Hyundai Tucson vs. Mazda CX-5
An abundance of choice is certainly not necessarily a bad thing, and customers have been spoiled by choice when it comes to the new 2016 Hyundai Tucson and the Mazda CX-5. There are without a doubt a number of people still on the fence with regard to these two, but I am here to let you know that the Hyundai Tucson very much wins out when put head to head with the Mazda CX-5.
Let’s start with what is under the hood. Now, the 2016 Hyundai Tucson comes standard with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that pushes somewhere in the ballpark of 175 horsepower and an impressive 195 pounds per square inch of torque. These are such impressive numbers for a crossover and easily beat out the Mazda CX-5. The engine works almost like a diesel, so you get that full-throttle feel while maintaining the smooth and composed drive of a classic crossover. The 2016 Hyundai Tucson also offers a dual-clutch transmission that is an absolute update over the Mazda CX-5.
The handling of the new 2016 Hyundai Tucson is also miles ahead of the competition, taking all the twists and turns like a champion. Coupled with a set of standard, low-profile 19-inch rims, the 2016 Hyundai Tucson provides just that extra level of confidence when taking those tricky turns. It is certainly perfect for your next mountain getaway. Equally as impressive, Hyundai has decided to put in extra attention with regard to the 2016 Tucson’s suspension system, which provides for the well-balanced, ultra smooth ride that many other crossovers and SUVs sorely lack.
Going inside the vehicle, Hyundai have completely redesigned the interior, providing customers with a wonderfully uncluttered, very clean looking design. Too, there is ample space throughout the vehicle, perfect for those family vacations and long weekend camping trips. The new 2016 Hyundai Tucson also comes with several standard safety features such as a lane departure warning system as well as an automatic emergency breaking system.
The new 2016 Hyundai Tucson base model will start at around $22,000, but even higher level trim models stay under $30,000, so you most certainly will not break the bank with regard to your new crossover SUV. It is safe to say, then, that the 2016 Hyundai Tucson is probably the better choice for a number of us crossover fans.
