Dear kurian...Hyundai would rather love to sell this car for 7.5L in India and put the crappy Safaris and Scorpios out of business. But, alas...our government doesnt want to let it happen. In India its still Customer= Kasht se mar...its the tax that makes these cars so expensive in India. So stick to Dubai for the time being.:-)

Hyundai is not cheating. It's the tax that makes cars like Pajero, and other cars costlier than they really are.

Very Tr, Its starting from 49000 AED in Gulf with petrol and automatic transmission.

Hi Kurian,
U guys r lucky, paying just 7.5 lacs for a Automatic Tucson that costs 17 YES **17** lacs here in India. But the Honda CRV Auto(petrol) costs even more, about 19 Lacs. Gives a whole new dimension to the word fleecing...But i still wanna get it and definitely Automatic coz too much traffic everywhere, so it's much more convenient. Seems like still some time before they launch the Automatic here. Any suggestions on how to get it earlier here ?

Hi Anuj,
I dont think I would be moving to India in the next couple of years, So I still would be using it for a while.
For India my personal opinion is to go in for the Manual version, else fuel would be an issue. Here in the Gulf we drive at 120 on smooth roads & the cost of fuel is less too,its not the same in India.
Just to give u an indicative price in Dubai on the Tucson, 4WD,Automatic, sunroof, CD player, power mirrors and windows costs 68000 AED approx 7.5 lac, what are u paying?

Hi Kurianjose. Read ur review. I agree with u fully on the pricing, but what to do if u wanna the Tucson here(I'd rather have the Automatic)?? We have to pay. I absolutely loved the front seating position..v comfortable. So i'm nearly finalised on it..unless u r ready to ship ur AUTOMATIC Tucson nd sell the same to me here @ Indian prices :) Deal or what ?

Dear Friends,
I have written a review on Hyundai Tucson and look forward to your comments on it.
Review Link: Hyundai is fleecing the Indian market... This sells for half the price the world over
Thanks.
