The 1.5-litre four-cylinder diesel makes 116hp at 4,000rpm and 250Nm from 1,500 to 2,750rpm. The petrol is the smoother, more powerful engine, and the diesel is the efficient one for long drives.

I am a 67-year-old driver of the Alcazar. I have completed 38000 km in 3 years, driving solo with my wife to places like Ranikhet from Hyderabad. The Alcazar DCT (O) Signature variant is sleek and effortless to drive. It has a comfortable rear seat and sufficient boot space due to folding last row seats. The car has good torque and power, especially on slopes. It is smooth with good pick-up and a small turning radius, making it easy to manage in traffic. The sunroof adds to the experience, and the instruments are easy to handle. I get a mileage of approx 18-20 kpl at a constant cruise of 80 kmph.

Hyundai Alcazar is a perfect mix of style, comfort, and features. It looks super cool outside with a bold front grille and sleek LED lights. Inside, it's just as impressive with premium materials, lots of legroom, and lots of safety features.

It is an amazing package. It is feature rich and it has outstanding styling. It also has better mileage than it's competeors and has great performance. Also it is about 5 lakh cheaper than safari and Xuv700. Even the maintenance is very less and very much reliable car.

Hyundai Alcazar is an excellent family car from looks to driving, and it maintains its 4.8-star rating for a reason. As a family car, it's comfortable, spacious, and dual-use. The cabin is spacious for comfortable indoor travel and luggage for long-distance travel. The 6 or 7-seater layouts allow for all necessary occupants to be comfortable, and the cabin materials make for a premium feel.

The Hyundai Alcazar shines as a well-rounded, premium-feeling family SUV?strong on comfort, features, and highway touring. It?s not the most spacious or fuel-efficient option, and its price tags above rivals. But if you prioritize comfort, tech, and a refined experience, it remains a compelling choice in its class.

With a budget of Rs 23–24 lakh, should I consider the Hyundai Alcazar Turbo Petrol DCT or the Kia Seltos GTX Petrol, comparing both the IVT and DCT options? My annual driving is approximately 6,000–7,000 km, and I would like a detailed comparison focusing on long-term ownership over 10–15 years, reliability, maintenance costs, transmission durability, fuel efficiency and overall value for money. I would also like to understand the practical differences between Hyundai’s K2 and Kia’s K3 platforms, particularly in terms of structural strength, safety, ride comfort, handling and long-term durability. Given my relatively low annual usage and preference for hassle-free ownership, which car and transmission combination would make the most sense within my budget?

•2d

Our top recommendation is the Kia Seltos GTX Petrol IVT. It is likely to be the most sensible combination of performance, comfort, running costs and long-term mechanical simplicity for your usage.The Hyundai Alcazar Turbo DCT is tempting because of its larger cabin, more powerful engine and three-row practicality. However, unless you regularly need the third row, I don't think it offers enough additional value to justify choosing it over the Seltos.There is also an important distinction between the Seltos IVT and DCT: for your relatively low annual mileage and long ownership horizon, I'd favour the IVT even though the DCT is considerably more engaging.The Seltos has moved to the new K3 platform in its second generation, while the Alcazar continues on the K2 architecture. Interestingly, the K3 platform's biggest practical advantage might not be structural strength but its overall refinement. It absorbs bumps more effectively than the previous generation while retaining good body control and high-speed stability.All things considered, the Seltos in its IVT guise makes for a better buy.

I’m planning to buy a seven-seater and don’t have a particular preference between an MPV and an SUV. I’ve been looking at the Hyundai Alcazar and Tata Safari petrol as options. I’d appreciate your advice on these cars.

We would recommend the Kia Carens Clavis instead of your mentioned choices. Assuming the third row will be used frequently, the Clavis features better space and comfort compared to the Alcazar and Safari. The Clavis also has a better ride than both, and with three rows up, it has decent space behind the backrests for soft luggage. You also get a choice of powertrains between EV, petrol and diesel. Performance of the Clavis is strong even with three rows full, and being a Kia, the equipment and features on offer are very good. If you can stretch your budget, the Mahindra XUV 7XO is also a very strong choice. Gets a roomy cabin with a better third row than the Alcazar and Safari, and superb ride quality and engine performance. Both the petrol and diesel engines are powerful and refined, and it makes for a strong package.

Hi Autocar Team, I am planning to buy a seven-seater and am confused between the Toyota Innova Hycross and Hyundai Alcazar. I like almost everything about the Alcazar, but my only concern is the long-term durability of its DCT. As for the Hycross, my budget only allows me to consider the GX variant, which lacks many features. Kindly advise me on which one I should choose. My driving style is simple and non-aggressive. I drive around 8-10 km daily in the NCR region, with occasional family highway trips of up to 500 km. My average monthly running is around 1,200 km.

•3w

Go for the Toyota Innova Hycross GX since your usage pattern is simple, with a family focus and the occasional 500km highway trip. The Hycross is the better long-term ownership proposition. It is more spacious, more comfortable and more reliable. The Alcazar is a good car, but the third row is tight, and the DCT is not the ideal gearbox for your usage. The Hycross GX may not have many features, but it gets the fundamentals right. It is a proper seven-seater with a comfortable third row, a smooth petrol engine and Toyota's reputation for reliability. For your usage, that matters more than features. The Alcazar is more feature-rich, but it is ultimately a smaller car with a less comfortable third row.

I am planning to buy a new SUV under Rs 30 lakh and am open to both five- and seven-seater options. I have tried the Toyota Innova HyCross non-hybrid, Mahindra XUV 7XO, Hyundai Alcazar, Kia Seltos and Renault Duster, but I am confused about which one to choose. My main priorities are space, comfort and a good engine. My running is not very high, at just under 1,000km a month. Please advise.

Go for the Toyota Innova HyCross non-hybrid. Your priorities are space, comfort and a good engine, and the HyCross delivers on all three. It is one of the most spacious cars in the segment, with a genuinely usable third row and a comfortable ride that makes it an excellent family car. The petrol engine is smooth, refined and well suited to your running of under 1,000 km a month, where the hybrid premium is harder to justify.The Mahindra XUV 7XO is a strong alternative with a more powerful engine and a more feature-rich cabin, but the HyCross has the edge on space, comfort and long-term ownership experience.The Hyundai Alcazar and Kia Seltos are good cars, but they do not offer the same level of space or comfort, and the Renault Duster is more of a driver's car than a family car. The Toyota car mentioned above is the car you will be happiest with after five years of ownership.

I read that Hyundai launched lounge edition for creta and alcazar. Just wanted to know, whether this is just an cosmetic upgrade or something has changed functionally too?
