6. Driving & Comfort
Driving & Comfort Assessment
City Driving
Manual gearbox requires more effort in heavy traffic, but offers good control. Turning radius of 5.2m is reasonable for urban maneuvers. Good ground clearance for everyday Indian road conditions.
Highway Performance
At 82 bhp, the engine feels strained during high-speed overtakes on highways.
Ride & Comfort
Torsion beam rear suspension handles most road imperfections adequately. Road and engine noise are noticeable, typical for this segment. 350L boot space is adequate for weekend trips.

Recent Owner Reviews
20 reviews"My Opinion About Exter: If you re in the market for a stylish and feature-packed small SUV thats perfect for city commutes and the occasional highway trip, the Hyundai Exter is a great choice. It offers excellent value for money, plenty of modern features, and a smooth, comfortable drive. However, if you prefer sharper handling, need enough space at the back for three adults, or want a model with a confirmed crash-test rating, you might want to explore other options. Overall, the Exter ticks most boxes for first-time buyers and small families it?s practical, well-equipped, and looks great on the road."
"Exter A Home Car: Hyundai exter is a great city performance car that's make your ride easy and memorable without make your ride uncomfortable it's maintenance and performance is too good and forgot the mileage after riding it the best part of this car is the safety rating that's make you and your family safe on road."
"Good Exter: For this rate comparing other cars exter is highly recommended Boot Space & Length is Good for Luggage also huge cabin For this price one of the branded car. My family and friends enjoying while going to vacation trips. Off road hill station also exter performing well Good mileage also maintenance is very low. Thank you"
"Exter 2023-2026: The turbo petrol engine has reported issues with carbon buildup. Several owners on forums have faced this at 30,000 km."
"Hyundai Exter: Overall the car is good with extraordinary features and comfort but the maintenance cost is what which is a little thing to be concerned with but the overall features like performance luxury safety are good and for a SUV in this price range is a very good choice for a family of five overall a good car"
"Hyundai Exter Better Than The Best: Definately it's not a beast but surely a better Micro SUV Car. Enough power, Great mileage (@ 75 to 90 kmph= 20-23 kmpl & before this 17 kmpl around), Excellent silent cabin feel ( super silent 1200 cc 4 cyl), comfortable rides (Even better in long rides too & I did 900 km from delhi to varanasi 5 to 6 times with full load but maintain upto 80 to 100 kmph is best in every sense). Cons:- 1. No front parking sensors but it's mandatory 2. Only 2 parking sensors but atleast 4 needed 3. No wireless Apple/ Android car connectivity 4. Definately it's not a suv though resembles but it's far better than premium hatchback, sedans & even better than any base variant of sub compact SUVs."
"Hyundai Exter Rock's..Happy Owner, Dream Ride!!!: I purchased a Hyundai Exter Manual SX Petrol last year in 2024?it's my first car! 🚗 Very good value at this price point with all needed features included. Especially the hill hold, which helps a lot with my home parking, and the attractive design with H-shaped DRLs front and back gains attention on the road. Steering feedback is good and accurate, with a butter-smooth clutch compared to Maruti cars I've driven. Suspension is soft, great for city drives and highways, easily overcoming potholes even on long drives with 5 people and a fully loaded boot no suspension hitting issues at all (trust me, ignore the YouTubers). Mileage is solid: 13-14 kmpl in the city and a surprising 21 kmpl on highways at a constant 80-90 kmph using cruise control! You should try a test drive?this car delivers! Overall, I'm a happy customer with Hyundai's product after using it for a year."
"Size & Features: The car is perfect for city rides and specially for cities when you will drive, it seems little underpowered and it cannot overtake at highspeeds , it doesn't feel like rolling even at high speeds so good job from Hyundai. the car looks decent but the mileage is very low even in cities and highway."
"I Will Recommend This Car. It Is Good Car In Suv Segment: Good boot space, leg space. Engine is smooth, lot of tech features, comfortable ride. It is good car in suv segment. It has good road clearence, Sunroof is also there which make it premium. I will recommend this car. It is good car in suv segment. Hyundai service is good and they are always there to make your riding experience better."
"The Hyundai Exter has a bold and modern exterior design that clearly targets young urban buyers. The1SUV-inspired stance, along with the tall bonnet and squared-off proportions, gives it a strong road1presence. The front grille looks aggressive and is nicely complemented by the H-shaped LED DRLs, which add a1unique identity to the car. The black cladding around the wheel arches and bumpers enhances the rugged look,1while the alloy wheels add a sporty touch. From the side, the Exter looks compact yet well-balanced, making it1suitable for city driving without compromising on style. Overall, the exterior design feels fresh, practical,1and appealing for those looking for a compact SUV with character."
"This car is very budget friendly and a compact suv this is also a family car with a large boot space and it1comes with 5 air bags in it."
"Super Cars: Overall performance is good some features like connecting backlight must be added mileage is upto th he mark it is greater car produced by car for middle class family all necessary features as well as luxury features like sunroof and cruise offered with this price range with GST 2.0 it is cheaper now"
"After 5k Drive: Good but not what we expect from hyundai as I drove venue previously which was excellent specially turbo version. moreover the built quality is questionable as dents appeared on the bonnet after mild hail stone this requires better steel. breaking is good lights are ok but second row is too compact suspension soft"
"Exter 2023-2026: Pricing has gone up significantly. Hyundai used to offer great value, but now top variants cost as much as cars from a segment above."
"Awesome Car. Really Good Value: Awesome car. Really good value for money. A more powerful engine would be great but its engine is also super refined. The gear shifts are smooth as butter. I wish that wireless Android auto/Apple carplay was standard and 4 parking sensors, atleast for the top models. Personally, I feel the suspension could have been slightly stiffer. And as usual the Hyundai after Sale service is Top notch and professional. Honestly the Hyundai Exter is the best car under 11 lacs."
"Hyundai Exter Ownership Review.: I have Hyundai exter sx amt(knight edition). This car is very good in every aspect. The features are very good and practical. This car is full of space, whether it's boot or rear seats, this car has a lot of space. The sunroof is also very good and practical to use. The speakers and infotainment system is very good. Also, it supports cruise control which provides a very good ride quality on highways. The mileage is around 14km/l in cities and around 22km/l on highways and empty roads."
"more comfort and smooth drive balanced large space feels like suv, new model mileage good"
"Nice Car With Safety .: Worth it car. All the features are very much appreciated within a reasonble price. I wish all of you to buy this car for better experiences. As well as the infotainment system used in the car is very much comfortable for all the people from child to older people. Can Be a good choice for everyone who want to buy a new car under reasonable price ."
"Best Car In This Segment: I had very good experience while driving this car. I am planning to buy this car in the future as i have ride my freind car Highway riding was excellent though I faced soke lag while overtaking as it was in automatic mode, but when I shifted to manual it was smooth. So, overall I recommend this car for people who wants SUV feel in small budget."
"Good Experience Overall: Good experience driving it as it is one of the safest and smoothest car i have done a ride on over the period of years in this budget ! Really recommend this vehicle for the first time owners if you want your first car it must be an Hyundai Exter! With no other doubt about it Go and enjoy yourself with Hyundai !"
