Sabi roon sa kabilang forum (hacp).... Around P1.4M daw. Not sure what variant.....

8505:bat:

[eggman]

1.4M Pesos malamang ang 2 liter R-Series CDRI VGT M/T 2WD variant nyan at tataas hanggang 1.550M Pesos sa 4WD variant.

Napanood ko yung TV ads nito sa MBC Korea sa cable TV at ***y Utility Vehicle ang tawag nila sa Tucson ix(sana ganyan ang tawag dito imbes na plain Tucson lang) tapos si Britney Spears ang kumanta ng BGM nya.. Di naman sya ***y IMHO,tumaba nga lang but still sleek!

Hi,

Got my Tucson IX (silky bronze) last thursday. =) just like to ask if anyone knows how soon does it usually take for accessories to be available in the market? tucson IX doesnt come with mud guard and yesterday when it rained, it was pretty messy on the sides.

Guys, is this Vanilla White?

Just wanted to share pics of my Tucson ix GLS. Bought it from Hyundai Global City...delivered last Friday. Good service from the SA and staff.

Brought it to Big Bert's today for the OptiGuard program. Medyo maselan kaseng kulay ang black.

Will also need to replace the horn. Mahina...di bagay sa porma. Any recommendations?

As for the ride, so far so good. The looks on the other hand get a lot of compliments from everyone else.

Yun rin na pansin ko - hindi naman "mahina" pero "matinis" (isipin mo body builder katawan pero boses babae )

pero kung papalitan busina di ba nila ivovoid warranty?

[LadyRider]

Congrats Sir Bynnos! Really a very sleek ride you have! Looks like a mini Veracruz!

Hmm...same thing napansin ko with the Genesis Coupe

[bynnos]

Come to think of it, maybe we do need to verify with the dealer...unless some members here have experience on the matter...that changing the horn (which might require adding relays) will not void the warranty.

I checked with my dealer. Replacing the horn would void the warranty on the electrical...unless you get it replaced by them.

Problem is P3,500 daw ang busina...Fiamm and Steibel (not sure what models) lang daw available. And this price probably does not include the labor yet.

wow! congrats on your new ride!

how's your fuel consumption?

[Grey Thumper]

Tucson owners, na co-control ba ang iPod using the steering wheel controls, o volume lang? (i.e., aux in jack lang ba ang nasa Tucson, o talagang integrated ang iPod?)

[bynnos]

wow! congrats on your new ride!

how's your fuel consumption?

Thanks bro. The Tucson actually looks better in person than on pictures. You have to be up close and walk around the vehicle to really appreciate it.

As for consumption, I'm not really sure. I've had the car for 3 days and have not had the chance to drive around much. Also, medyo light driving lang while trying to familiarize with the vehicle.

At the moment, he onboard display is showing me between 16-19l/100km which is roughly 5-6km/L. Not sure how accurate ito but I'll know when I compute manually on my next full tank. Over time, fuel consumption should improve.

My wife and I just got our white 2010 Tucson GL M/T from Hyundai Balintawak last Saturday which she aptly christened as "Gandalf the White".

It is definitely a fantastic ride!

My only concern is the fuel consumption of the unit. Ive been getting an average of 14.2 l/100km on my meter. I drive the car daily from Makati to Q.C. mostly sticking to EDSA. I seldom go over 2k rpm to save on fuel, however, it appears that the car is gulping more gas under such condition. The primary reason why we chose a M/T unit is to be able to get better mileage per liter of gas.

Do you think that the Fuel Consumption of my unit would still improve?

I observed that most of the Tucson owners here have the A/T models. May I hear from the other M/T owners out there about their experiences with their respective units.
