Design & Looks
The mystery SUV rolled out in a camouflage wrap, but sharp headlights, a bold grille and a muscular rear hatch gave it away. The silhouette suggests a compact crossover, roughly the size of the Hyundai Venue, yet with a more aggressive stance.
- Front: Large hexagonal grille, LED DRLs, and a slightly higher bumper.
- Side: Flared wheel arches, roof rails, and a roof‑line that tapers toward the rear.
- Back: Wide tailgate, dual exhaust tips, and a subtle spoiler.
Inside, we expect a modern dash with a touchscreen infotainment system, dual‑zone climate control, and fabric seats – all typical for Hyundai’s value‑oriented models.
Performance & Mileage
While Hyundai has not confirmed the powertrain, leaks point to a 1.2‑litre petrol engine paired with a 5‑speed manual or CVT. The focus appears to be fuel efficiency rather than outright power.
| Engine | 1.2 L Kappa petrol |
|---|---|
| Mileage | ~18 km/l (manual) / ~17 km/l (CVT) |
| Price | ≈ ₹10 lakh (ex‑showroom) |
| Top Features | LED DRLs, Touchscreen (7‑inch), Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, Dual‑zone AC, Rear parking sensors |
These figures put the SUV in the same ballpark as the Tata Nexon and Kia Sonet’s entry models, but with Hyundai’s reputation for reliability.
Price & Rivals
At an expected price tag of around ₹10 lakh, the new Hyundai SUV aims straight at the budget‑SUV market. Competitors include:
- Tata Nexon (₹7.5‑9.5 lakh)
- Kia Sonet (₹7 lakh‑10 lakh)
- Maruti Suzuki Brezza (₹7.5‑9 lakh)
Hyundai’s edge could be its after‑sales network and a slightly more premium interior feel. If the pricing stays close to ₹10 lakh, the SUV will likely attract first‑time buyers and small families looking for a safe, city‑friendly vehicle.
