Exactly why I don't feel bad that I didn't give the 16 Tucson a look. The new tucson has some awesome technology, certainly more than the cx5. Not by much though. However, coming from a 13 elantra I told myself never again will I buy a Hyundai. Was a good little car but my god was it a horrible driving machine. Lifeless explains it best. Now the cx5, quite amazing how it can put such a smile on your face. And that will outlast the "coolness" of any tech feature.
We looked at the Tucson and while nice enough car, it seemed like just a smaller Santa Fe, which we traded in. We really didn't mind the Santa Fe, but it had one issue that bothered me. The plastic surround on the passenger seat broke 2-3 times and while Hyundai fixed in under warranty, their explaination for why we were having the problem (as well as many others on the web) is how we were getting in and out of the car. We leased the car and couldn't see paying for a car that we knew was going to have an recurring problem. I kind of disagree about the technology being better on the Tucson. Only thing that comes standard on it that I wish came standard on the CX-5 is Siriusxm. Stuns me that other automakers don't do have it standard. I love the CX-5 so far.
