6. Driving & Comfort

Driving & Comfort Assessment

Performance Score7.0/10
Comfort Score6.0/10

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.

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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"

"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."
