

I never understand the fascination with Mazda either. I rented a CX-9 last summer and it was awful in terms of the interior. It was very cramped because of the monstrous center console and the armrest was hard as a rock. The CX-50 looks pretty nice though on the exterior.

You haven’t driven them. But you seem to know about comfort? Funny fool.

Those are both piles of crap

No offense, but those are both absolutely horrendous.

Why

Why is the screen so small though

​@@SeekrofTruth25screen is just right because you don't have to touch the screen the wheel on the gear area you rotate to .do it.

​@SeekrofTruth25 this is subjective, but you don't need a touch screen and having big screens are counter intuitive to driving.

Yep the Nissan CVT transmissions are garbage, mine was taken care of and still went out at 62,000 miles!

Reliability and resell value is everything for 86% of Americans. This is why you buy a Honda or Toyota suv in America

@@BrandonD Meanwhile both of their sales are declining each year. Hyundai tucson is doing great in sales and KIA sportage is starting to catch up as well.

@@MrSupernova111 Toyota fanboy hurt. LMAO

@@maga6319 like anything in life you get what you pay for and inflation is real. I’d rather pay more and avoid the dealership with warranty issues😅.

Car reviewers and journalists do not really incorporate reliability or resale into their reviews. That’s basically always been a standard thing. If you want to look that up, there are other videos that have different missions.

You are absolutely RIGHT

Reliability doesn’t mean much if you aren’t in love with what you are purchasing. Meanwhile you would be admiring everyone else’s vehicle on the road that is more eye catching. Aesthetics and tech do matter.

A vehicle is NOT an investment. Factoring in what a vehicle will be worth in 3-5 years into the decision making process is absurd.

@@Ricky-mo6mv you saying cars hold the same value regardless of maker?

@@bluesdemitra38 No, I just can’t imagine buying a vehicle based on what it’s “worth” when you try to get rid of it. Unless you plan on doing a private sale (good luck with that) it’s not going to amount to any significant difference as a trade in regardless. Vehicles of any make aren’t a good investment, as I’m sure you know. I would always just recommend people buy what makes them happy rather than what happens when it’s gone. Life is too short to live like that.

@@Ricky-mo6mv well yes it’s certainly a possibility I’ll buy this car at the end of the lease and in that case the Honda name and reputation will yield a greater return if I sell down the line. And like I said, Kias are no longer the economical option with dealers jacking up prices for no reason besides demand. Paying for hype ain’t smart!

@@bluesdemitra38 Yeah. KIA sales departments suck the big one, but they do have amazing looking vehicles. I will say the service department was spectacular though. I actually had a KIA Seltos lease from back in 2021- it was to be 4 years. After hearing about people trading in leases early, or selling their vehicles in these times for increased value, I decided to see what Hyundai would do for me this past July in buying out my lease. The value of my Seltos went up from what it should have been, so I made out really well at Hyundai on the last day of the month. With the equity in my Seltos, they marked down my $40,000 Tucson Limited to about $33,00 and I didn’t need a down payment. The Seltos SX was rock solid, and I was only going to part with it for a huge deal. I wanted the Tucson mainly for the extra room in the back seat, and I fell in love with the exterior and interior of the Tucson. So far so good! I’m just giving you sh*t. Out of the compact SUV competition, I do like the current CR-V, as they have come a long way in the design/looks department. I bet that sport trim looks nice with the blacked out wheels!

You should be. It will likely last more than 50k miles.

Until the newness wears off and you realize you spent all that money on a vehicle that already looks outdated.

last for 50k miles? I don’t think so. should be more than that

@@Ricky-mo6mv the important thing is. it gives me happiness by riding on it and it gives me pride. i can just trade it in with a good value after 4 years if i want to :D

@@enriquejamesd.martin7117 Well that’s good. What’s most important is that it makes you happy 😊

If you watch the Full Reviews that correspond to each of these crossovers, that is discussed and visualized I believe in the way you want to see it. 5'8" and 5'9", by the way.

Hater

@@ELP1125 I am one of the biggest kia and Hyundai supporters. The last 5 cars Ive leased have all been Korean. They deserve every award and I always keep them in my top 5 for recommendations.

@@ELP1125 I had a Kia and my engine blew up after 40k miles leaving my family stranded in a highway. Am I a hater? No they are terrible vehicles

​@@GoOp790its really weird that after the single theta engine had problems in US only and only in us is this version, everytime a hater comments in Hyundai videos is referring to this single problem i believe you talking bs and you never had hyundai or kia hyundai and kias are maybe the most reliable in par with Toyota. Also saying that rav4 is more reliable is totally fake and bs again check the recalls and destroyed engines of rav4 you re uninformed and a liar.

Be glad you go the Rav4. Hyundai's and Kia's are notoriously unreliable garbage and Hyundai dealers in particular are difficult to deal with.

​@@hypnotoad8871proof?

@@hypnotoad8871I have driven Kia for 12 years. I’ve had ZERO problems. Not one trip to service ever!

so are the hyundai/kia but people are still dropping their vehicle off for recall work and engine problems

Already numerous recalls on latest Kia Sportage. Just buy a Toyota or Honda.

THIS! Most car reviewers don't talk about reliability and hyundai/kia have so much safety concerns now. Like you couldn't pay me to drive one. I personally know 3 people that have failed engines with less than 50k miles on them. Definitely not okay. We just got a 2023 crv and it has everything I could want on it and I didn't have to pay 8k in markup (like hyundai/kia in my area). The pano sunroof does nothing for me as well as the 360 camera and that's pretty much all it doesn't have, we'll besides a heated stearing wheel, but we can put one in with no big deal. The only reason I didn't go with the rav was I hate the interior and I feel like everyone drives one, so I wanted something different. Honda has never let me down.

People are sold on flash not quality.... Most people are want want want and only think short term. NOBODY WILL EVER ADMIT THEY MADE A WRONG DECISION SO THEY KEEP JUSTIFYING THEIR CRAP CHOICES

@@alisafowler8294 my mom and sister both have 2020 hyundai elantras both with around or over 40k miles and have had 0 problems so far

The sportage is not on that list its the Sorento and the bigger hyundai model. All of these brands have had similar issues in the past as well

Me too! Any luck on getting one?

@@deegee3265 None whatsoever. Perhaps if I offered to pay 5k over MSRP, but if I did that I'd be forced to relinquish my Asian card.

@@Briguy1027 lmfao! That’s hilarious. I negotiated from $4 to $2k markup, but I left work too late and it sold. Might just get a 2023 Tiguan R-line. $34k out the door, $500 discount. Tired of waiting for this damn Kia man.

@@deegee3265 This patient Chinaman is gonna keep on waiting. I want to save money on gas -- yes the VW is a nice car, even the Nissan Rogue with the 3 cylinder turbo is pretty cool, but the KIA gives you much better city mileage and all sorts o' doodads for less money -- unless there's a giant markup. I just know that one day the supply will go up, I hope. They have a boatload o' LX models now but I really want an SX Prestige because it gets super hot here in LA and if I have to get black seats I'd like them to be ventilated. Finding the blue and gray interior is almost impossible as most are black for some reason.

@@Briguy1027 I’m in the bay area; we’re in the same boat. I wish you all the luck man. U think you are going to have to pay a markup if you want it. Try to negotiate $2-$3k and just do it man.

Looked like a 2023. I believe they were using a Limited Hybrid. According to images on Toyota's website, the 2022 has a hybrid badge just in front of the driver side mirror, the 2023 does not - the one in the video did not have it.

fake news guy.

@@maga6319 so hyundai and kia are very reliable cars just like japanese cars?

@@donvarcivil941 how long have you've been listening to fake news dude?

@MAGA for few months, I seen lots of them on the road

@@donvarcivil941 Hyundai and KIA is the new toyota and honda.

Once we get to drive and extensively test one out, then we will have some thoughts. But for now, we only sat in one and liked the design inside and out👍

Ride quality in the Sportage and Tucson is second to none. The acceleration isn’t amazing but it’s not problematic either.

Still best selling

​@James Humphrey McDonald's sell alot of burgers. Doesn't mean they are good.

@@wickedroller that’s a terrible analogy, why would people buy burgers on mass if they didn’t like them. 😂😂

Had Hyundai for 15 yrs. Sonota had over 320,000km not a problem, daughter 2010 tucson 120,000 km no issues and wife and daughter both got 2017 Tucson, 107,000km and 141,000km not a problem. Guess you're not that advised

@@gordmonteath6090 Guess you got lucky, most of those have been recalled a couple times for engine replacements.

@@mitchellc2723 thanks. What engine is giving them all the trouble? Both wife and daughter have the 1.6 liter turbo in 2017's
