Hyundai Alcazar Facelift Spied Testing on Indian Roads

Expected launch by early-2024 To get exterior styling and interior feature updates Will rival new Citroen C3 Aircross

South Korean automaker Hyundai cars has started testing of the upcoming Alcazar facelift in India. The 7-seat SUV has been a popular model for the brand since its launch a couple of years ago. But with the entry of new rivals like the Citroen C3 Aircross, an update for the Alcazar with added features would be quite welcome. Now, latest spy shots give a sneak peek into what the Alcazar facelift may look like. We take a closer look.

Hyundai Alcazar Facelift: Spy Shots Emerge

While the test mule is clad in camouflage, the spy shot does reveal a few design elements. The facelifted Alcazar will get exterior changes like redesigned bumpers, updated front and rear bumpers, new LED DRLs and grille. The SUV is also expected to get tweaked headlights, brand-new alloy wheels, and a LED lightbar at the rear.

Moving inside, not much is known how the facelifted Hyundai Alcazar will look. However, it will likely get a raft of new features including ADAS-tech, 360-degree camera, and new upholstery. The SUV already comes pretty loaded with features like a 10.25-inch infotainment system, digital instrument cluster, wireless charging, BlueLink connected car tech, ventilated front seats, panoramic sunroof, TPMS, and more.

Hyundai Alcazar Facelift: Powertrain Details

Hyundai is expected to offer the Alcazar facelift with the current powertrain options with minimal changes. This includes a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine that makes 160 bhp with 253 Nm of peak torque. Transmission choices include a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed DCT automatic. There’s also a 1.5-litre turbodiesel which pumps out 115 bhp with 250 Nm of peak torque. It is paired with a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed torque converter.

Hyundai Alcazar Facelift: Launch and Rivals

The new Alcazar facelift is expected to be introduced sometime in early-2024, likely the first quarter. Upon launch, it will rival the likes of the Tata Safari, MG Hector Plus, and the Mahindra XUV 700.
