The Exter has been revealed via images and also bookings are now open with an amount of Rs 11,000. The Exter comes with 3 powertrain options - 1.2 l Kappa petrol engine (E20 Fuel Ready) with choice of 5-speed manual transmission & AMT and 1.2 l Bi-fuel Kappa petrol and CNG with 5-speed Manual transmission.

The design includes the latest Parametric design language which has been seen on other Hyundai cars too. There is a Parametric grille and a C pillar while the front end gets projector headlights and LED DRLs. SUV-like design elements like a skid plate, roof rails etc are also given.

The Exter also has diamond-cut alloys while the ground clearance also seems ample from the image. Interior and feature details have not been revealed as yet but we expect features like a touchscreen, wireless charging, connected car technology and a rearview camera display plus more. Expect 6 airbags in the top-end trim too.

The Exter would be launched in August and will be the entry-level offering from Hyundai in India being placed at the start of the SUV lineup. The micro SUV segment has been expanding with the Punch from Tata and Magnite from Nissan. Hence, the Hyundai Exter will be another big seller for the carmaker looking at the segment volumes.
