Hyundai Alcazar Facelift Fuel Efficiency Figures Revealed
The new Hyundai Alcazar starts at Rs 14.99 lakh in India (ex-showroom). It continues to compete with the MG Hector Plus, Mahindra XUV700, and Tata Safari.
The Hyundai Alcazar recently underwent its first comprehensive makeover since its launch in 2021. The SUV now starts at Rs 14.99 lakh and features dual 10.25-inch screens, two memory settings for the driver's seat, dual-zone air conditioning, a wireless phone charger (second row), and eight power-adjustable front seats. However, mechanically, the SUV retains its 1.5-litre turbo-petrol and diesel engine options. The former comes with a 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed DCT, while the latter is available with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed automatic transmission. With a mileage of more than 20km/l, the diesel manual is a highly fuel-efficient powertrain option in the lineup. It is followed by the 6-speed manual turbo-petrol, which has a fuel efficiency of 17.5km/l.
Interestingly, the turbo-petrol DCT and diesel-automatic boasts the same mileage of 18km/l. It's important to note that these figures are claimed by ARAI (Automotive Research Association of India), and actual fuel economy may vary based on driving conditions.
