TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Hyundai Tucson

Hyundai Tucson Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Comment
	The redesign improved the Hyundai Tucson's fuel economy, but not by enough to rank it near the leaders. With the SE's 2.0-liter engine and six-speed automatic transmission, the Tucson rates 23 mpg city and 31 mpg highway with front-wheel drive and just 21/26 with all-wheel drive. Stepping up to the turbo 1.6-liter engine and seven-speed dual-clutch automated manual transmission improves these ratings to 25/30 with FWD and 24/28 with AWD. Alas, even though it has a larger, 2.5-liter engine the Mazda CX-5 achieves 26/33 with FWD and 24/30 with AWD. And the Honda CR-V, with a 2.4-liter engine, leads the class: 27/34 with FWD and 26/33 with AWD. Even with its uplevel engine the new Tucson doesn't approach these figures, especially not on the highway. The best suburban trip computer average I observed in a Tucson SE with FWD was 32 mpg. Decent, especially compared to the previous generation of compact crossovers, but others within the latest crop can travel at least a few more miles per gallon. see full Hyundai Tucson review

2010	4dr SUV 176-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I used to own a 2008 Scion xB and I would usually fill up every 6 days. My commute has not changed since buying the Tucson (neither has the size of the fuel tank as it is the same as my old Scion.) Now I fill up every 7 to 9 days depending. see full Hyundai Tucson review

2008	4dr Wagon turbocharged 210hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD	Better than 30 mpg on long trips, even with 75+mph average speeds as reported by the onboard computer. Fantastic given the performance available. see full Saab 9-3 review

2008	4dr Sedan turbocharged 210hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD	Very good considering the power. I average 32mpg doing mostly highway. I cruise at 75mph and like to rev the engine in the city. see full Saab 9-3 review
2008	4dr Wagon turbocharged 210hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD	Lots of variations on fuel economy as you can read. Driving style will make a big difference, using a lot of engine power uses gas, no way around that. Try to cruise between 1800-2300rpm, it gives good results. Cars have improved a lot in the last years, no way a 7 year old design can match a 2015 model. But It comes close! see full Saab 9-3 review
2008	4dr Sedan turbocharged 210hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD	I have been a tad disappointed in my newest car's fuel economy. My tuned to 340 hp 1995 Saab 900 SE was getting 29 mpg in mixed city/highway driving. Currently I am driving 75% city and suburban surface streets and the rest highway. This must explain my rather pedestrian 23 mpg current average. I did get 33 mpg on a fast long road haul to the east coast. see full Saab 9-3 review

2007	4dr Sedan turbocharged 210hp 2.0L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	25 to 30 mpg on regular gas, depending on how many highway miles per tank. This is my first car that takes regular in more than ten years, at least $0.20 a gallon cheaper than premium. see full Saab 9-3 review
