New offering from Hyundai in the shape of Exter
Hyundai’s new offering in the shape of the Exter is aimed at attracting buyers. This car is very special for those who want to buy an ‘SUV’ without spending a lot of money, Exeter is priced between Rs 6 lakh to Rs 10 lakh, has an extensive feature list and comes in petrol, manual and automatic manual transmission options. Also available with engine. As petrol-CNG powertrain only with manual gearbox.
The features on the Exeter give it that ‘SUV’ nature
The features on the Exeter give it that ‘SUV’ nature – a flat bonnet, a high stance, muscular wheel arches and 185 mm of ground clearance. Silver skid plates with exposed fake rivets give it a butch look, as do its distinctive, exaggerated bulges and oversized square body cladding. However, these dwarf its dual-tone, 15-inch alloys, and there’s nothing to hide the sheer visual weight of its rear three-quarters thanks to the thick C-pillar and its upright stance. The H-pattern LED inserts in the daytime running lamps and smart detailing like the multi-dimensional gloss black paneling on the front grille, C-pillar and boot add to the design.
Exeter’s interior looks familiar
The interiors of the Exeter look familiar. Because most of the bits are shared with the Nios, that’s not a bad thing. Fit and finish are top-notch though the hard plastics on the inside, the high-quality leather-wrapped steering and beautifully finished gear lever, as well as the digital instrument cluster and sunroof, are attractive enough, but the single-tone black color scheme of the Nios Doesn’t look kind of airy or welcoming.
Exeter a high-riding vehicle with 185 mm of ground clearance
The Xtor is a high-riding vehicle with 185 mm of ground clearance, and the suspension has also been reworked as compared to the Grand i10 Nios, the car it is based on. It takes road shocks very well and absorbs bumps very well but when you hit big potholes you will feel a rumble inside. The good news is that the Exeter drives much calmer than its hatchback counterpart, and feels just as developed behind the wheel as the Venue. Commendably, the body movements are well in check, and thanks to its 2,450mm wheelbase, the Exeter feels like a stable NH cruiser, and while its steering is light it’s weighted to give the driver confidence at speed is satisfactory. The car is not a sporty handler but its handling manners feel neutral and predictable with few roll-around corners.
