With the automatic, depending on the variant, you’ll have to cover 1.43 lakh to 1.55 lakh km with the Tucson diesel to recover the extra price you pay upfront over the Tucson petrol.
Should You Buy Hyundai Tucson Petrol Or Diesel?
WIth a kilometre-to-breakeven figure of 1.43 lakh to 1.55 lakh kilometres, it is hard to recommend the Turcson turbo diesel over the Tucson normal petrol. However, the Tucson turbo diesel automatic offers a significant advantage when it comes to outright torque. With a torque-to-weight ratio of 260Nm/tonne, the Tucson diesel is capable of overtaking slow moving traffic and hauling 5 passengers and their luggage with ease. In comparison, the Tucson normal petrol offers a torque-to-weight ratio of just 125.5Nm/tonne.
Furthermore, unlike the Alcazar, both the petrol and diesel Tucson come with a torque converter automatic transmission. Hence, reliability will not be a concern if you plan on owning the Tucson for the long term. But if you want all-wheel-drive capabilities for your weekend trips, then your choice is limited to the Tucson Signature AWD turbo diesel automatic variant as the Tucson normal petrol automatic does not offer all-wheel-drive.
