Hyundai Exter Overview

The Hyundai Exter is a micro SUV that parks like a small car yet sits tall inside. It seats five in an airy cabin, helped by the high roof and big glass. The short body slips into tight city gaps with ease. It suits buyers who want their first SUV without a large footprint or a large budget.

Power comes from a 1.2 litre petrol making 82 bhp, offered with a manual or an AMT. There is also a factory CNG version making 68 bhp for the lowest fuel bills. All three keep the drive simple and light for town use. Higher trims even add a sunroof, which is rare this low in the market.

The Exter sells in 12 trims from ₹5.81 Lakh to ₹9.61 Lakh ex-showroom. Grade names run HX2 through HX10, with AMT and CNG copies mixed in. Many buyers settle on the mid HX6 for its sunroof and fuller kit. Check the Exter price for your own city once a grade appeals to you.

The Hyundai Exter is easy to own beyond its size. The 391 litre boot is generous for a car this short, and the raised seat aids the view out. Six airbags feature across the range, which is strong for the money. To see how the equipment climbs, open the Exter feature walkthrough grade by grade.

Running costs stay low whichever engine you pick, and Hyundai's service reach keeps upkeep simple. Resale holds up well, since small SUVs stay in demand with used buyers. For a tall, safe and cheap first SUV, the Exter makes a strong case in the entry class today.
