Hyundai > Tucson WLTP, MPG, Fuel consumption

In this review, we will examine the Tucson model of the Hyundai that is the flagship model of the brand in the SUV segment. As with all our reviews, we will evaluate this model under three main headings. These titles are The Features of the Hyundai Tucson, The Fuel Consumption of the Hyundai Tucson, and Does It Suit You? Before starting the review, let's take a brief look at the history of the Tucson model. Hyundai Tucson, named after the city of Tucson in Arizona-USA, is a five doored C Segment SUV produced by the South Korean-based automaker since 2004. The car was first introduced at the 2005 Detroit Auto Show and received positive feedback from the media. With a three-generation history, Tucson continues to produce as one of the Hyundai brand's most important models in the SUV market. The generation still in production today is referred to as "TL".

The Features of the Hyundai Tucson

First of all, considering the exterior of Hyundai Tucson, I must say that the Hyundai design team has done a very successful job. Although the car is from the SUV segment, Tucson's sharp lines make it sportier and more dynamic than being a bulky SUV. The design line created under the leadership of Peter Schreyer has preserved, and the fine details of the car have brought to the fore. This design concept has become very impressive when combined with the prestige of a brand like Hyundai. While the hexagonal grille design draws attention at the front of the car, the LED headlights at the front and rear provide better visibility to the driver. The design of the headlights also makes the car look very stylish, as it fits harmoniously with the overall concept of the car. When we focus on the interior design, Hyundai's simple but useful design concept welcomes us. Since the car is an SUV, it has a very large cabin area. The best job Hyundai does is that it has not spent this space with unnecessarily large and bulky console parts. The entire design is made entirely with a focus on driver and passenger comfort. Thus, the people inside the vehicle have a very comfortable movement area. Moving on to the technology side of the business, Hyundai has always been a brand for innovation. For this reason, we can say that the Tucson model progresses on this path and contains many features based on advanced technology. Smart tailgate, wireless charging support, environmental vision system, and electric seat controls are just a few of these advantages. Also, features such as adaptive cruise control, blind-spot warning system, rear cross-traffic warning system, and static turn lights ensure driver and passenger safety.

The Fuel Consumption of the Hyundai Tucson

Now, we are going to focus on the fuel consumption of the Hyundai Tucson. We usually work on popular engine types and making analyses on them by checking details for an efficient fuel consumption analysis. While choosing the right car, you need specific and simple information. We use two main categories to make a useful distinction such as The Most Economical One and The Most Powerful One. Hyundai Tucson has got three standard engine varieties such as 1.6, 1.6 CRDi and 2.0 CRDi. We are going to analyse two of them as the most economical and the most powerful one. We can start with the most economical one which is 1.6 CRDi DCT. It is a four cylindered engine structure with a 1598 cm3 size. It is using a Diesel feed fuel system so we can say that it is a Diesel type engine. It can produce 136 HP and 4000 RPM Torque. According to the official factory data, 1.6 CRDi has got a 5,0lt/100km (which refers to 56 MPG in the UK) fuel consumption rate in Urban usage. However, this fuel consumption performance decreasing to 5,0lt/100km (which refers to 56 MPG in the UK) in Extra Urban usage such as Highways or Long-Distance Trip. When we combine these two fuel consumption data, we get a 4,0lt/100km (which refers to 71 MPG in the UK) average consumption rate. Now we will focus on the most powerful engine, which is 2.0 CRDi. It has got a four cylindered engine structure with a 1995 cm3 size. It is a petrol type engine which produces 185 Horsepower and 2750 RPM Torque. 2.0 CRDi has got a 5,0lt/100km (which refers to 56 MPG in the UK) fuel consumption in Urban usage. On the other hand, this fuel consumption rate decreasing to 5,0lt/100km (which refers to 56 MPG in the UK) in Extra Urban usage. When we gather these two fuel consumption performance data, we get a 5,0lt/100km (which refers to 56 MPG in the UK) average fuel economy.
