  1. Well he locked the differentials, so it wouldn’t really matter how good the AWD is, would it?

  2. Turning Off the ESP helps a lot with this type of vehicles, in cases of getting stuck in Snow or something similar.

  3. See i want that chick as my next door neighbor she seems fun lol. Anyway i want this car but i want it in black :)

  4. No body said this is an Off Roader….This is a CrossOver with AWD system on demand. Not even the Forester is an Off Roader. I believe this car is doing very well for the type of car it is and the price it has. Actually the only problem in this car is the ground clearance. In Germany it is actually considered a better option over the Rav4.
    The only small SUV with real off road skills is the Suzuki Vitara, it does have Low Range and Diff Lock.

  5. better watch out when I was backign up in the snow the plastic undergaurd broke off Hyundai said warranty dont cover it lol! Tucson not meant for winter, and idk about yours but mine on the highway is shit I can hardly hit 60 to 80 kph if theres a little ice I had old beater cars passing me everything doing 100kph when i couldnt do that becuase the rear end was like a snake uncontrolled! the FWD felt safer on the road!

  6. 5:08 i get mad when i see people stuck in snow spin & turn their tires left and right thinking that it will get them unstuck.for all of you people who dont know you have to give a chance for tires to grip on snow, the more you spin tires the more you’ll just get stuck. 10 minutes to get out of 4 inches of snow????with awd!!!not a good way to sell a cuv that is supposed to be good in snow, in that case i understand supdog’s comment…but the prob here is at 19 inches from the steering wheel.

  7. Is it just me or are these getting to the point where there is almost no info about the car anymore?

  8. When i finally upgrade from my 1994 olds 88 my new car will HAVE to have ventilated seats. so far only hyundai/kia offer then in reasonably priced cars.

  9. love your videos!! I like how you guys actually review cars that are affordable/ practical for most people.

  10. This was really well filmed. Personally I think it looked like the Tucson was struggling a little, but that is on just normal tires, I think my Legacy on its normal tires would have been spinning a little bit, probably if you applied studded snow tires these cars would do quite a lot better, and in the northwest most people whom enjoy the outdoor activities have the studded tires in their garages anyway.

  11. Hey Jess did you draw short straw for this ? time to sent Aaron packing, no class dude

  12. S uper U gly V ehicle = hemroid take your little darlings to soccer practice in that

  13. U mean the ugly boring Subaru would destroy this car???? :) are u sure?? just cuz is AWD does not mean is better.

  14. I’m a huge fan of TOP Gear and 5th Gear! And this was just added to my list. I like this show because they are reviewing cars I could actually buy.
