Fuel economy

A more stringent standard for fuel economy (WLTP) was introduced from September 2017, and this model was not required to undergo that test. Its fuel economy measured under the previous test system was 31 - 32 mpg. However these figures are less likely to be achievable in real world driving and so should never be compared to another car's mpg which was measured under the newer, more realistic WLTP system.

Insurance group 12 and five-year warranty are very good for this class, but 25mpg from a diesel isn’t too clever. Hyundai dealers tend to offer value-for-money servicing.

Terracan is quite a polluting model. With an average of 232 g/km CO2 across the model line-up, its emissions are a little high for a large 4x4. However, it’s worth noting that the line up has a high number of diesel models, bringing the average down and giving buyers more choices of low-emission versions. Diesels typically produce less CO2 than petrol engines with similar power outputs.

The range is not very frugal, averaging 32 mpg.

Hyundai make generally very reliable cars and the five-year warranty is reassuring. Terracan has good panel fit and the interior is well put together, despite too much plastic and fake wood. No major problems reported from owners since it went on sale in 2003.
