South Korean automaker, Hyundai, is set to launch the much-awaited micro-SUV in India tomorrow. The Exter will be the brand’s entry-level SUV and will sit below the Venue. The bookings for the five-seater SUV have already commenced against a token amount of Rs. 11,000 and the deliveries are expected to begin soon.
Hyundai has already revealed the design as well as the interior of the car. It sports a parametric pattern on the front fascia, along with roof rails and H-shaped LED DRLs. The headlamps are housed on the front bumpers similar to the Venue, and a dual-tone cladding can also be seen on the lower front bumper.
Inside, the Exter will come equipped with an eight-inch touchscreen infotainment screen, a fully digital driver’s display, a voice-enabled sunroof, automatic climate control, a wireless charger, and cruise control. Apart from this, the manufacturer will also offer a first-in-segment dashcam with dual cameras, three-point seat belt, TPMS, and six airbags as standard across all variants.
At the heart of the Exter will be a 1.2-litre NA petrol engine that is tuned to produce 82bhp and 114Nm of torque. This engine will come mated to a five-speed manual gearbox and an AMT unit. Also on offer will be a CNG version that will generate 68bhp and 95Nm of torque.
Upon its launch, the Exter will lock horns with the Tata Punch, Maruti Suzuki Ignis, Nissan Magnite, and Renault Kwid.
