The 2020 Hyundai Tucson ranked #9 in Compact SUVs. Currently the Hyundai Tucson has a score of 7.7 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 27 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Relaxed ride
Good predicted reliability rating
Solid list of standard technology
Long warranty

Cons
Uninspiring engine options
Lower fuel economy estimates than rivals
Below-average cargo space

By:

The 2019 received a wide range of updates, so the 2020 Tucson's changes are modest. Hyundai revamped the available colors for the exterior; a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob are standard on Sport trim levels and above.

Pros
Handsome exterior, straightforward dashboard design, agreeable driving demeanor.

Cons
Less cargo space than key rivals, mediocre fuel economy, powertrain warranty doesn't transfer to second owner.

The 2019 Nissan Sentra is a compact sedan that handles the basics and little more.

Pros
Active safety tech on most
Decent fuel economy
Apple and Android capability
Spacious rear seat

Cons
Turbos aren’t much fun
Vague 6-speed manual
Droning CVT
Leisurely acceleration in most models
Top-end trims are costly

By:

The 2019 Nissan Sentra doesn't attract much attention. It's not as popular in terms of sales as other top small sedans, and it's fair to say that its styling isn't as memorable. But depending on your needs, it could still be worth a look.

Pros
Spacious back seat and trunk for the class
Priced lower than many rivals
User-friendly control layout

Cons
Slow acceleration on most models
Lacks the latest in infotainment design and safety features
The seats aren't particularly suitable for taller drivers
Less engaging driving experience than many competitors
