Just driven 500 Kms, Pros: 1. Butter smooth engine and gearbox 2. Awesome Looks 3. Quality is Top Class since this is from Hyundai, also vast service network 4. Very Compact to drive in the city, Elderly Parents, ladies, the new car owners can drive easily in the city and highway. Easy to Park in the city 5. Base variant, but get ALL the latest features including Panoramic Sunroof, ambient lighting, telescopic staring, Auto AC, Keyless entry, TPMS, 10.2 Inc entertainment screen with blue link to control car cover mobile 6. 200 MM Ground clearance, no need to worry of Big humps and potholes 7. Not as expensive as Safari, Hector, and Harrier 8. Proven engine with millions of kilometers from Creta owners, we have hardly heard about issues in this engine/gearbox/cars 9. No vision block while driving like Safari/Harrier 10. Elderly parents/short height people can climb up and get down easily unlike safari 11. Post 30 Km/h OR post-1600 RPM car has Awesome power 12. Best in segment boot space with all seats up (almost nil in Safari/XUV700) 13. Easy to maintain interiors with dark colors unlike white/ cream colors in Safari / XUV700 14. Very soft suspension, good for bad road 15. ORVM /IRVM coverage is very good and the turning radius is also good for the city use 16. Waiting period is just 3 weeks unlike XUV700 with 1+ year 17. NVH level is AWESOME better than any diesel car in the segment or above 18. Awesome Mileage ( My brand new car gives 17+ with 70% high traffic Highway and 30% City), post 2nd service will go over 19+ for sure. 19. Good Resale value (My guess) since this is the big brother of Creta 20. Very good headroom in all 3 rows 21. since has a good size boot 3rd rows of passengers would be a little safer compared to safari/XUV700 with no boot (I Guess) 22. Seats Fold completely FLAT in both 3rd row and 2nd row, hence easy sleep / take rest on emergencies 23. Very easy to go to the 3rd row due to tumbling seats from both the sides, not there in XUV700/Safari CONS: 1. Not Spacious like Safari/ XUV700 2. Engine struggles below 20Km/h, will force to go to 1st Gear unlike Safari/XUV700 3. Hyundai Labor cost during services is a BOMB 4. NOT for a family with all Tall members (above 5.8), very Cramped compared to safari /XUV 700 5. 3rd row is for Purely for Kids below 10 years or short people below 5.5 feet (that too only when 2nd row is pulled all the way front) 6. No BIG SUV feeling here (Just looks exactly like Creta from the front) unlike Safari/XUV700 7. Person sitting in the middle does not get a headrest nor 3 point seat belt 8. 3rd-row seat is too upright, and not comfortable for the long drive. 9. 2nd-row seat does not recline much, just at a relaxed position, cannot sleep like in Hector 10. With a full load and on low speeds, frequent gear shifts needed 11. 2nd-row seats are not wide, and sitting 3 is not as comfortable as Safari 12. Cannot go fast over a bad road/small humps, the passenger will be thrown up 13. When people see from front, many will ask is this Creta or assume it to be Creta and ask questions

I own the diesel Alcazar signature model, I bought it 3 month back, it's a beautiful suv with all premium features, one can expect excellent success with best features best fuel economy.

Pros : Fantastic interior, smooth drive and feature loaded. Build and Finish is really good. Blue link features and function are fantastic. Bose Audio is really awesome sound quality says it all. Cabin Illumination is good. Interior colors are pleasing. Seating is comfortable. Cons :Feels a bit underpowered on hills while climbing. Rest is simple fantastic to drive . Headlights could be better .

Fantastic ride in the city and and on the highways. Outstanding features like 360 degree camera, overspeed warnings, air quality index and lock warning through blue link. Quiet and peaceful engine.

We booked this car recently. Me and my wife took test drive.As we are mainly city drivers, it suits our need. Though comparatively shorter than it's 7 seater rivals, it has the largest wheel based than safari and XUV 700. Less body roll than safari and XUV700.Interior is far premium than XUV700.Sufficient power output petrol model we drove.Yes at lower speed you may feel a bit less exciting to drive. But overall nice car

Car delivery experience was awesome. Purchased the value for money variant diesel prestige 7 seater manual variant. The white colour adds beauty to the car. The 1,5 engine does the job with 7 seats. It never felt underpowered. Good ground clearance with a massive panoramic sunroof. First service is free so no issue with it. Pros: Comfortable driving experience, sunroof, mileage 23 km on the highway and in city 18 km/l Cons: should have side curtain airbags in base variant and rain-sensing wipers too are missing

Acceleration is amazing. It is barely a week old and just drove around 200 kms in the city. After 1st servicing I am sure mileage will increase, but as of now I am getting a steady 10.5 to 11 km/l with AC in 20 degrees auto mode. I have seen many youtube videos where they mentioned that diesel engine is a lag. Alcazar is just 80 kgs heavier than a Creta. So imagine driving a Creta with a 80 kgs co-passenger. Nobody ever complained of the Creta being underpowered. I drove the Harrier and Safari and due to the hydraulic steering it becomes a bit heavy to drive in city traffic. 168 bhp on a Safari is deliciously good for performance enthusiasts but then they should also consider a 550 kgs heavier vehicle. Alcazar is such a joy to drive in the city traffic as well as lanes with lots of turns. Acceleration of the car in comfort mode is mind blowing which I tested with 4 people seated. I don't understand which people find Alcazar diesel underpowered. This is amazingly tuned engine by Hyundai and the 6 speed torque converter automatic is such a blessing. This is definitely the best and a very powerful SUV with the most features in its segment. I drove and also test drove many models after which I considered Alcazar. Diesel model after 1st servicing should give 14-15 km/l in city and 19-20 km/l in highway if driven in a relaxed manner. Using sports mode and driving at 150 kmph will of course reduce fuel efficiency. I will 100% suggest Alcazar to everyone. Easy handling, great comfort, best in segment mileage, great looks and amazing diesel automatic engine makes Alcazar a must buy.

This machine glides with at most comfort to offer while traveling. Most fuel efficient and the smoothest engine. It has adequate power to overtake when needed just hit the pedal and the power is delivered. The Torque converter Automatic gear box is a blessing to its most refined engine. It knows when to down shift and when to upshift. Cons: The centre console of the cabin fit is not proper makes sounds when pressed. Other than that i don't think I had any issue with the vehicle. Final remarks: If you're looking for a suv with good amount of space with a balance of fuel efficiency , power , comfort. Then your choice ends here.

Eagerly waiting for Alcazar but the price is too high I expect to buy it at 15 lakhs but the price is very huge. All are good. This car would be the dream car of many with features.
