Does the Hyundai Tucson’s weight and size affect its fuel economy on Pakistani roads?

Given the Tucson’s relatively heavy curb weight and larger dimensions, how do these factors impact its fuel efficiency on Pakistan’s varied road conditions? Does carrying extra passengers o r luggage further reduce mileage significantly?

Yes, the Tucson’s relatively heavy curb weight and larger size mean the engine needs to work harder, especially during acceleration o r climbing inclines, which reduces fuel efficiency. Pakistani roads, which often feature uneven surfaces and inclines, further stress the engine. Carrying extra passengers o r heavy luggage exacerbates this, as the vehicle’s payload increases, demanding more fuel. Maintaining proper tire pressure and removing unnecessary weight can help improve mileage.
