What is miles per pound?

Fuel economy

A more stringent standard for fuel economy (WLTP) was introduced from September 2017, and this model was not required to undergo that test. Its fuel economy measured under the previous test system was 30 - 37 mpg. However these figures are less likely to be achievable in real world driving and so should never be compared to another car's mpg which was measured under the newer, more realistic WLTP system.

Compared to similar sized alternatives the i800 is great value, especially considering the high level of generous kit. As a new buy it undercuts the competition considerably while as a used purchase it makes even more sense. It’s fairly economical and the five-year unlimited mileage warranty offers superb peace of mind should anything go wrong. Road tax isn’t particularly cheap but an insurance group rating of 14 is on par with other large people carriers.

For a large people carrier the i800 is fairly economical, averaging 33mpg and the 75-litre tank means it can cover 560-litres between fill-ups. It emits 225g/km of CO2 which makes it more frugal and environmentally-friendly than similarly powered rivals.

Like other Hyundai models, the i800 is covered by a five-year warranty that is not subject to mileage restrictions. The 2.5-litre diesel engine is shared with the H1 panel van so should be reliable and durable.
