2021 has been a blast for the Indian Automotive Industry as we saw the launch of some amazing vehicles. The SUV department is on a roll and currently, the 7-seater department is gaining control. Yes, the latest entrant is the 2021 Hyundai Alcazar that was supposed to be launched in April then due to the pandemic it shifted to May and now to the third week of June.
The new Alcazar shares its underpinnings with the Creta and will be offered as a 6 and 7-seater option in the Indian market. Once launched, the Alcazar will take on the likes of Tata Safari, MG Hector Plus and Mahindra XUV500.
The upcoming Alazar offers the longest wheelbase of 2761 mm and the largest boot space of 181 litres. Design-wise, the front profile resembles the Creta except for the chrome studded grille design that looks unique. The side profile comes with 18-inch alloy wheels and the stretched up profile.
