2023 Mazda CX-50

audio-system

THE CROSSBARS ADD TO THE LOOK HOWEVER, THE SOUND IT MAKES WHEN YOU DRIVE AT A CERTAIN MILE IS TERRIBLE.

but clarity and sound not great at low volumes.

Terrible AC system that can't keep up with 80F weather!

Don't love the audio and that's about it.

Outdated navigation and interactive system.

exterior

The exterior styling is the most stunting among all the competitions.

wheel

A note on the steering wheel, it feels fantastic.

The sand was unusually thick, so cars without AWD or 4 wheel drive we’re not able to enter the beach.

engine

The base engine is more than enough in city and highway driving.

I love the handling and power of the turbo engine.

Turbo mounted in the back - behind a motor, makes future service a headache and it makes engine bay super hot.

The turbo engine makes accelerating smooth, and before you know it, you are going 90, and it feels like 60.

Acceleration ok at best given engine size.

speed

Its a six speed automatic vs 8 speed or 10 speed like most others make these day.

Very noisy at highway speeds with the 20" wheels/tires.

Even at high speeds, this little truck eats up the curves like a more expensive luxury vehicle.

turn-handling

There were much less body roll when I was twisting and turning in city streets.

2023 Kia Seltos

As far as exterior and interior styling, I'm very pleased with the quality of the interior as well as the great touch points and an overall ergonomic design.

the plate frame and center hub rings on the wheels.

comfortable

I have a spinal injury and I find the seats and suspension to be very comfortable even over longer drives, and when you use the driver assist features even longer trips aren't as tiring.

With the turbo motor it has very good acceleration and decent gas mileage.

The engine puts out plenty of HP and torque to make the car responsive and it's quick which is very important when merging onto highways or general overtaking.

feature

2022 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid

gear

Reverse Gear warning sound - It is much too loud and sounds like a backhoe backing up.

but at times the transmission seems to shudder into 3rd or 4th gears and almost lurches the passengers forward for a half second, but it's not consistent enough to be checked by the dealership.

The only cons are at very low speeds and very light acceleration it sometimes hunts for the correct gear.

backing

The whole parking lot doesn't need to know I'm backing out of a parking spot.

radio

People complain about the piano black trim around the center (radio and HVAC controls)
I keep a microfiber in the center console, takes literally 30 seconds to wipe off any fingerprint smudges or dust.

Wish there were a spare tire and normal control knob for the radio.

phone

Occasionally won't connect to iPhone (but fixes itself the next time the car is restarted). 4.

Doesn’t remember what you use for phone or Bluetooth device if multiple devices are used.

Also on the base hybrid- heated seats, heated mirrors, all the safefy&#47;driving features, easy phone connectivity, power driver seat, 4 driving modes, low speed 4WD lock, automatic high beams that work great, tows small trailers with high MPG, 6 speed auto with paddle shifters.

Haven't been able to get Android Auto to work more than once, and dealer wasn't helpful in figuring out the issue.

From what I read the only real negatives should be the upgraded 10.25 touchscreen info system which will not have wireless apple Carplay&#47;Android Auto.

lights

I’m also having issues with the check engine light and the mechanics can’t figure out why.

Styling - especially the front daytime running lights 
2.

Putting signal lights at the lowest point on a vehicle is just asking for trouble.

Interior is amazing exterior styling is far above competition.

The first thing that caught my eye was the exterior, which is very forward thinking &#38; advanced.

The car is very comfortable, has great tech and safety features, and looks so stylish and sleek on the exterior.

I love the exterior design and interior seems well built with no rattles.

The new Tucson Hybrid AWD combines edgy exterior styling with high tech comfy interior design.

As some who uses the steering wheel controls, lack of a volume knob is a non-issue.

I can't believe how much I love my Tucson Hybrid, and here is something they don't talk about- the base "Blue" model comes with volume and temperature control 'knobs' (actually levers and wheels

I am really enjoying my new  Hyundai Tucson SE front wheel drive, it is so smooth on the road and really comfortable.

The car felt very stable cornering (sends power to rear wheels when cornering) even fully loaded.

but this is the most comfortable car we've ever had.

This car has more going for it in technology, comfort, and never feel a lack of power when needed.

Very comfortable, quiet, powerful and extremely attractive.

my family loves the styling , ride and comfort

Plenty of power, smooth ride, effortless to drive, and comfortable.

The interior is very comfortable &#38; with the Limited trim we also got the 10" screen.

Otherwise it is very comfortable and has a nice ride quality.

ride

The ride it great, very smooth on these horrible Louisiana roads.

This Tucson is a much smoother ride than my previous version, and it has the styling that turns heads.

I'm overall very happy &#38; look forward to several years with my new ride!

People have complemented its looks on several occasions and it's a comfortable ride.

but the rest of the SUV has made it a very enjoyable ride.

The safety features standard on the Limited are numerous and cost a extra on a lot of SUVs, even more expensive ones.

I use this feature when there’s a lot of rain as it gives me extra confidence against possible skidding.

The warranties are amazing as are the safety features and Hyundai's after sales support.

love all the safety features, the car almost drives itself.

Car drives nice and smooth, I just haven’t gotten 25 mpg yet, lots of very cool options

So many great standard features, it's hard to believe.

For the price, value, and especially the maintenance package and warranty, I would definitely do it all over again.

Have the SEL premium package gas Tucson since November and I love the interior features of the car!

Selected this over the RAV4 mainly for the technology, features, and design.

Wireless CarPlay and all convenience package features are worth it.

2022 Hyundai Tucson

Also, the gloss black is not a finger print problem any more than your phone or ipad. I can say more

While not having the radio, it affected Bluetooth, Siri etc.

There is this little noise coming from somewhere around the passenger side panoramic sun roof when starting forward or reverse and it sounds like something sliding back and forth in a metal channel.

noise

I have gone through 2 windshields due to rock chips cracking(hopefully just bad luck)

3 weeks since they "fixed" my car, it  has cutoff on me 3 times and has a hard knocking noise.

Also, the noises and beeps that the car makes are overwhelming.

At higher speeds it has more wind noise towards the rear

windshield

The materials in the cabin feel first rate, from the ridged volume and signal and wiper

brake

After vigorously stepping on the brake it started.

The auto hold feature, which allows the car to brake itself after stop without holding the brake pedal, was one I didn't think I would use.

This is my third Tucson and each generation keeps getting better. The exterior styling and interior comfort is exceptional; and the "Limited" trim has all the "bells & whistles."

It has the infotainment system with some control knobs and the hybrid is all wheel drive with a six speed automatic.

The vehicle handles well with the front wheel drive.

Ride comfort is very good, even with the 19” rims.

I believe that this Tucson has more tech, comfort and luxury than comparable cars costing 50% more.

Amazing gas mileage, comfortable ride, amazing new design.

Did a bit of customization and it's a great all year type ride

The touch screen, the digital dials and the quiet ride remind me of a Mercedes in a South Korean skin, with a much lower price.

of more concern, the audio affects all of the safety feature warnings.

Outstanding, loaded with great options, reliability record and can’t beat Hyundai warranty!

Many of the features have been great to use.

I love a lot of the features in this model.

A good idea in theory, BUT, this creates a dangerous issue if you are driving on a dark country road or on a main divided highway and your vision to the side is partially obscured by this feature.

button geari changes, but it seems to work
 it has a host of safety features that seem to work well .

2022 Hyundai Tucson Plug-In Hybrid

Also, the key on your phone will not work if you have an iPhone.

but I cannot use android auto google maps on full screen; for some reason, it shows a sidebar with the Android auto logo, which is a waste of screen space.

navigation

I also think the navigation and back up camera is not as good as the prius prime.

Try to use the map function and it would crash.

small-size

My main complaint for this model is the fuel tank, and if you are doing long-distance travel, you have to stop every 300 miles; it only holds 11 gallons, that's ridiculously small for an SUV.

For a 27k vehicle it has so much plastic that even a small light impact takes out the to low to the ground turn signals.

The biggest con is the small gas tank and range.

tank

Features, style, comfortable ride and performance.

2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz

port

Even using USB cable to connect Android Auto, the system has a hard time maintaining connection at 50&#37; of the time.

I was advised the items: tonneau cover, bed lights and electric cord in bed will take 3 to 4 months till dealers will be in stock. Bummer

heat/air-control

At night switch’s climate controls from whatever you have it set on to defrost and fogs windows up.

While driving the dual wet clutch transmission went into neutral while on a highway.

lane-assist

Even the SEL has electric seat adjustment, tilt steering wheel, heated seats, backup assistance, lane assist, blind spot and other alerts.

but the blind spot warning and various camera modes offset the issues.

child

Loved being the first to show this baby off.

I would never recommend it to a family with children.

Comfort and ease of use are far more important to me than swoopy stylish exteriors.

The exterior is awesome, very quirky, which I love.

The exterior of the vehicle is ahead of the game in my opinion.

They fit between the wheel wells and you can adjust the tailgate angle to the same level as the wheel wells.

Inside the cabin of the Santa Cruz makes you feel like you're behind the wheel of a full-sized Elantra or Santa Fe rather than the inside of an F-150.

This is nearly the quality, comfort and full performance value of a BMW or Audi - which I have owned the X3 and the Q5.

Very comfortable, great for my work purpose, wish it got better gas mileage.

I absolutely love it - it’s comfortable, handles well, the bed is really useful and the gas mileage is pretty good.

A recent 300 mile day trip confirmed that the seats are comfortable and well padded.

It drives like an SUV, it’s smooth, fairly quiet, and comfortable, and at the end of the day, I can haul most anything I need outside of professional construction equipment.

The car drives great and the comfort and concept of it are outstanding.

We love this trucklet, it's my wifes fav car ever, plenty of power and very comfy, low wind noise and bed comes in handy, mpg not super

it's very comfortable and with a power driver's seat & tilt/telescoping steering wheel you would have to be a one armed monkey if you can't find a sweet spot.

I’d love something a bit more rugged and fun to look at.

Fun to drive, the gas mileage is good at 25 MPG.

I've only had it just over a month, and it is just a fun, smooth riding little yard waste hauler.

It's fun and easy to drive and really turns heads.

It’s really fun to drive with tons of power, great handling and is super quiet.

but has a bed that's really useful for all the wet stuff when I go kayaking, as well as for other messy fun outdoor sports stuff.

With the 2.5L turbo, it’s got a ton of power and is really fun to drive on winding backroads.

Since I will not utilize the full capabilities of the Truck like features of the Maverick - I LOVE THE SC for the SUV qualities, along with the hard tonneau covered back truck bed; it's the "type" of vehicle I have been wanting for a long time ever since I visited Brazil and Colombia and witnessed the variety of small trucks in those 2 countries.

Overall, I don’t think there’s a more versatile option.

I'm now spoiled by the safety features and large touch screen.

All the goodies you can imagine and a great warranty.

Comes with all the tech and safety features I want and it's VERY well made.

I have the SEL which has all the features I need without overloading the vehicle or my ability to operate it safely.

Super comfort, nice features, the AWD-i system works nice on my everyday snow road… the bed isn’t huge,

The safety features are great and the truck bed is surprisingly useful despite its small size.

2022 Mazda CX-5

I myself prefer a touchscreen over the knob control and it does lack a hands-free lift gate and a real remote start (hate the app-only remote start!).

I got leather seats, AWD, blind spot monitoring and cross traffic warning, adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, heated seats, dual climate controls up front and leather wrapped steered no wheel and shifter all standard.

I believe the transmission gearing could and should be modified to accommodate the lack of horsepower, and the lack of horsepower and poor MPG experience are honestly my only complaints.

but definitly for me - Also , worth a second mention , most suvs in this catagory have CVT transmissions -  Continuously Variable Transmission -   in other words , it does not have stepped gears , its like stepping on a sponge , not crisp and they try to trick you with CVTs saying you can use it like a regular transmission -  bs &#47;.

I love the color, step in height, the look, the interior, the exterior.

Best and transmission is normal excellent interior is very luxury for the model, excellent quality interior and exterior, recommend for family small, motor is high performance in sport drive mode

The exterior (in my opinion) is two-fold.

Five months ago I leased my 2022 Mazda CX-5 Signature and what a great decision, the all wheel drive system is amazing and always on, the turbo engine has a lot of power, the soft Napa leather seats is a game changer along with the cooled/heated seats, steering wheel.

interior

The interior (white parchment) is very classy with plenty of accessories and features.

The interior is design and seating are sweet, the ride even and the handling are sweeter yet.

Love the red leather interior and all the options it came with.

Comfortable with a great interior and the driving experience is great.

The styling is excellent, the interior reminds me of an Acura or a Lexus, and the car is definitely a drivers car.

Very Happy with my recent purchase of my 2022 CX5 (preferred package).

I needed a reliable car, quality features and an overall highly functional car with the best  rating.

Also I love the auto start feature that lets me warm my car up on cold mornings.

Though it’s the base version standard AWD and safety features included are top notch.

Mazda has greatly improved this model in recent years with a better, quieter ride, more comfortable seating and better performance.

Decent ride and performance for a 4 cyl, compact SUV.

The handling &#38; ride is like an even higher class vehicle.

2022 Acura MDX

battery

I ended up disconnecting the battery to do a hard reset and it seemed to work fine after that.

Nothing would get it to open again except disconnecting the battery and trying again.

Aspec, SH-AWD: Engine is powerful enough to move the heavy SUV without problem
The transmission is doing well, especially after second gear; No gear changing feeling
Cabin is not on the quite or noisy side.

but it controls engine and wind noise so well that you hear a lot of droning tire noise which gets annoying.

Road noise and engine noise is also a bit louder that my Lexus.

The auto engine shut off is extremely annoying.

The exterior and interior design is so slick and sexy.

Exterior styling is great; interior is great as well.

From the exterior to the interior to the beautiful technology that now has been inputted, I feel lucky to be ‘driving the future’ in my 2022 black on black Acura MDX Advance Package car!

For &#36;62K the Advance package has even unusual extras like HUD, heated steering wheel,  driver-side seat memory, stay-in-lane-assist, 360 camera, panoramic sun-roof etc.

The interior is comfortable with great seats,

All the comfort and tech features work as advertised, the style and the interior 3 rows of seats are great.
