The Hyundai Exter’s exterior has already been revealed. Its engine specs and interior, along with its price will be unveiled on July 10. Bookings have already commenced.

It is spacious and stunning inside, dynamic on the outside, and loaded with all that you need to venture outside,” the cricketer exclaimed in the press release.
Mechanically, the Exter will be powered by the marque’s 1.2-liter petrol engine and will be paired to MT or an AMT variant. The Exter is based on the same platform that also underpins the Grand i10 NIOS and the Aura.
It will be available in five trim levels primarily - EX, S, SX, SX(O), and top-spec SX(O) Connect. It will primarily compete against the Tata Punch and Citroen C3. So, it remains to be seen the exact price range Hyundai plans to launch the Exter at.
