Hyundai Motor in the UK has added a fifth powertrain option to the Hyundai Tucson compact SUV. A 141PS 1.7-litre turbo diesel engine with seven-speed double clutch transmission (7DCT) and two-wheel drive (2WD) is available to order in the UK priced from GBP24,570.
Hyundai says its in-house developed 7DCT system provides improved fuel efficiency and lower CO2 emissions compared to a six-speed automatic transmission – emitting only 129g of CO2 and offering fuel consumption of 57.6 mpg on a combined cycle. The turbo diesel engine provides a maximum torque of 340 Nm over a wide rev range of 1,750 rpm to 2,500 rpm.
