Hyundai is hard at work revamping its popular three-row SUV, the Hyundai Alcazar. Fresh spy photos reveal a camouflaged test vehicle undergoing trials on international roads, giving us tantalizing clues about what to expect.
Exterior Refresh: Sleek and Modern
The Alcazar facelift is poised to sport a more sophisticated look. A redesigned front grille, accented with chrome, complements a revised split headlamp setup. New LED daytime running lights (DRLs) add a touch of modern flair. Expect to see fresh alloy wheel designs and subtle changes to the bumpers for a cohesive aesthetic. Interestingly, a radar unit tucked into the front bumper suggests that Hyundai will be incorporating advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) in the new model.
Interior Refinement: Tech and Comfort
Inside, the 2024 Hyundai Alcazar is expected to borrow cues from its sibling, the recently launched Creta facelift. That means we can anticipate dual 10.25-inch screens for the infotainment and instrument cluster, along with a 360-degree camera system. Other potential upgrades include ventilated front seats, a blind-spot monitor, an electrically adjustable driver’s seat, and an electronic parking brake – features that enhance both comfort and convenience.
Under the Hood: Proven Powertrains
While the Alcazar’s appearance and interior are getting a makeover, the engine options are likely to remain familiar. The current model offers a 1.5-liter turbocharged petrol engine and a 1.5-liter diesel engine. These are paired with either a six-speed manual transmission, a six-speed automatic transmission, or a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT).
The Road Ahead
With its refreshed design and potential for new technology, the Hyundai Alcazar facelift promises to be an even more compelling option in the competitive three-row SUV segment. We eagerly await its official debut in the coming months.
