Pros & Cons

Bolero Pros & Cons	Exter Pros & Cons	Punch EV Pros & Cons
Pros	Robust stance and rugged performance The body-on-frame chassis is abuse-friendly It offers practicality with 7 seats and tough build quality It has proven its worth in the rural areas, tier 2 & tier 3 cities The only SUV under Rs 10 lakh with a RWD drivetrain The rigid leaf spring suspension at the back and coil springs at the front can take rough roads with ease The 1.5-litre diesel engine is torquey and offers a decent performance for your daily work	It comes as a feature-loaded offering in its segment Offers largest boot space in the segment with 391 litres capacity The suspension is well-tuned to make it a perfect city car The AMTs are well tuned and offer a good driving experience The 1.2-litre, 4-cylinder NA petrol engine offers a good level of refinement Hyundai Exter’s interior is roomy as compared to its rivals A good number of safety features 6 airbags, ISOFIX child seat mount, ABS with EBD, ESC, TPMS, SOS Call and more The top-spec variant comes with a dual-camera dash cam Hyundai’s wide sales and service network is a boon for customers	-
Cons	It does not offer most of the modern features you get in other sub-4 meter cars The plastic quality feels cheap and panel gaps are evident It handles rough roads with ease but the ride quality on the tarmac is quite bumpy The top model is priced over Rs 10 lakh which does not offer much value for money considering the features it gets	The sharp lines and curves might not look pleasing to everyone It does not offer an option of either a turbo petrol or a diesel engine The rear row offers good legroom but the under-thigh support is not sufficient The 1.2-litre NA petrol engine is not much fun to drive on highways The cabin only offers an option of a black interior It misses on some features such as auto-dimming IRVM, 6-speaker music system, and split rear seat among others	-
