TOP TEN CARS OF 2021 PLUS A FEW MORE

EV Channels Review

This video presents Motormouth's top ten cars of 2021, with a focus on sensible, family-oriented vehicles, though exceptions like the Cadillac Escalade are included. The hosts, Andrea and Zack, meticulously detail their reasoning for each selection, highlighting pros such as driving dynamics, interior quality, and value, while also pointing out drawbacks like pricing, infotainment systems, and build quality concerns. Notable mentions include the Hyundai Kona, Mazda CX-30 Turbo, and Volkswagen Taos for their driving fun, but they missed the top ten due to market limitations or pricing. The Tesla Model Y was honorable mentioned but deemed too expensive with substandard build quality and ride. The top picks showcase a range of vehicles, from the Acura MDX praised for its sedan-like handling and value, to the Ford Bronco lauded for its off-road capability and style, and the Genesis GV70 admired for its stunning interior and base engine performance. The Honda Civic earns a spot for its refined interior and practicality, while the Hyundai Ioniq 5 stands out as a top EV choice for its refined ride and quality. The Mitsubishi Outlander is recognized as a game-changer for the brand, offering a more premium experience, and the Nissan Frontier is celebrated for its powerful V6 engine and smooth transmission. The Volkswagen GTI makes the list for its fun driving dynamics and the return of a physical volume knob on the base model. Ultimately, the Hyundai Tucson is crowned Car of the Year for its striking design, spacious interior, multiple efficient powertrains, and excellent value, despite the lack of a more powerful engine option found in the Santa Fe.
