Hyundai Tucson 2004 test drive - 2009 SUV

FIVE POINTS

Of the ten possible
Without this parquet class, not a single manufacturer is complete. And the share of this segment in the general range is growing steadily. In addition to the presented five models, you can easily attract here at least the same amount. But almost all of them are veterans who have long existed in the market and soon leaving the stage.

SUMMARY
In this case, talking about priorities is easier than usually all the applicants are bright, noticeable. A special place is Honda. The new model took a wide step forward compared to its predecessor. This is an unconditional leader in the class. Beautiful, high -quality, stylish and spacious vehicle hit of the coming season. We collected the whole five even when it was not known that the line on Honda would grow for more than a year. The complaint is not a more powerful modification.
It is difficult to determine Hyundai or Toyota with the second place? But after fair hesitation, we choose TUCSON. It is noticeably more dynamic and yurche, it is easier for an interface, there is a plastic body kit along the bottom of the body. And yet, it is not much noticeably cheaper. Or does someone believe that Korean cars are required to take at a price? Now this is by no means so! Tusan is a pleasant exception.
 
Toyota Standard. In a good way and in bad. Not ideal, but the middle of the middle. Not expensive, high -quality, discreetly, in price loses slowly. People respect, but not tormented by black envy, not Landcrose! Curaticity? So fear! Queues for the service? As if others do not have them! Each third has the same Rafik. Well, here is a matter of taste to stand out or to be like everyone else.
 
Suzuki somehow does not even want to push the car quite worthy to fourth place. But he does not go quickly, he does not know how. And the quality of materials is so -so. It seems that the creators did not have the spirit to bring all the qualities of the car to the desired condition.
And jeep? In this company, he is perhaps an outsider.

1 PLACE
Honda CR-V
+ Passenger behavior on controllability and the best smoothness. Cozy, modern interior and understandable interface for managing all functions
- lack of dynamics can scare off active drivers
2ND PLACE
Hyundai Ticson
+ A real bait both in dynamics and controllability, competitors rest! Cozy salon. Good landing and review.
- There is no pronounced zero on the steering wheel. In the threshold, excessive pitch.
3RD PLACE
Toyota Rav4
+ Remarkable handling. Great visibility. The computer informs you in Russian.
- A rigid suspension reaction to any road joints. Flat front seats. Not too comfortable buttons.
4th place
Suzuki Grand Vitara
+ A real SUV. Energy -intensive suspension.
- slide off the front seats. There is no stabilization system. Rough interior decoration.
5th place
Jeep Compass
+ A rather masculine appearance is an unusual feature for a jeep of a parquet.
- Infinement of the interior in the maximum manifestation. Unsuccessful landing in all places. Poor visibility. Management with pronounced insufficient rotation.
