Yeah, I had decided to keep the GTI, and then I drove the Tuscon and got into some dealing with the dealer folks, the usual merry go round. My wife liked it a lot ...
So, my initial impressions after driving it about 40 miles,
It is very quiet on the highway. The ride comfort is improved a fair bit.
Steering is predictable numb.
Acceleration is OK. Not great, but adequate, and I'm old.
The dash board looks like a spaceship. It has so many widgets I got lost with them all. It can even drive itself back out of a tight parking space without being in the car.
Handling is OK.
Visibility is much better, higher ride of course. Interior space is better of course.
It will drive a bit initially on battery alone, not far.
The rear view camera that click on the dash when you turn on a blinker on the freeway is useful.
It has memory seats, thank goodness.
My car insurance rate dropped $207 for 6 months, which surprised me.
It has a nice smell.
The start=stop function is seamless.
I'm told they are in very high demand and it's true there are only three I could find in the metro area, Limited Hybrids.
