2 Answers
The oil models used for the Mistra are 5W20 and 5W30. The Mistra has a body length, width, and height of 4710mm, 1820mm, and 1470mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2770mm, a minimum ground clearance of 152mm, a fuel tank capacity of 62 liters, a trunk capacity of 526 liters, and a curb weight of 1481kg. The front suspension of the Mistra is a MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension is a multi-link independent suspension. It is equipped with a 1.8L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 143PS, a maximum power of 105kW, and a maximum torque of 176Nm. It is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
I have been driving the Hyundai Mistra for over five years and always use either 5W-20 or 5W-30 oil grades, depending on the manual's recommendations and the year. These oil viscosities are moderate, ensuring quick cold starts, good engine lubrication, and reduced wear. After switching, my fuel consumption dropped from 9L to around 7L, and the ride feels much smoother. I stick to changing the oil every 5,000 kilometers, opting for synthetic oils like Mobil or Shell for better durability and peace of mind. Avoid using the wrong grade, such as 10W-40, as it can increase friction, damage parts, and shorten engine life. New owners should check the manual or consult a 4S store to avoid issues. Choosing the right oil significantly improves car performance, makes the engine quieter, and simplifies maintenance.
