Capture the beauty and performance of the Hyundai Exter 1.2 in all its splendor

Character, class, and comfort the Hyundai Exter 1.2 has all this and so much more, making it a must-have if you are in the market for a brand-new set of wheels. 

Since its introduction to the South African market a few months back, this crossover vehicle has been successful in carrying on the legacy from its sibling, the Hyundai Venue. At a price ranging from as little as R269 900, it is arguably also one of the most inexpensive cross vehicles from the Korean motor group on our roads today. 

When it comes to the external appearance of the vehicle, it’s not difficult to understand why some would immediately pull out your wallet. 

With a unique design that features a touch of elegance with the fusion of a sporty design, the Exter 1.2 comes with a “glossy black radiator grille and signature H-LED headlights command attention on the ground, while its sunroof opens up a world of possibilities, with the freedom of endless horizons”. 

Complimenting its external appearance is an interior that equally lives up to the standard laid out by its manufacturers, which oozes comfort. 

The car comes equipped with a rear parking assist as well as cruise control. Meanwhile, it also features an infotainment screen that allows for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to ensure that you get to listen to some of your favourite tracks while exploring the beauty of our country. 

Here are some technical specs of the vehicle: 

1.2L 4 Cylinder Petrol
5-speed manual transmission
114 Nm @ 4 000 r / min torque
61 kW @6 000 r / min power
 
Performance: 

Max speed 165 km / h
Fuel economy 5.7l / 100 km
