6. Driving & Comfort

Driving & Comfort Assessment

Performance Score7.5/10
Comfort Score6.3/10

City Driving

The automatic transmission makes stop-and-go traffic easy to manage. Turning radius of 5.2m is reasonable for urban maneuvers. Good ground clearance for everyday Indian road conditions.

Highway Performance

The 82 bhp engine is sufficient for highway cruising but needs planning for quick overtakes. Lighter weight means crosswinds can be felt at higher speeds.

Ride & Comfort

Torsion beam rear suspension handles most road imperfections adequately. Road and engine noise are noticeable, typical for this segment. 391L boot space is adequate for weekend trips.

The design is very modern and eye-catching, especially the front look and DRLs, which give it a premium feel. The interior is comfortable with good space, making it suitable for both daily city drives and occasional long trips. The seats are supportive, and the overall cabin quality feels solid for this segment. In terms of performance, the car is smooth and easy to drive, especially in city traffic. The mileage is also decent, which makes it a practical choice. What I really liked is the number of features offered at this price point — it truly feels like value for money.

"Beyond Compare... Hyundai U Made It. What Else: I just recently drove my exter to badrinath temple, adi badri, Almora Uttarakhand and guys it was more than excellent comfort. The AC performance was just too good. The only thing that annoyed me was the up hill drive. May be lack of turbo engine. Thank you Hyundai. But then what more in this price."

"Best Feature Loaded Car Under 9 Lakh: I have bought exter sx model in march 2026 & have been driving it since, its a best micro suv or you can call it a hybrid hatchbag. Its a best car under 9 lakh rupees & beat for city driving. its small size makes it more comfortable to drive in traffic. It looks small from outside but believe me. its as big as swift from inside, even more more loaded features & reliability."
