**A Review of the Hyundai Tucson: A Family Car with Some Quirks**

The Hyundai Tucson is like to drive, starting off with its raised driving position, which is great for forward visibility. There's a bit of a blind spot from here, but it's not too bad, thanks to big side mirrors. The view out the back window is all right as well, so it's fairly confidence-inspiring when you're maneuvering around town. You really get a sense of where the corners are, which helps when parking as well.

One thing that I've noticed though is that the suspension feels a little bit firmer than I'd like in a car like this. I think that other cars, like the Skoda Karat, for instance, are just a bit more comfortable. Other bumps if you click on the pop-out band up there, you can watch my in-depth video review of that car.

Another feature that is good about this particular Tucson is that it's a hybrid, so you can just mooch along on electric power alone for very short distances. You can't go that far because it's not a plug-in hybrid, but it does mean that it's quite relaxed when you're just pooping around I like that about it.

What's less relaxing, though, is the brakes. They're strong, but when you're braking, they recoup energy and put it back into the battery, which can feel a little bit jerky in touch hard to judge the turning circle on the car is well, we'll see now. I'm going around a mini roundabout, and it's adequate. I did have to mount the mini roundabout; hope it wasn't offended by being mounted. It seemed fine.

The gearbox, generally speaking, is pretty good if you're just cruising along. However, when you put your foot down all of a sudden, it can sometimes take a wee while to respond when the electric motor works together with the petrol engine and the gearbox to give you that forward propulsion. It's not terrible; it's just not the sharpest system.

This car has fully automated cruise controls set it going, and it'll steer to keep you in lane, and you can actually use it at times speeds look I'm in a 30, and it's actually doing its thing. Cruise control at 30 miles per hour, why the heck not? Of course, you've got all the safety systems as well; so if you get too close to a car in front, it will automatically break and save your skin.

If you're not paying attention and beeping at you constantly, annoying but safely annoying. Finally, let's see what this Tucson is like on a twisty road. Well, the first thing I noticed is that the steering feels overly light. Now, and it's not as if it's connected to the front wheels; it doesn't give you that much confidence to go quickly. Not that you really want to go that quickly in the car like this but shouldn't you want to? Doesn't encourage spirited driving.

You can put it into sports mode, and it weighs up the steering, making the car feel a little bit more lively, but really, sports mode in this car is largely pointless. It doesn't quite go down the road as well; isn't like a set attacker I'll put a link to my review of the Skoda Karat just up there if you click on that; you can watch my video of that car.

Another thing that I've noticed about this thing is that when you're going quicker, you do get a little bit more wind noise than you would doing something like a Volvo XC40. It's not bad though when you're on the motorway and you hit these undulations; it actually quite good at dealing with them. It feels fairly solid so the suspension does get better with speed.

**Economy and Practicality**

One thing that is interesting about this Tucson is its economy, which averages around 37 miles per gallon. While not brilliant, it's all right for a big car like this.
