Hyundai's affordable micro-SUV with a panoramic sunroof under ₹10 lakh
The Hyundai Exter brought something genuinely new to the entry-level SUV segment — a panoramic sunroof at a price point where most cars don't even offer a standard sunroof. Combined with connected car features, a fresh design and Hyundai's brand trust, it quickly became a strong seller.
Available in petrol and CNG variants with manual and AMT automatic options, the Exter covers a wide range of buyer preferences. Its compact dimensions make it easy to drive in cities while the elevated seating position and good ground clearance handle Indian roads confidently.
For buyers cross-shopping with the Tata Punch or Maruti S-Presso, the Exter offers a noticeably more feature-rich package including the star attraction — that panoramic sunroof — at a competitive price.
Tap any variant to see exactly what's included and what's missing. Hyundai renamed Exter's trims to an HX2–HX10 system with the 2026 facelift — figures below reflect this current structure.
| Car | Price | Key Difference |
|---|---|---|
| Tata Punch | ₹6–10L | 5-Star safety, more rugged, no panoramic sunroof |
| Maruti S-Presso | ₹3.5–6L | Much cheaper, no sunroof, basic features |
| Renault Kiger | ₹6–11L | Turbo engine option, larger, more features |
