Hi, Just purchased a 2022 Tucson Sel w/convenience pkg. First time Hyundai owner, I have been a Nissan driver for quite a while, actually 5 in a row. Only been in the new one for a week, but loving it so far. I picked Portofino Grey, which if very close to black. Still figuring out all the buttons, lol, but like the ride...

Having had yours almost 10 months longer than ours, you're one of the earlier '22 model owners I've come across. My wife has racked up an impressive huge 1,800 miles since she got it 10 months ago herself, so depending on how much you've had a chance to drive yours do you have any strong impressions - positive and negative? You didn't remark on a weaksause 2.5 ICE, so I'll presume you have one of the hybrids?

Actually, no it is the 2.5 ICE, the Hybrids were not available when I got mine. My son is a salesman at the local Hyundai dealership, so I grabbed mine in June of 2021. I have no complaints at all, the 2.5 won't win any races, but with the tranny it has it is plenty of power. I am 77yrs old, and I have 7433 miles on it, and I drove it around St. Louis yesterday for about 90 miles, mostly on city streets, and the indicator showed 38 mpg which I find is typical. Traffic was very light, in a rush hour situation it will drop to 18 to 24mpg...
I have a Samsung phone (android) and it connects well on Bluetooth and uses projection to put google maps or waze maps on the digital dash. I always drive in normal mode, and my driving score is 95. If you want to ask me something my email is: [email protected]...
