1.Thanks for making videos! 2.Tucson 3.Yay!

Compare the hybrid versions in the highest trim

You have to do a comparison of the Elantra and the new Civic when it goes on sail. The Elantra looked great and the Civic looks like it has a chance of actually taking the crown from the Elantra. Just a comparison I think is exciting.

@@calebharper1590 Civic doesn't have a chance. Even with the new re-design, it stills fall behind with the tech. And you only get wireless Apple Carplay/Android Auto on the Touring top trim. Elantra offers that standard. And Elantra still outshines with rear seat legroom by a hair.

Y’all welcome!! I would choose the Hyundai Tucson!!!

I agree with you. Hyundai seems to offer a lot more for the money - and their quality is excellent these days

Agreed, Hyundai is awesome nowadays and they offer alot more than other brands.

I bought a new Tucson 2022 too, I love it!

Definitely a great vehicle for the money 👍

​@@mjdedge3440 Let me know how you feel after you pay for the service, when your Injectors have the carbon build up (GDi) As they make u pay for the cleanup during service 2 or 3. lol

Do you still like it? What's the engine, and what's it like? I was considering a kona as well. Haven't test drove one yet.

I think everybody has to keep in mind that the RAV4 is more of a rugged-type vehicle whereas the new Hyundai Tucson is more luxurious

You are both so right! I guess it depends on the client which aspect is more desired.

@@eleanormassaro5195 If you want a real rugged SUV, you should go for the Ford Bronco Sports, not a RAV4 which is not even a serious off-roader.

@@jillthompson6110 ford bronco is a ford escape, ford escape is in the same segment rav4 is

@@feraligatorh0328 Ford Bronco Sport has the same engine and shares the same underpinnings with the Escape, but it's not the same car. The Bronco is designed to be a more serious off-roader than the Escape. The Escape is a soft off-roader like the RAV4.

Me too. I really like the look of it and will seriously consider it.

they had brother Seltos to eat them alive with good msrp if the "overall size" isnt the issue. hyundai always had the charms within 2022 now finally has the appeal for the general.

Did you get it? How are you liking it so far?

The RAV4 will be on the road longer than the Tucson.

@@thundergato84 a tucson will last 6 years easily and lets be honest most people don't keep a car for over 6 years

Korean cars have serious issues. Unwanted braking....excessive oil consumption and engine failures.

@@adilsagadiyev5090 Not if the engine catches on fire first.

@@mikefoehr235 10 years ago, you forgot to say 10-20 years ago

Toyota's are built to last but I think Hyundai deserves more credit. I've had 2 Hyundai's within the last 25 years that took me to 160K with no issues. I'm currently in a Hyundai with 180K with no major repairs nor signs of slowing down.

Glad you enjoyed the video! We make comparisons every couple weeks so make sure to subscribe if you want to see more 😁

But it old, it already 2 years old . The Tucson is 2022

T The Tucson looks old too

@@bradleydobbins6579 their Tucson is very dirty as well. Idk what “old” looks like to you all but both of these cars look pretty new to me

This is what people said ten years ago. Now look at how far Kia/ Hyundai has come in recent years. It is true Hyundai is not more reliable than Toyota but they are more reliable than people still think. If not they won't dare to offer the 10 yr/ 100K miles warranty. Yes I drive a fully loaded 2015 Hyundai Sonata (Sport limited) that puts a fully loaded 2015 Camry into shame, especially the interior quality- design language and fit & finish. This is just my opinion. I respect your opinion.

@@knightky007 I know many Hyundai owners with horror stories about the 10 year warranty. They tried to get their car repaired using warranty and the dealership kept denying them, telling them that they didn't proper maintenance and can't replicate the problem.

@@braetonwilson4296 that is the problem with the dealerships, not the brand. I have heard similar stories with other brands even Toyota. Maybe, it is me having good luck with Hyundai and the dealerships I've been going to! Knocking on wood!! When I bought my car it was pre-owned with 23.5K miles therefore it was qualified for only 5 yrs/ 60K miles instead. My car needed two minor repairs which were covered under the warranty. Each repair was done by two different Hyundai dealerships in two different states of CA and AL. The repairs were honored- both parts and labor- no questions asked! Bently Hyundai in Northern AL is the best car dealer I have ever experienced. Their customer reviews won't lie- 4.8 stars! They make me feel like I want to buy only Hyundai in the future. I had a similar experience with a Hyundai dealer in Riverside, Southern CA where I lived before. Now I'm hesitant to buy a different brand because I'm afraid to deal with a dealer from another brand.

@@knightky007 exactly! Like my issue with my xse hybrid tank! They fucked with me for a year doing small bullshit repairs when the thing that needed to be done was CHANGE THE TANK. Toyota is dog shit

True and proven!!For me design is only secondary!I don’t need a car that give me a headache after a year.

please don't mention wife when talking about car.

@@andriyatomick9732 Sorry, freedom of speech allows me to in context with facts about story.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!

For my opinion the new rav4 looks way sharper and better and it’s ride quality is smoother then the Tucson.

@Ululu Kululu huh

@@GhhostTV2712 Sharper? I think you need a different adjective. It looks traditional. The Rav 4 has a lot going for it, looks isn't one of them. The displays are dated. Toyota and Honda are only relying on brand recognition now. Not forward thinking design nor options. Shameful.

@@andrewhite4431 it looks like a car bro, Tucson is trying to be different and it just looks weird and looks like they are trying to force futuristic with modern day cars

Happy Sunday! Thank you!

Yes 🙌🏼

Me too

Definitely interested in that video

Agree

Yes

I agree with you Dave, that is one of the reason I went for sel convenience , i had to compromise on rain sensing wiper feature but then that ia fine I feel

Glad to help!

How's your Tuscon holding up? It's my 1st choice, but I'm concerned about reliability given the numerous recalls in the past.

Agreed. I couldn’t believe how cramped the RAV4 feels. It’s a very poor design.

@@logicwins3492 Reliability has been great. Still enjoying and trusting it daily.

At least you have one of those options! Here in Australia we have neither :(

@@shaddolf6662 Bummer

Yeah, Toyota is really shooting itself in the foot with the lack of availability of the RAV4 prime🤷‍♀️

Let me know what you think of it Ralph after driving it for a few days. Auckland. NZ

@@johnmartin7158 does NZ get the tucson hybrid?

Glad we could help! Thanks for watching!

Do Tesla buyers say the same? How about the iPhone first came out to change the game??

I've had my tucson hybrid convenience package for 24 hors and I've got roller-coaster for volume and tuning and some other buttons beyond the touch screen knobs. Could have done without though.

For sure especially when they catch fire. Make sure you park it outside

So many comments like this. Does anybody not use the volume buttons on the steering wheel anymore?

You got it already to know is a “great” car?

Let me know how you feel after you pay for the service, when your Injectors have the carbon build up (GDi) As they make u pay for the cleanup during service 2 or 3. lol

@@619denz or like toyota making you pay for fuel tank issues with the rav4 and lying to you about having a 14.5 fuel tank size but only being able to fill up at 9. While people are fucking their cars up trying to add more fuel

@@Whileweweresinners That problem was found on Hybrids. To be honest if that was my car, i already make enough re-generative charge power. which makes up for the less tank. I have personally seen my friends Rav4 give abt 200+ Kms than the gas model. So the 5.5 shortage is made up. Its bad they had to do that. But Man, Hyundai, Kia and Fords - If you own 1 since 2014 , good luck buddy (To you and your $$)

@@619denz like your own comments to make you feel better but I've owned a hyundai for 8 years with no issues and modded to hell. I've also owned a 2020 Honda civic si that failed me with oil in the engine with 7k miles. So stop just riding japan so hard they have small pee pees anyways

If you planning on keeping it yeah. But once you go to sell it lol.. it won’t hold value as well. Also both are good vehicles and are marketing towards different people. Rav4 more rugged and Hyundai bit more luxury.

@@zerokool-2058 personally I think the Hyundai looks ugly. The Toyota looks handsome. I would choose the rav4 Because I’ll be looking at the exterior every day

The only thing that could interfere my hypothesis (in the noise sensation through the video) is that you are actually using some audio compressor plugin for your video edition... but anyways would be the same for both shots

Dont forget to look under the hood. Let me know how you feel after you pay for the service, when your Injectors have the carbon build up (GDi) As they make u pay for the cleanup during service 2 or 3. lol The joke is going to be on you and not to forget, the resale value

@@619denz thanks for telling us what must have been your experience with Hyundai. I didn't buy one, never owned one and I'm not in the market for a one. NO JOKE on me at all... I buy much nicer cars then these for personal use. Was only at the dealership helping a friend out. I'll tell you what though, comments like yours help make this world what it has become... Thanks for that. You don't know me and I don't want to know you. Maybe a little more constructive next time?

They are here now, I got one last week in New Port Richey, Fl.

Thanks, glad you liked the video!

@@CarConfections not sure about the lack of a spare tire.

@@Theoriginalborgy in the USA has a spare

The Tucson drives better than any competitor in the class. This has been true for the last 4 years. As in regards for trim quality, the 2022 wins by far from any of the competitors in the class. If you want anything better than this you will have to go for the premium brands that cost a lot more.

What kind of Tucson did you go with?

@@ciarafoster8138 the ultimate trim line.

True, but I believe Hyundai's/Kia's r ever so slowly closing the gap! Toyotas & Hondas r getting way to expensive, Hyundai's & Kia's are great alternatives especially considering they offer a better warranty.

@@arrogen2831 Love the Blazer, want one so bad!!

So how about that Toyota? www.businessinsider.com/toyota-rav4-engine-fire-investigation-nhtsa-2021-3

Very valid point!

Glad you enjoyed and have a great week! 😁

Make sure to try filling up your tank all the way. Cause if it's a hybrid they are all broken. 14.5 you will never get more like 9. Toyota has terrible customer service btw.

Make sure you park it outside lol

What about the toyota reliability and long last with minimum maintenance, superior resale value in 5 years your RAV4 will cost double than Tucson, the trick is if you want car that will serve you forever with minimum headache or shiny box with crappier quality that will start breaking down and cost a fortune .... Toyota always wins on long run

Oh really? We didn't notice that. Odd 🤔

@@CarConfections Yeah, when I went to try to build a Tucson hybrid on the website the color choices are not the same except for the silver and the gray and the white. There is a darker blue color, no red color😞

@@eleanormassaro5195 Color choices are exactly the same on the Canadian site. Red is available.

@@MrBobhell Unfortunately, in the US you don’t get the nice brighter colors for the Hybrid😕

🤔

Who keeps the same car for 200k miles anyway? It's dumb af since it'll depreciate like shit and be outdated, if ur the first owner of the car don't keep it for longer than 100k miles so that once u sell it u will get a good price for it

@@tutigseg I ate my words and went with the Tuscon, I love it so far.

@@Rheisler1475 well congrats then u made a very good choice 👌

@@tutigseg thanks mate

Right. Even BMW models got fired. Fyi, The engine problems was related to previous generation. Not this one.

I agree here. I definitely think Honda and Toyota need to up their game if they are gonna be able to compete with Hyundai and Kia. The koreans are proving you can have premium quality for the price

@kev j you live in a parallel universe my friend. Because of people like you they keep their cars outdated and the same for several years. “They got nothing to worry about” yeah right, you literally get double the value with a Hyundai versus a Toyota yet people still hide behind the “reliability” bullshit which makes no sense since every single Hyundai comes with the 10 year 100k warranty, and anybody that can afford a new car is not going to keep a car more than 4 years. So yeah, parallel universe, keep getting ripped off my friend

@kev j They have everything to worry about

@kev j Hyundai already outsells Honda globally.

@kev j keep on holding on to that torch till it burns your arm off. Everyone else is moving on to better things.

It sounds like you wanted the Limited trim. The steering wheel on the limited has mute and volume buttons. Sirius is there, as well.

These toyora fanboys are more worst than these Biden supporters

Koreans have always been killing it with technology. Just ask Samsung

I understood the car puns in this comment. This is comedy gold

@@BlitzStudiosIsinsideyourhome The Galaxy Note that blew up matches the Hyundai/Kia engines catching fire 💀💀💀

I think the opposite is true. Naturally aspirated engines are much more reliable and longer lasting. If you are leasing sure go for it, but I prefer to get as much use out of my vehicles as possible.

True , i am delaying my purchase also. Get That crazy inflation down. Strategy pushes me to buy the rav4trail or lease for 3 years then buy tucson phev expected hold deposit for 2.5 years ie ich march 2025 or later if i choose. All tucsons tow 3500pds only rav4trail does. Better resale value, so endure good and bad r4t for 3 y lease. But we like both looks, especialy white with black contrasts. R4t Wood adventury look, tucson city luxurious look. But from a performance aspect tests against many other suvs, tucson succeeded in the climb, check it out on youtube.
