The wait is finally over. Hyundai has announced the pricing for the Alcazar SUV with a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine. The Hyundai Alcazar 1.5 turbo petrol retails with a price tag of INR 16.74 lakh for the entry-level 7-seater Prestige manual variant. The prices go all the way upto INR 20.25 lakh for the top-spec Alcazar Signature (O) six-seat automatic.
Hyundai Alcazar Gets New Engine
Hyundai has already started off with the bookings for the Alcazar 1.5 turbo. Furthermore, the deliveries will most likely commence later this month. The new 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine is the replacement of the ageing 2.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol. This motor makes 159 HP and 192 Nm. These figures are up by 1hp and 61Nm. We will also get to see the same 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine in the all-new Verna that debuts on March 21. Hyundai will also use the same engine in the Creta SUV and even in Kia’s line-up, including the Seltos and the Carens.
Hyundai mentioned that the new 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine is both RDE-compliant and also E20 (Ethanol) fuel ready. Customers get to have gearbox choices as a six-speed manual and a new 7-speed DCT that replaces the six-speed torque converter automatic available with the 2.0 petrol.
Hyundai Alcazar: what else is new?
The Alcazar 1.5 turbo-petrol now benefits from integrated start-stop tech. As for the safety features, the Alcazar now also gets six airbags, including side and curtain airbags, as standard across all variants. The Alcazar diesel continues with the tried and tested 1.5-litre engine. It will come with a six-speed manual and a six-speed torque converter automatic option.
Hyundai Alcazar Other Options
Hyundai’s three-row SUV will position itself below Tucson in Hyundai India’s line-up. It will rival the likes of the Hector Plus, the Innova Hycross, the Tata Safari and the Mahindra XUV700.
