A bigger 2027 Hyundai Tucson and Bentley's first EV, the Torcal

The redesigned compact SUV gets a 233-hp hybrid upgrade and a roomier cargo hold, and its comment section has opinions about the styling.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

What's New with the 2027 Hyundai Tucson?What's New with the 2027 Hyundai Tucson?

Car and Driver put up two videos, and both are about firsts of a kind. One is a walk around the redesigned 2027 Hyundai Tucson; the other a look inside the 2028 Bentley Torcal, the electric car the 107-year-old British brand is calling its first EV.

The Tucson is the one people are clicking. Per the description, the new version grows in size, starts with a turbocharged 1.6-liter four and steps up to a 233-hp hybrid. It passed 30,000 views in four days, more than twice what the Bentley has gathered. Underneath, the talk is almost all about the face of the thing: several viewers say it looks like a Kia, one asks why new cars seem to leave the factory already crashed, and another simply predicts it will be the next rental car at the airport counter.

The Bentley is a quieter watch. Its description promises a car that keeps some of the brand's familiar cues but breaks with tradition, especially in the cabin, which is where the video spends its time.

Between them sits a nine-day-old radar detector test, still drawing steady attention for a story about avoiding the flashing lights in the mirror.

The channel ran a touch below its usual daily pace and its subscriber count held still. Among the motoring channels near its size, it sits in the middle, while George J Saliba is having a week far above his usual.
