Hyundai Ix35 Fuel Consumption

The Hyundai ix35 has a range of fuel consumption figures depending on the engine and drivetrain options.

For the most economical diesel variant, the 1.7 CRDi 2WD manual, the official combined fuel economy is 54.3 mpg (UK rating), with real-world averages typically around 50 mpg. Extra-urban (highway) driving can see up to 58.9 mpg, while urban conditions drop to about 47.1 mpg[1]. Another source cites a similar figure of 53 mpg for the 1.7-litre diesel[5]. The more powerful 2.0 CRDi 2WD returns an official average of 47.9–51.4 mpg, while the 4WD version is less efficient, at around 36–40 mpg in real use[7].

For petrol models, the standard 1.6 GDi 2WD is officially rated at 41.5–44.1 mpg, but real-world data shows 32–33 mpg. The Blue Drive variant, equipped with stop-start technology, improves the official combined to 44 mpg[7][5]. The 2.0L petrol model has an average combined consumption of around 30 mpg (US), translating to approximately 35–38 mpg (UK), although real world figures are often lower, with combined usage around 25.6–35.5 mpg[2][6][4][7].

Owner-reported averages (all engines and years combined) span from about 24 to 29 mpg (US), or roughly 28–35 mpg (UK)[3]. Real-world results frequently fall below manufacturers’ ratings, with the most efficient diesels performing closest to advertised figures, and petrol engines exhibiting a greater gap.
