Evo India is becoming more of a marketing tool / channel over an automotive journalism platform. Conveniently this video talks about all the good things about the car failing to highlight the multiple flaws and cost cuttings that Hyundai has done. The petrol variant is extremely underpowered with the torque and HP identical to the Alcazar (Tuscon LWB being the heavier one). Infact, Alcazar and Tuscon petrol models share a lot more in common than you'd like - The same engine, 6AT gearbox, tyres, infotainment section, Instrument cluster, and Bose audio system. But Tuscon is ~10L more on road for some gimmicky features, heated seats, slightly bigger dimensions, and ADAS features (the jury's still out on whether ADAS is a win in India or not). Additionally, a lot of features that make Tuscon an international best-seller haven't made it to India including the engine configs. Diesel is the more proportioned one of the two. But with the 10-year govt limit on Diesel cars, higher-priced diesel engines will furthermore, have a compromised resale value. The pricing is way off for the new Tuscon. This should have been 30L on road and that might have made it a hot seller. But with 35-40L on-road pricing, you can't overlook the vast corners Hyundai has cut on this car hoping that the 'international best seller' mark will make Indian buyers rush to this option. Question is (to Sirish's point) - Are Indian buyers really willing to accept whatever prices car makers slap on their cars?
@@fadilrahman2157 yes, for a 7 seater SUV, its more than adequate and none would use an Alcazar for drag racing. So i would not say the engine is under powered. But yes, a diesel is a diesel is a diesel.
@@mrigankb94 Period. And who would even think about a 3 star, so called 'SUV' with just 159HP, when we have our own beast with 2L TGDI mill, churning out 200HP
After driving it for around 25k miles for around a year and a half i think this is a really good SUV from hyundai. It's great looking in the night and one of the most comfortable drives in this price range.
Bro don't depend on features once you see the the Tucson then you will get to know that fit and finish and driving dynamics makes different from it's segment and Tucson is a sort of an European car and the 2.0 CRDi is the absolute rocket 🚀
@@Govardhangopal all that is fine but when you are ready to pay that much you expect basic features which the brand offers in their much much cheaper Cars..
@@amansharma4762 Now typical indians will think low mileage, overpriced, looks soo bad, not much features that's why our indians are lacking enthusiasm about Cars and bikes where the other countries has I will suggest some points before buying the car 1. Build Quality 2. Fit and Finish of the Panel gaps and Interior 3. Performance of the engine 4. Safety features 5. Driving Dynamics 6. Brakes 7. Steering feel and feedback 8. Handling 9. High Speed Stability 10. Customer satisfaction in showroom This is what the real car guy should think atleast think these points before buying the car and bike
It's Diesel Variant drives as Plush as a Deisel Merc or or a Diesel Bmw ..... The 8 speed Transmission , the Power , The Refinement . The Features, almost at 38 % Less Cost
It's May 24 , The Tucson sold 201 units in April 24, Shows that Indian car buyer still is focused on "Kitna Deti hai" , " Kya features hai" than a solid engineered, well build car like the Tucson
Simple...there is no comparison. Tata still has to work a lot on it's build quality. Tucson is miles ahead both in terms of drive quality, features, handling & is overall a much more premium car!
I just booked Hyundai Tucson Signature Diesel (2WD) Black Color yesterday… delivery is next week… Was very confused between Black & Amazon Grey color bcoz Amazon Grey color looks too good in videos but I didn’t liked it in real life… So booked the BLACK color 😅 Excited…!! ❤❤❤
Seen all Tucson reviews and everyone looks so stressed and forced to review. Its also like they have categorically told what to say and what not to. Like the same guys gave Citroen C 5 so much of love. The Tucson looks really overpriced though just for the lights and tech do-not expect Hyundai buyers to spend nearly 18 lakhs more.
Just booked a Tucson as a replacement for our old X3 after test driving the new X1, GLA, and a Q3. Tucson punches much above its weight. This is also considering we have a 1st generation Creta already, doesnt feel cheap at all and is a premium quality offering from Hyundai.
Hey Evo team , First of all your videos are top notch , the way you guys tell in detail every aspect is really cool !! But hey you know what , have you guys given a thought about opening up a Travel channel !! :) Because your locations are so beautiful and for a moment we all think that you have taken up the cars abroad to shoot !! Even in this Tucson shoot , Sirish and team has chosen a mind blowing location !! Harshwardhan Pune
My Hyundai venue have wireless Android auto and apple car play . I believe Tucson too have . You just need to switch on wifi , Bluetooth on your phone and engage hand brake to add new phone to apple car play or Android auto. That's how it's works and it's wireless
It needs Petrol Hybrid Like they have offering in North America and cost is also really cheap like approx. 35 Lack INR Top Trim on Road. and mileage is also 15-17 km/ltr Petrol Hybrid. India needs Hybrids cars as they are the need for now but due to government polices and extremely high taxes sadly India does not have much of hybrid on offer now.
You talk about sunvisors....why not elaborate more on more noteworthy specs....like ground clearance, boot space etc....these are of crucial importance in the Indian context.

In design Hyundai have nailed this car but in engine department the petrol is extremely underpowered considering this car would weigh atleast 1.7 tonnes
Starting 4th generation Tucson at price of 27.7 Lakh hyundai created vacuum Hyundai's car range in price segment of 22-27L which was previously covered by 3rd generation Tucson previously.....This over pricing has made it out of reach of many potential buyers.... Hyundai can increase Tucson's sales figures upto 1000-1500/month from there expected target of 5000/year, by doing just 3 changes in its Platinum petrol variant... 1. Giving option of manual transmission 2. Adding ventilated seats along with window curtains. 3. Last and most important... @ starting price of 23-24 Lakhs(Ex-showroom).... Bur I fear if they do all these changes in Tucson, Hyundai may not be able to meet out increase demand because of it's CKD production....
Can you answer these questions? when the onroad cost is above 30L for both petrol and diesel, why are they not providing the paddle shifters, why there is no C port charger, and why there are no sun blinds? this car is too rich in pricing. looks overpriced.
