Fantastic car
Car drives beautiful, very economical. Interior layed out perfectly. I would definitely recommend this vehicle to anyone who enquirers. It drives fantastic on both long distances and short. The interior is very comfortable with great space and seating material. Very economical to drive in both short and long distance. A++ rating

The SUV that is finally value for money.
Having driven big 4X4 for the last several years, when I tried the Tuscon I was surprised and how comfortable it was to drive. The response of the engine and the fuel consumption just made this the prefect car for bot myself and my wife to drive. The room inside was great and the allround comfort and accessories made driving a pleasure rather than a task.
if you are looking for a reasonably priced SUV and the local dealer was excellent I would recommend the Hyundai Tuscon, it is the SUV that goes it doesn't just go vroom vromm.

Plaisant drive
Very pleasant to drive, however the passenger seat is quite low with no lever to correct it. I went to the dealer to find a solution but the sale person knew the problem and said there was nothing to be done. I also find the A/C button a bit complicated to operate while driving, one other button has to be on a specific position to be able to be activated. Petrol consumption, quite economical on motorway but goes quickly to 12L in the city unless we drive at 60 kmh. The back seats fold flat, very roomy. In the all it is great value for money.

Beyound my expectatios
Have owned my Tucson Active x for just over a year. Logged just over 15000 Km. The finish on the vehicle is second to none, the comfort and interior leaves little to be desired. The engine performs outstanding for a 2 litre engine and the economy is great around the city 8.5 per hundred KM, Long distance Adelaide, Mt Gambier, Port Fairy, Melb, Mt Buller, Ballarat and Halls Gap averaged 6.9 per hundred KM. that was with 5 people and all their baggage. Road handling is very positive. Full size spare wheel, Timing chain not a belt big plus. Could not be happier. My son called it a Korean Coffee can, let me tell you its the best cup of coffee I have had for a long time.

Good looking and good everything
We did a lot of research on this and other cars in this range. It ended up a choice between Hyundai Active X and the Kia. We choose the ActiveX on price, looks and comfort. The only thing I did not see when we purchased this car is there are no A/C vents in the rear but the A/C is so good it does not matter. More than happy with our choice.

Amazing and surprisingly good
We drive an Audi q7 and Rover at home but rented a Hyundai Tucson while in Europe for 2 months. Were utterly amazed with the driving quality, comfort and fuel efficiency of this car. Completely praiseworthy and stylish and lovely to drive. For the price of this car you are looking at luxury standard and comfort. Would recommend highly.

Amazing car, super happy with it.
Love my new car, its spacious, interior is organized well and great car to drive. Feels very spacious but not hard to drive or park. Reverse camera makes parking a breeze. Also extremely quiet when running. Also great fuel economy. I got the pearl white colour which is really nice and keeps clean. Very happy with my purchase, love the car!

Not too bad driving but the car yard, terrible!
I have test driven this, CRV, Sportage, CX5, RAV4. Basic 2.0 lt petrol. CRV wins easily, power, features, quietness and general feel inside, CRV wins on all accounts. The biggest turnoff was the service and poor attitude at Lakes Hyundai North Lakes. These guys had terrible attitude, really looked down their noses to me. Avoid at all costs!

Best of seven tested
We chose to purchase an suv for easier access for my wife, and after reading numerous reviews we narrowed the field to Mazda CX-5, Mitsubishi Outlander, RAV4, Kia Sportage, Nissan XTrail and Tucson. Test drove each car over a 20 kilometre section with hills on a rainy day, and found the Mazda noisy, cramped, with a small boot, not a great motor. The Outlander was spacious, gutsy with the bigger motor, good boot. The Rav went well, was spacious, good boot, the Kia drove very well, seemed smaller than the others, the XTrail was large, seemed stro...Read more
ng but didn't like the cvt. The Tucson rode well, was fairly spacious and a fair boot. The lack of a full size spare ruled out the Rav 4, and the cx5, these are abominations when travelling outside cities. I found the Tucson was the best riding vehicle with a very willing 2litre motor, the RAV4 was a contender except for the spare. We have driven 3000 kilometres and can confirm the Tucson is a very good tourer, economical with a strong ride, a very good automatic, very strong brakes, but the factory tyres are not up to the mark, it seems that better tyres would significantly improve the handling at speed.. Downsides are the drivers exterior mirror minimises vehicles which is not good, and the aircon is adequate but not as good as our 9 year old Mitsubishi 380's system. All in all we are happy with the choice, the best of what was tested, good quality, good build. February 1st 2017 Update: Truly very good motor car. The X model we purchased is a surprisingly good car to drive, direct and responsive handling, a strong riding car that handles very well, the engine sound is not noticeable unless changing down for a steep incline, and the brakes are superb. The 2 litre motor is quite a surprising unit considering the weight of the car, very responsive and the economy can be terrific. Sometimes wish the motor was more powerful in hilly areas, yet it does the job well. Economy has been as low as 5.3litres per 100 kilometres and averages 7.1 on most trips, around town we get between 8.5 to 12 dependent on the number of short trips. The car runs well on 91 octane fuel but is really good on 95 octane or above.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Don't buy if you want a 'Driver's Car'
It's reasonably good value, but the devil is in the detail. Its still a Hyundai of old in many ways. Plenty of hard plastics and sub par materials, poor interior design decisions throughout the cabin (particularly in the base model). The engine is under-powered, the braking hardware poor, and steering too light with little feel.
If you're a A to B car person, these are great. If you're looking for something with some more substance, there are better cars out there from Japanese and European rivals for not much more money.

Hyundai TUCSON active x
Just bought a 2015 Tucson, great car to drive, but like all new cars they take away lots of stuff, then when you ask they say if you upgrade you can obtain these extras--which use to be standard--(ie) CD Player, AC vents for the rear passengers, we live in the hottest country should be standard on all cars, cheap tyres,
The streaming doesn't really work effectively, Radio is not good, Voice activation for phone hit and miss.
If we notice that as new models come out they take things away, and tell us that we are getting a great deal, not so.
Why have we got plastic on fenders and guards, I see cost cutting .
Hard disgusting plastic on the interior.

Best bang for buck on the road!
Before test driving I was hooked on the Mazda CX-5. We needed to upgrade for our new family member. The Hyundai brand didn't even register in my top 5. But after test driving the 2015 Tucson Active X I was convinced & hooked!
For a start the car looks awesome inside & out. Its pretty much a 5 seater Santa-Fe. Its styling gives it an on road wow factor which stands out from the crowd. Inside its very comfortable with everything you would find within the competition cars with leather seats as a bonus. It has all the fruit when it comes to in ...Read more
car controls and the A/C works excellent for Australian conditions. Driving is a dream. Very quiet on the road and handles very well in the dry & wet. Very fuel efficient and less scheduled servicing required compared to other manufactures, Did I mention the 5 year warranty! Our car has done under 5k Km's but we are very happy with it to date. The features you get in this car are first class and match that of other makes. I believe its the best value for money SUV you will find (features vs $$) So why only 4 star rating? For some reason the Australian right hand drive model only received a 4 star ANCAP rating. I don't find the car unsafe in any shape or form as it has all the safety features of the competition.1 comment
UPDATE: The Hyundai Tucson has now been awarded a 5 Start ANCAP rating for 2016 models.

Great car but a few niggles spoil the party.
I have an Active X with 5000k's on the clock. It drives very well and the steering, suspension and cabin noise are superb. The brakes are average and the fuel consumption is around 9L/100kms which is worse than my 2013 2wd Mitsubishi Outlander which averaged 7.5l/100kms in the exact same driving conditions. The Tucson has a nice traditional auto and it drives way better than the current crop of CVT SUVs. The multi function trip computer average fuel consumption is about 20% out and the bluetooth is so poor its unusable. I have contacted Hyundai...Read more
and they said a fix is on the way (as of late December 2015). The Tucson is not as roomy inside as the CRV, Rav4 or Outlander. All of the above are taller and have more interior space. The new Tucson has adopted styling cues from the Range Rover Evoque and the cabin feels wider and lower. When my 10 year old daughter sits behind me I have to move the seat forward, something i didn't have to do in the Outlander or my wife 2014 Rav4. The biggest disappointment is the stereo. I mentioned the poor bluetooth performance earlier but overall the stereo is a dud. The sound quality is superb but my cars unit shuts down intermittently and guess what? when I take it to a dealer I get told they could find a problem. Worse still is the safety warning screen that appears every time you get in the car. You have to manually accept the warning by touching the screen. Most new cars have similar warnings but the disappear after a few seconds. The Tucson doesn't and it locks the functionality of the stereo until you touch the screen. Perversely you often have to take your eyes off the road to accept the caution, therefore totally compromising the road safety message. If Hyundai can sort my dodgy stereo then I will be a lot happier with the vehicle.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Great small SUV
Absolutely brilliant car. Noise is low, handling and comfort are great. Inside and outside looks great and the infotainment is really good. The engine has enough go if you plant the foot at times. Fuel economy seems to be as quoted so far. Leather seats in a low model is nice, plenty of room for rear seat passengers and in the boot. Seems to be a step up from the Mazda cx5 in almost all areas and comes with a 5 year warranty plus 3. The only downsides are that the phone microphone is a bit far away and volume at the other end can be quiet. Ther...Read more
e is an issue with the drivers footwell which means the car isn't 5 stars yet.. Should be fixed soon on new cars. Google auto software isn't available yet and only available on the base models... ???

New 2015/16 Tucson a bloody good vehicle.
The smoothness on the roads and handling is excellent. Cabin space and cabin noise is wonderful. Only let down is Apple play software download is still yet to be available.
7.8L/100 is about right.
Service costs are low and so far nothing has gone wrong.

Update after 6,000km. This vehicle has no flaws at all. Built well. The fuel seems a little higher now; after a few tanks and the guage has settled, perhaps 8.5L/100.
Interior remains new and durab... Read more
Still no Apple Play!
Apple play is here and installed. Works nice with Siri,
Clearer voice calls and the start up warning now goes off automatically after 5 seconds.
Apps are great too.

Why have all NEW cars got horrible PLASTIC around the fenders and guards---are we running out of steel?
This is cost cutting gone to far--no car should be worth more than $20000, with all the disgusting plastics in them--
