Used 2015 Hyundai Tucson Consumer Reviews

10 years and running strong

I bought this car in 2016 February against the advise of many friends who advised to go for the RAV4 or Honda CRV. Was very skeptical but the car has proved me wrong. Tried to sell it last year to upgrade and my mechanic friend was furious for trying to replace such a low maintenance high performance car. To be brief Pros: Very low fuel consumption, Very low maintenance. Had only regular oil, filter changes and tire change (after 7 years) It only started giving trouble when I had it parked during the Covid lockdown. But once I got it full serviced has been a faithful companion. Cons: Expensive genuine spares, 2.0L engine not good enough in Kuwait Summer 120F, slow acceleration on the 2.0L (which is good for me as I trend to accelerate without even knowing it). Just upgraded the infotainment for a touchscreen and can still reach 140kmph after 10 great years. Go for the 2.4L minimum or go for the Santa Fe. My next car will surely be a Hyundai or a Kia, but keeping this one until it starts giving more frequent trouble. Been in 3 accidents every time other driver fault and got police reports to prove. The car took the brunt and not a scratch on me. Took it to the garage and asked them to get it fixed whatever the cost. The Toyota HiAce who made a sudden U turn got its door bashed in and thankfully my car was below 15kmph else the Toyota would have flipped over.
