Design
The SUV by Hyundai sees some major transformation in terms of design and looks. The C-segment SUV follows Hyundai’s new Sensuous Sportiness design philosophy. Many of the design aspects are taken from its elder sibling Tucson. Talking about the front, the biggest highlight of the car gets a newly redesigned grille with jewel themed and integrated LED DRLs which looks like a part of the design.Â
The vertically oriented dual-beam headlamps sit over the newly designed front bumper and silver skid plate. Now, much has changed in the side profile but we can see newly designed dual-tone alloy wheels. The silver accent from the front extends till side skirts and rear bumper. The rear looks quite similar to the previous gen as well, only the middle LED strip has been removed in the facelift. We can spot a new spoiler and now the stop lamp strip is placed below it.
Features
The previous-gen car was already feature packed with some best in class equipment to offer. Hyundai saw the growing competition in the Mini SUV segment and added ADAS (Advanced Driver Assist System) to enhance the safety of the car and take it to another level. Now the digital instrument cluster is a 10.25-inch panel with BlueLink connected car technology.
 Adding to this is an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Other features include an air purifier, ventilated front seats, automatic climate control, a Bose stereo system, a panoramic sunroof and more.
