Verdict
Hyundai has done a tremendous job making the trim levels of the Alcazar extremely easy to understand, unlike their other car models, which have much more differentiation. In the Alcazar, every variant includes all the basic features, and the price difference primarily lies between the manual and automatic gearboxes. As mentioned above, there are no major differences between the various trim levels, and everything feels quite similar. I hope this explanation, along with the pricing information, provides clarity.
