1.2 Elite AMT R334 900
Hyundai Automotive South Africa has boosted its local model line-up with the stylish and attractive EXTER, an all-new compact crossover SUV that is set to become a top seller in the entry vehicle segment in the local car market.
1.2 Executive AMT R314 900
The all-new Exter comes well equipped with a full arsenal of features and very attractive design elements – attributes that are needed as a contender in the fiercely competitive, and largest, crossover and SUV market segment that accounts for almost 38% of overall sales to date this year.
Three equipment levels and five variants are available:
The EXTER 1.2 Premium (manual transmission) and EXTER 1.2 Premium AMT (automated manual transmission);
The EXTER 1.2 Executive (manual) and EXTER 1.2 Executive AMT; and
The flagship EXTER 1.2 Elite AMT.
"The introduction of the Hyundai EXTER to the South African market is one of the most exciting events on our calendar for a quite a while. The EXTER’s beautiful, harmonious design lines and excellent proportions immediately draw attention, but it is not only a good looker – it offers a very well-equipped and spacious interior with comfortable room for front and rear occupants,” says Stanley Anderson, sales, operations and commercial director at Hyundai Automotive South Africa.
"The EXTER not only meet the needs of modern, young entry-level buyers, but also sets new standards for in the segment for compact crossovers in the market. We are confident that the Hyundai EXTER with its long list of standard convenience and safety features will exceed the expectations of our customers," says Anderson.
The all-new Hyundai EXTER features a progressive and unique crossover SUV design showcasing Hyundai’s identity of “Sensuous Sportiness”, characterized by a modern front, dynamic side and sporty rear design. The DNA of Hyundai’s crossover SUV line-up is also evident from the front grille design and the positioning of the daytime running lights (DRLs), with its LEDs in a signature H-shape, above the halogen headlights. The H-signature design is repeated in the rear lights of the EXTER.
Prominent silver skid plates at the front and rear adds to the bold and sporty design, and the dynamic side-view is enhanced by 15-inch diamond cut alloy wheels (for the Executive and Elite versions). The Premium version also boasts attractive covers with a dynamic design for the 15-inch steel wheels.
The dynamism of the EXTER is evident from its bold and muscular wheel arch cladding that lends a fresh appeal to the car’s profile. With distinctively carved character lines and parametric garnish on the C-pillar, Hyundai’s EXTER looks edgy and attractive from every angle.
The EXTER has been designed to present a modern take on the Hyundai SUV life that is epitomized by sporty characteristics. Some modern yet elegant design features of the Hyundai EXTER include:
Sporty bridge-type roof rails with a 70 kg load capacity (for Executive and Elite variants);
Dynamic rear spoiler;
Sharkfin antenna;
LED turn indicators on outside mirrors (for Premium AMT and all Executive and Elite variants); and
The signature-H LED tail lamps.
The all-new EXTER is 3,815 m long, 1,710 m wide, and the variants with roof rails stand 1,631 m tall versus 1,585 m for the Premium without rails. Its wheelbase stretches over 2,45 m.
Ground clearance is 185 mm, which, in combination with the generous amount of rubber on the 15-inch wheels, gives the EXTER the ability to tackle excursions on gravel roads without worries.
Six exterior colour options are available across the range: Atlas White, Cosmic Blue, Tomboy Khaki, Fiery Red, Titan Grey and Starry Night. Customers can also choose from three two-tone options for the Executive and Elite versions: Cosmic Blue with a black roof; Tomboy Khaki with a black roof, or Atlas White also paired with a black roof.
Spacious and comfortable interior
The Hyundai EXTER offers its customers an expansive cabin with superior knee room and legroom, a relaxed seating position, and ample head and shoulder room to make even a long journey comfortable.
The interiors feature a sporty 3D pattern finish dashboard, complemented by a leather-wrapped steering wheel and gear knob (for Executive and Elite variants), and a sporty black finish with colour inserts.
Seat cover schemes range from obsidian black with a grey trim to black with a blue trim, and black with a sage trim – all linked in different combinations with exterior colours. The Premium and Executive variants come with cloth seats, while the Elite’s seats are covered with a mixture of cloth and artificial leather material.

A strong body structure forged with expansive application of advanced and high strength steel creates a safe environment for the occupants.
