What owners and experts like about the Hyundai Alcazar
Highway mileage
Strongly positivebased on 5 reviews
“Overall, including highways and city, I'm getting an average of 12 to 13. On the highway, with my somewhat heavy-footed driving I've gotten 16-17; when the elders at home drive gently, I've seen 21-22 average on this car”
Highway stability
Strongly positivebased on 5 reviews
“What that firmness also translates into is a nice confident ride when you're on the highway — when you're on a nice smooth section of road it sits nice and planted, and it is very, very reassuring, very confidence-inspiring”
City drivability
Strongly positivebased on 9 reviews
“In Eco and City, responses are very gradual, power flows in a very unhurried manner, and even the gearbox is not reactive to every input... that is something you would expect a normal family car to be, and it does the job just fine”
Fit & finish
Strongly positivebased on 5 reviews
“Fit and finish is quite good. Material quality is quite good. Premiumness is felt in the materials. No noise anywhere. If I touch the materials, wherever it should be soft-touch, it's soft-touch — the steering is fully soft-touch”
Engine refinement
Strongly positivebased on 6 reviews
“In slow-moving traffic you really won't have a problem with performance — yes the 1.5-liter diesel makes only 115hp, but in practice you get all the power you really need. The six-speed gearbox plays its supporting role well too.”
Boot space
Generally positivebased on 13 reviews
“On a full load we were four of us in the car and the rear seat, the third row, folded — I mean it took the entire equipment, right from our luggage to the camera equipment, and everyone was really [comfortable]”
Where the Hyundai Alcazar falls short
Not every point below is a serious flaw. Some are mixed opinions where reviewers disagreed, and the label says which.
Ride comfort
Generally negativebased on 7 reviews
“The suspension is on the stiffer side... the ride suffers at low speeds, and the car does crash through the bumps. Yes, you can feel the thuds... there is some vertical movement as well. So, yeah, the ride isn't the best here”
Drivetrain reliability
Mixed reviewsbased on 12 reviews
“because this is a DCT, the gearbox shudders on shifts... at low speeds there's this bit of shudder... it's not very quick with deciding which gear it wants to be in at lower speeds”
