What is the fuel consumption of the Tucson 2.0 manual 4WD?
3 Answers
Modern Tucson 2.0 manual transmission model has a fuel consumption of 9.1 liters per 100 kilometers, while the automatic transmission model consumes 11.1 liters per 100 kilometers. Here is more information about the older model of the Hyundai Tucson: 1. Model: The Tucson is a compact SUV under Hyundai. The older Tucson was equipped with a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine, and it was available in both front-wheel drive and four-wheel drive versions. 2. Power: The 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine of the older Tucson delivers 141 horsepower and a maximum torque of 184 Nm. It can output maximum power at 6000 rpm and maximum torque at 4500 rpm. This engine is paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic transmission.
I've been driving the Tucson 2.0L manual 4WD version for several years, with an average fuel consumption of around 8-10L per 100km. In heavy city traffic, it can go up to 11L, while on the highway at steady speeds, it drops to about 7L. The manual transmission offers more flexibility in gear shifting and is slightly more fuel-efficient than automatic, but the 4WD system adds noticeable resistance, especially when climbing or on slippery surfaces, consuming more fuel. I often take this SUV off-road, and the fuel costs aren't excessive—maintaining clean filters and good tires helps save some. Winter driving on snow is much more stable with 4WD, though the small fuel tank means frequent refueling. Overall, the fuel efficiency is decent, making it suitable for those who enjoy a sense of control.
As someone who often tinkers with cars, the fuel consumption of this vehicle is quite understandable. The 2.0L engine paired with a manual transmission, and the four-wheel drive burns a bit more fuel than two-wheel drive, generally averaging around 9L. Stop-and-go city driving can easily reach 10L, while smooth suburban driving can drop it to 8L. The vehicle's weight and drivetrain hold it back, but the engine efficiency isn't bad—regular oil changes and spark plug checks can save some fuel. Avoid frequent hard acceleration; just ease on the throttle. Manual operation is powerful in lower gears, not shying away from climbing hills, striking a balance between practicality and fun in terms of fuel consumption. With the right driving techniques, long-distance runs can further reduce the numbers.
