2022 Hyundai Tucson

phone

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

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.

radio

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.

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.

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.

responsiveness

This vehicle bought for my wife, this vehicle is awesome so smooth quiet quick response when hitting gas ally the options u can ever want even panoramic roof my wife is so in love with it she’s had Murano and 3 rav4”s in the past she’s like a kid with new toy she is so happy

turn-handling

After going back and forth a lot of times the service department got the light to turn off resetting everything.

but so far can handle the Wisconsin winter.

This one handles great in all weather types.

Headlights are bright and consistent, and stretch wide enough to see the sides of the road without blinding others or turning on the brights.

The rear turn indicators are low and the bumper.

It handles well, is quiet at lower speeds;( with exception of noisy backup alert).

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

but would have been nice to have adaptive headlights or fog lights for better cornering at night.

comfortable

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.

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

Amazing gas mileage, comfortable ride, amazing new design.

Very comfortable, quiet, powerful and extremely attractive.

my family loves the styling , ride and comfort

ride

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.

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

feature

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

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.

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

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

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 .

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

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.

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.

Plenty of power and handling is competent,  if not sporty.

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

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.

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.

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

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 Volkswagen Taos

transmission

The transmission shifts inconsistently causing either jerking of vehicle at low speeds or inadequate acceleration when needed to merge into traffic.

I would rate this vehicle at least 4 stars if the transmission did not make driving this vehicle Work and tiresome.

The DSG transmission is a very poor choice for this vehicle.

The transmission is a bit laggy from a start

but until the embarrassing 7-speed transmission gets addressed, I wouldn't recommend the Taos to someone.

The only negative comments I have is about the transmission.

but the uneven power delivery is a hazard and I would warn others to avoid the AWD version until a future time when VW either fixes this condition or uses a different transmission in the next version.

.the car violently Jerks sometimes when stop at the light when the ignition shuts off,the lane assist will randomly shut off.

I purchased this in January and at only 4000 miles has been to the dealer multiple times for stop start stalling, EPC code, check engine light and other electronic issues.

Lately, while driving, the car will flash the check engine light when it's low on gas.

Nice balance between sportiness, efficiency, noise, & ride.

To the Taos' credit, it does handle mountain passes very well, I've driven over 3 of them in Colorado so far and the Taos has performed well in that aspect, you can feel the turbo kick in as you begin to climb and it's a satisfying feeling.

It has a very comfortable ride (a little on the firmer side) and it handles very well for a CUV.

Great fuel economy, handles like a sports car and plenty of room on the in the cabin.

The handling and increased gas mileage is superior.

The Taos is very light on it's feet, responsive, good turning radius and holds the road through corners very well, surprisingly well.

but gained AWD, way more passenger space for family and friends and a more comfortable riding position for when I feel like running about.

The quiet and smooth ride of the Taos has been thoughtfully designed and engineered.

It's a very compact car, I find that the passenger seat ride is okay - I have a baby-seat in the rear that only allows for so much room in front-passenger seat

It’s a comfortable ride and easy to maneuver.

The car is beautiful on the outside and such a smooth ride.

Acceleration is not bad, better in Sport mode, ride is good, and handling surprisingly nimble.

The soft touch makes resting the elbow more comfortable,

Sporty stylish exterior and technology-packed interior with loads of room and extremely comfortable seats.

On our first road trip we averaged almost 42 MPG in great comfort and safety.

Interior is extremely comfortable for 4, w/ lots of luggage space.

but nice, and the seats are super comfortable.

room

I'm 6'6" and I fit quite comfortably inside, plenty of head, leg, and knee room!

but, you should not need to push the seat back for basic foot room.

I'm 6'4, and I have ample leg and head room.

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 Kia EV6

Good mixture between sportiness and comfort.

I have 9500 mile on it and love it ride is great and the handling i fine.The interior is laid out great.

It takes bumps well, corners comfortably, and is quiet, with little road noise.

This vehicle has all of the torque and handling of the Tesla, with all of the amenities of a luxury car.

but still with enough stiffness that you can drive hard and push through curves and corners extemely well.

We have taken longish (150 plus mile) trips all around and found it very comfortable and surprisingly fun to drive.

Quite, comfortable, stylish and a dream to drive.

I was pleasantly surprised to see just how quickly it would get up to speed on the Highway, and it is comfortable cruising local roads.

The fit and finish, comfort, and performance of our roomy 2022 KIA EV6 have been terrific.

Car is comfortable, with plenty of room for rear passengers.

The remote park feature is used daily to get the car in and out of the garage.

2022 Mazda CX-5

heat/air-control

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;.

Just silky imput combined with very sennsitive throttle response - I mean super sensitive !

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

It handles beautifully and I am one of those people that hate CVT transmissions, so I love that Mazda gives you a REAL 6 speed automatic with sport mode.

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

interior

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

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.

2022 Audi Q5 Sportback

audio-system

The car is not designed for northern winters: the windows don’t open in cold weather, ice forms on the inside of the glass, the new transmission is not nearly as good in snow as the original Quattro, and the HVAC system does not heat the car unless you manually jack up the settings.

For a company that claims to lead in technology their systems don't work and their WEB site is a mess.

The ride is smooth, and the Q5 responses quickly.

Very good handling, great interior&#47;exterior.

Ride is smooth or sporty as you can select, I have friends with all the other brands &#38; they always take a peek at what they don't have. Drive?

cargo

The one down-side is that this car is smaller in the backseat and with cargo space than the X3.

It’s came with premium plus and black package

The options that came with the car are amazing (including the heated&#47;cooled front cupholders).

2022 Audi Q5

2022 Hyundai Kona N

The throttle response is instant, and I personally don’t pick up on much turbo lag.

The suspension is very firm, probably to make the car corner well while maintaining its compact-SUV ride height.

The car hugs the road and pulls out of corners like a traditional hot hatch, and the brakes are great.

And in maximum attack mode on back roads, it is an absolute delight,

I also enjoy the navigation system attaching to your phone so you never have to update the system.

It is the most fun vehicle I have ever owned after owning a string of great vehicles starting with a then-new 1968 Z28 Camaro.

But as far as pure driving joy for the money goes, look no further.

exhaust

The exhaust pops and snarls and crackles in sport mode which will either make you giggle like a kid or roll your eyes, maybe both.

Even in eco mode the exhaust has some nice notes.

I personally like to have everything cranked to the max other than the suspension, which I leave in its lowest setting, and the exhaust, which I keep in sport rather than sport +,

As a former GTI owner, the Kona N still has some of the same characteristics of the GTI and other hot hatchbacks of days gone by- a practical shape for folding down the rear seats and shoving in a bike or a dresser on occasion, a reasonably small footprint, and performance numbers that will shock people who judge cars by their badge.

It gives you all the versatility of a small SUV with all of the fun of a hot hatch.

It's small for storage, it's good for 2 on a road trip.

2022 Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo

2022 Ford Edge

2022 Ford Edge and after 500-700 miles it developed a noise on taking off.

but I think response and handling are good for a vehicle this size.

The seats are very comfortable for the driver and passenger.

The 2022 that I know have is more comfortable and has a lot of technology that my 2019 didn't have.

Handles great and very quiet ride with comfortable seats.

I love the size and detail of the new big screen for navigation purposes.

screen

2022 Porsche Taycan

2022 Jeep Compass

It has ample responsiveness for all situations, keeping in mind that this is an SUV , I did not purchase it for performance, I would have got a Challenger if that's what i was interested in.
