Hyundai have discontinued the 2.0L normal petrol engine from the Alcazar lineup. The recently launched Alcazar turbo with its 1.5L turbo petrol engine replaces the older 2.0L normal petrol engine.

Hyundai Alcazar 2.0L Normal Petrol Discontinued

Hyundai have removed the 2.0L normal petrol engine from the Alcazar model page and the engine option is no longer present in the Alcazar brochure. The older 2.0L normal petrol engine is now replaced by a new 1.5L turbo petrol engine, which will also power the upcoming 2023 Hyundai Verna. The new 1.5L turbo petrol engine of the Alcazar produces equivalent power but substantially higher torque over the 2.0L normal petrol engine.

Take a look at the engine specifications of the Alcazar turbo compared to the normal petrol:

HYUNDAI ALCAZAR PETROL SPECIFICATIONS
Engine	1.5L Turbo Petrol	Difference	2.0L Normal Petrol
Displacement	1482cc	517cc	1999cc
Power	160PS @ 5500rpm	1PS	159PS @ 6500rpm
Torque	253Nm @ 1500 - 3500rpm	62Nm	191Nm @ 4500rpm
Gearbox	6-speed MT / 7-speed DCT	-	6-speed MT / TC

The 1.5L turbo petrol engine produces 1PS extra power and 62Nm extra torque over the respective outputs of the 2.0L normal petrol engine. It is worth mentioning that the turbo petrol engine offers a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission whereas the 2.0L normal petrol engine offered a torque converter automatic transmission. While a torque converter automatic transmission generally offers poor efficiency in traffic conditions, they are more reliable over the long run than a dual-clutch transmission, which is known for excessive heating in heavy traffic conditions.
