This includes a refreshed front and rear fascia, featuring a new front grille, updated headlamp assembly, and redesigned bumper. Additionally, at the rear, connected tail lamps similar to those on the Creta and a new bumper are anticipated.
Inside, the facelift is set to receive several updates. We can anticipate a new 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system seamlessly integrated with the instrument cluster, along with a fresh HVAC control panel and updated upholstery for both the seats and dashboard. As for features, dual-zone climate control, ventilated seats, and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are expected to be included as part of the equipment.
Presently, the Hyundai Alcazar boasts an array of features, including wireless charging, a panoramic sunroof, an 8-speaker BOSE premium sound system, charging ports on all three rows, a blind-view monitoring system, and more.
