As early as the beginning of this year, Hyundai officially released its new MPV model, Hyundai STARIA, which has a design like a future space car. But in this sci-fi car shell, it is a traditional fuel model, but also a super multi-functional model with a 2-11 seat layout, and some time ago more pictures of the new car were exposed.
Learn about new cars in one minute:
1. Provide STARIA ordinary version and STARIA Premium luxury version models
2, the use of minimalist style of the appearance of the design, the size of the window glass is huge
3. The interior retains the design of traditional MPV models, adding more sense of technology
4. Equipped with 2.2T diesel engine and 3.5L naturally aspirated V6 engine, matching with 8-speed automatic transmission.
5. The luxury version models provide 7, 9 and 11 seat models
The first reaction of the professor when he saw the real car map: Hyundai really built this car! Modern ones have always been very ahead of the curve in design, but for most people, the first reaction to seeing them is ugly, and the professor felt the same way at the beginning. But if you look at it 10 years from now, 20 years from now, maybe the cars of the future will look like this!
In fact, you think it is strange because it uses a large area of window glass, whether it is the front end or the side of the window, the area is very large, so you will feel that the whole car is like glass, but this design can bring a strong sense of openness to the car. Recall that the previous Toyota Privia and Citroen Picasso both used similar designs.
The front shape of the car has a large incline angle, and the LED light group that runs through the front face above is actually a daytime running light, and the headlight group is placed on both sides of the large area of the net below, and the oversized net looks like a blood basin mouth.
From the side of the car, the professor believes that the STARIA still has similarities with the Already listed Kustu, the body is very slender, but the STARIA is significantly taller. It's even a bit like a van, and it seems true that STARIA does have a van version.
In terms of interior, hyundai STARIA also adopts a pure MPV central control design, and there is a passage between its front seats. In terms of configuration, the new car will be equipped with a floating LCD digital instrument, a 10.25-inch floating central control screen, an electronic button shifting method and an atmosphere light, and the sense of luxury and technology is quite good.
The biggest highlight of the car is its variety of seat layouts and abundant storage space. The new car will be available in up to 11-seat layout options, with the regular version supporting 2-11 seats and the Premium Deluxe edition offering 7, 9, and 11-seat versions.
In terms of power, the new car will be equipped with a 2.2T diesel engine and a 3.5L naturally aspirated V6 engine, the former with a maximum power of 177 horsepower and a maximum torque of 440 N·m; the latter should be the same as the Paristi engine, with a maximum power of 272 horsepower. The professor speculated that the luxury version will be equipped with a 3.5L V6 engine, while the ordinary version with a 2.2T diesel engine will have better economy.
Hyundai and Kia brought two MPVS, Kustur and Kahua, respectively this year, and STARIA is positioned higher than the former two, belonging to high-end MPV models, and in terms of competitors, it is benchmarked toyota syna, Volkswagen Matway, and Mercedes-Benz Vito.
The new car was also unveiled at the Macau Motor Show earlier, and its price was 499,800 Hong Kong dollars (about 407,700 yuan), which does not seem to be cheap. If it is purely imported into the country, it is likely to be close to 500,000 yuan after adding taxes and fees, which is not a low price for Korean cars.
But its advantages are also really prominent, that is, the oversized size and the seat layout with 7-11 seats, if only the 7-seat model is introduced, then its spatial performance is absolutely crushing toyota Syna. If an 8-11 seat model is introduced, its functionality is more prominent than that of Mercedes-Benz Vito.
But for Hyundai, they certainly don't dare to rush to introduce a flagship model with such a high price, because the Paristi imported by Hyundai is not selling well.
Hyundai STARIA is truly an unprecedented MPV model that not only has a unique design, but also perfectly balances both commercial and domestic. However, this advanced design concept will also become a double-edged sword, and the most direct face is whether consumers buy it. However, the professor believes that if staria appears as a pure electric vehicle in a few years, perhaps the users of pure electric vehicles will like it very much!
