The Hyundai Alcazar is a compact crossover SUV with three-row seating produced by the South Korean manufacturer Hyundai in India. Introduced in April 2021, it is a long-wheelbase version of the subcompact Creta, whilst having additional third-row seating, styling changes, and a different powertrain option.[7] [8]
Overview
[edit ]The Alcazar was first unveiled in April 2021,[9] and was released to the market in June 2021.[10] It is based on the Creta, with a 150 mm (5.9 in) longer wheelbase at 2,760 mm (108.7 in), and a longer overall body by 200 mm (7.9 in).[11] The longer body allows for a three-row seating, with 7-seater and 6-seater (with captain seats) options being offered.[12] The vehicle is also introduced with a reworked front styling, and a larger 18-inch wheels.

For the 2023 model year, Hyundai gave the Alcazar a minor facelift for the Indian market which included minor styling changes, a standard auto start-stop system and a new 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine to replace the existing 2.0-liter petrol engine.
