Hyundai Exter

Hyundai’s smallest ‘big’ vehicle is the micro SUV, Exter. Oddball design aside, the Exter ticks all the right boxes for someone looking at an affordable large vehicle. The cabin is not only spacious, it is also well laid out, practical and upmarket. The Exter offers a CNG option (very important), a very comfortable ride and sizeable boot for weekend runs. Although crash test safety ratings are questionable, the Exter’s value card does the trick for new car buyers. The dual CNG cylinders ensure that boot space is not compromised much.

Hyundai Exter Latest Update

Last Updated on 4th Apr'25: Hyundai re-jigged the variants of the Exter earlier this year, and it also introduced two new variants as well; the SX Tech and the S+. The S variant was also updated to include new features, while the CNG powertrain option was added to the S Executive and S+ Executive variants. The powertrains, transmission and other mechanicals remain unchanged.

Hyundai India has launched two additional variants of the Exter model: the S+ and S(O)+. The S+ variant, equipped with a manual transmission, is priced at Rs 7.86 lakh, while the S(O)+ variant, which comes with an AMT option, is priced at Rs 8.43 lakh. Both variants now feature the convenience of an electric sunroof.

Pros & Cons of Exter

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

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

Should I buy the Exter?

The Hyundai Exter is one of the most feature-rich vehicles in its segment. It also has a very appealing pricing point. The Exter is an attractive option for those looking for a small SUV. It offers great safety features, a refined engine, and a spacious cabin. It is available in a variety of variations to suit a wide range of customer needs. Hyundai is more dedicated to quality and refinement than its rivals in the segment. This adds to Exter's attractiveness. But, if you want to buy a turbo petrol engine then the Citroen C3 can be an option for you.

Great Family Car

I have bought new cars twice, and both were great for my family and me. I exchanged my Exter after eleven months and bought the same CNG model again just 26 days ago.
