What Owners are Saying About the 2010 Hyundai Tucson

"Easy to get around"

"I wanted this car because it was smaller than an SUV and very easy to maneuver. I have leather interior and it looks sharp. Haven't had a days trouble and I bought it new. The only complaint is since it is smaller the person riding in the back seat feels more bumps because the seats sit near the wheels. I do love this car!"

"excellant value, front seats very comfortable"

"rear seats are a little too rigid for me. Excellent storage storage for rear area. Plenty of head room. Amazingly the acceleration on steep hills is very good. I also have a 2014 Toyota Sienna (V6) and the pick up speed in traffic and hills climbing is almost comparable in the Tucson (4)cylinder. Probably the best deal their is for a small SUV and so far it has been completely reliable. Lots of complements on the exterior looks and the red color is probably the best of any manufacturer."

"Best, most reliable car I've ever had."

"2012 Tucson GLS 2.4L. First, I want to explain why I didn't rate Quality a 4...it's just the quality of the interior plastics; the mechanical quality is great. I went from a BMW 330i 5-spd to this (bought it at 20,000 miles in 2013; now has 148,000) to the Tucson because I was tired of the expensive repair costs and having to add a quart of full synthetic oil every 400 miles in my BMW, and I had noticed the aesthetic of the Tucson (very nice!). The car is well laid out and easy to do basic maintenance like oil/filter change, air filter, battery (I replace batteries every 4 or 5 years...helps the life of the alternator), cabin air filter. No unexpected repairs all these years. It needs to last until my wife's car is paid off in 2024 (we like to have just 1 payment), but if it's still kicking, I may keep it longer! Some people complain about performance, and I know why...the transmission seems to be "asleep" sometimes, probably for fuel economy reasons. I just always drive in manual mode, as that's what I've been used to most of my life anyway. You can get some pretty awesome performance once you learn to trick the transmission to get quicker shifts too."
