The Hyundai Tucson’s fuel economy often falls short of manufacturer claims in Pakistani city traffic due to frequent stop-and-go conditions, heavy congestion, and idling in traffic jams. These factors increase fuel consumption as the engine works harder to accelerate repeatedly and maintain low-speed movement. Additionally, carrying extra passengers o r luggage and using accessories like air conditioning add to fuel demand. Drivers can improve fuel efficiency by maintaining steady speeds, avoiding unnecessary idling, and ensuring regular vehicle maintenance.
