Hyundai Alcazar

Positives:

• It has a panoramic sunroof, three rows in six- and seven-seat layouts, and a digital key with NFC technology and key sharing for up to three users.

• At the rear, there are thigh cushion extensions, wing-type headrest, and an adjustable front passenger seat from the rear.

• It is offered with ventilated seats for the front and second row, and driver and co-driver power seat with a memory function for the driver.

• The dashboard has integrated infotainment and instrument cluster screens, both measuring 10.25 inches, and the first and second rows have a wireless charger.

• It gets a dual-zone climate control with a touch control panel and a Bose music player with eight speakers, including a subwoofer.

• The front seats are comfortable while offering generous under-thigh and lateral support.

• Outward visibility from inside the Alcazar is excellent due to the slim A-pillars and low dashboard.

• The second-row seats are quite comfortable and there’s lots of shoulder and headroom on offer.

• The third-row seats have reclinable backrests and access to these seats is effortless.

Negatives:

• It lacks adequate legroom in the second row even when the seats are at the rear-most position.
• The twin-seat third row is not the most spacious we’ve experienced and is best for short journeys.

Positives:

• It also offers features like a surround-view monitor, blind spot view monitor, six airbags, hill start assist, ESP, all four disc brakes, hill descent control, TPMS and rain-sensing wipers.

Negatives:

• The Hyundai Alcazar has not yet been tested for safety ratings by the NCAP authorities.

• It is an aesthetically designed SUV with simple and clean styling lines throughout.

• It has fresh styling elements like split headlamps, connecting LED light bar, new grille, and a redesigned front bumper.

• The new Hyundai Alcazar will also have 18-inch dual-tone alloys, large skid plates, and reshaped roof-rails.

• The interior feels premium owing to the silver highlights and high-quality materials like the soft-touch padding.

• The rear is highlighted by the vertically positioned LED tail lamps, connecting LED light bar, and the restyled bumper.

• The cabin and the dashboard are now available with a new brown and blue theme.

• The dashboard now offers two attractive 10.25-inch screens for the infotainment and instrumentation.

• As with most Hyundai cars, the quality, fit, and finish are good and consistent.
