Want the best acceleration, control, comfort and mileage from your Hyundai car? The answer may be simply maintaining the correct tyre pressure! Here’s a detailed look at the recommended tyre pressures for all 13 Hyundai models currently on sale in India.

1. Hyundai Alcazar tyre pressure

The diesel variants of the new Hyundai Alcazar get a sealant-type tyre puncture repair kit, which they call a ‘Tyre mobility kit’, instead of a spare tyre. Removing the spare tyre and omitting the panoramic sunroof is part of a weight-saving measure to improve the SUV’s mileage.

2. Hyundai Exter tyre pressure

The Hyundai Exter has a staggered recommended tyre pressure when fully loaded, with the rear tyres needing a higher pressure than the front. The Hy-CNG Duo variants, fitted with two 30-litre CNG tanks instead of one 60-litre CNG tank, do not get a spare wheel. Instead, a tyre puncture repair kit is offered.

9. Hyundai Tucson tyre pressure

The Hyundai Tucson is the only model in the company’s lineup to get a full-sized 18-inch alloy wheel as a spare. However, space is compromised due to the drivetrain parts in the diesel AWD variant, so a space-saver steel wheel is offered instead. For the space-saver spare wheel in the Tucson, Hyundai recommends maintaining an extremely high pressure of 60 psi.

Variant		Platinum	Signature	Signature Diesel AWD
Full-Size	Wheel Type	18-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels	18-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels	18-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels

Variant		N6 N8
Full-Size	Wheel Type	16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels
	Tyre Size	215/60R18

Hyundai tyre mobility kit - How to use it

The tyre mobility kit is, in essence, a sealant-type puncture repair kit offered in Hyundai cars, which consists of the following:

A 12v air compressor with a sealant bottle housing. It has an analogue gauge and a button to reduce tyre pressure manually.
A tyre sealant bottle - this contains a sticky liquid which can fill small puncture holes and seal them up quickly
Air hose
Speed limit label

How to use the Hyundai tyre mobility kit in case of a minor puncture:

Shake the sealant bottle before using it so that the sealant liquid is mixed properly
Place the sealant bottle in the specially designed housing on the compressor unit. It should be kept upright during operation.
Connect the yellow-coloured nozzle of the air hose to the sealant bottle. The clip secures it when it clicks into place.
Screw the other end of the air hose to the tyre valve
The power switch on the compressor should be in the off position before connecting it to any of the 12v sockets of the car
The compressor should be used only when the car’s engine/electrical systems are completely switched on
Switch the compressor on and let it run till the recommended tyre pressure is achieved. This could take up to seven minutes.
Hyundai recommends running the air compressor continuously for only seven minutes; otherwise, it will overheat and may be damaged.
After disconnecting the tyre mobility kit and securely placing it back in its packaging, drive below the recommended speed mentioned on the speed limit label. The speed limit warning label is a sticker that can be stuck to the centre of the steering wheel, on the driver's side inside the front windshield, or the driver's side sunshade as a reminder. Exceeding this speed limit can lead to instability, loss of traction and increased braking distances.
It is recommended to call roadside assistance if: a) puncture holes are larger than 0.25 inches/6mm in diameter, b) the puncture is on the tyre sidewall, or c) the tyre is losing pressure even after using the tyre mobility kit.

Maintaining the correct pressures in your car’s tyres helps it deliver performance and mileage figures as advertised by the manufacturer. Correctly maintained pressures will also ensure the best comfort and predictable handling characteristics. Improperly filled tyres can increase costs due to lower mileage and wear and tear; keep them properly inflated and see your savings increase too!
