Only a few weeks ago, Hyundai introduced the Exter micro SUV in India and is packed with features right from the base variant. It competes squarely against Tata Punch and carries a starting price of Rs. 5.99 lakh (ex-showroom).
The Hyundai Exter derives power from the tried and tested 1.2L NA three-cylinder petrol engine, paired with a five-speed MT or a five-speed AMT. It is also available in CNG specification. The five-seater is expected to make a strong impact on the sales table in the coming months.
