Hyundai Exter Compact SUV Gets Upgraded For 2026

After less than three years since its premiere, Hyundai has renewed its small SUV model Exter. It is a micro SUV shorter than 4 meters, which is made in India and exported to neighboring countries.

Visual changes primarily concern a different front bumper and grille, new 15-inch alloy wheels, a redesigned rear bumper, and a rear roof spoiler.

The interior features a new steering wheel, higher-quality materials, and new color combinations.

The driver’s seat now has an armrest, rear passengers get Type C USB ports; and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are now wireless via a portable adapter. A height-adjustable driver’s seat and adjustable rear-seat headrests are also standard on all variants.

Other features like an 8.0-inch touchscreen, an 8.0-inch digital driver display, cruise control, automatic air conditioning, wireless charging, and an optional sunroof remain as before. In terms of safety, six airbags, ESC, hill-start assist, and central locking come as standard. Higher variants also get a rear camera, automatic headlights, and more.

The offer includes a 1.2-liter atmospheric gasoline engine with 61 kW/83 hp and 114 Nm, as well as a 1.2-liter that also uses CNG (with 51 kW/69 hp and 95 Nm).

The drive is only on the front wheels, and in addition to the 5-speed manual, an automated manual transmission will also be offered.

Finally, the color palette has been expanded with golden bronze and matte titanium black options, and three two-tone combinations are also offered.
