Expectations are a powerful thing. It has this way of re-wiring your brain, and could be enough to swing an opinion on a car from being awesome to just being meh. With its stunning looks and sheer number of international accolades, expectations have been running high on the all-new Tucson, Hyundai’s entry in the ultra-competitive compact SUV segment. Sadly, it is one that does not live up to all the hype.
And then, there’s the climate control system. Design-wise, it’s already problematic because it doesn’t visually align with the infotainment screen. Furthermore, by sticking to touch-sensitive controls, good luck operating them by feel. Thankfully, the temperature is controlled by toggle switches—something they should have used on the infotainment system—but everything else becomes a hit-or-miss affair. Trying jabbing Auto, and you might end up turning the whole AC off.
The Tucson is at its weakest when it comes to its on-road dynamics. All told, there is nothing wrong with it, but there is also nothing great about it either. It just exists, and given just how head-turning it looks, it’s heartbreaking. Task it to go from Point A to Point B, and it will do so with zero fuss. However, ask anything more of it, and it’ll stare right back at you saying, “me don’t do that.” Just when you think you compact SUVs can’t get more mediocre, Hyundai has come up with this.
