The production-spec Hyundai Alcazar has been revealed ahead of its launch in our market in the coming weeks. While the new three-row SUV is based on the same platform as the
Creta, there are a number of differences between the two models.rn
2021 Hyundai Alcazar: Enigne
rnThe Alcazar will be available in both petrol and diesel engine options. The Alcazar will run on a more powerful version of the 2.0-liter four-cylinder. Seen in Elantra and Tucson, which now produces 159 hp and 192 Nm (7 hp more than Elantra and Tucson). This will also help provide greater differentiation to customers, as many of them see the total engine displacement in proportion to the vehicle's position.rnrnOn the other hand, the diesel engine is the same 1.5-liter Creta's four-cylinder turbocharged unit that produces 115 hp and 250 Nm, although it is tuned differently. Both engines are available with a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic.rnrn
