Default Burning Smell on new 2017 Tuscon

So I just bought a 2017 2.0L Tuscon SE a couple weeks ago & I love it! But today for the first time I noticed when I got to work & again when I got home a slight burning smell as I got out & walked around the car to the back. I know it's new & this may happen but I have never smelt this before & it's my 3rd new car.

It only lasts 20-30 seconds maybe then goes away..

Call up the Hyundai service and talk with the techs
I know new cars sometimes comes with crap on the exhaust which needs to burn off
But happens quickly and does last more than two days

If you are up to it then look at your exhaust system to see if there is anything on it that can cause this issue

Yeah I emailed the guy I know that works there to ask..we will see what he says..

I agree after reading alot about this, seems it happens sometimes in new cars..

I only have 180 km on it, only has it 2 weeks so must be that..

This. I wouldn't worry about it unless it persists.
