Should I buy a diesel Hyundai Tucson?
The question
I was thinking of buying a 2023 Hyundai Tucson 1.6 diesel, but I have been warned from many people to avoid it as there are too many faults with them. Is this true and if so, can you suggest something like the Tucson that might be a better fit?

Hi Michael,
You'll find someone somewhere that has had an issue with nearly every car on sale, but the Hyundai Tucson in general has been very reliable and we'd not hesitate in recommending it. The Kia Sportage is based on the same mechanicals, and it has the same strong reputation. If you're not set on diesel, you could consider the dependable Toyota RAV4 instead, or the Nissan Qashqai e-Power for that matter.
