Pros & Cons

Advantages
    • The introductory price for the base Exter EX is really impressive and the prices of the higher variants are sensible too. The base model of the Exter offers 6 airbags as standard, which is not only a segment-first but also a first in any car below the Rs. 10 lakh price bracket.

    • While the base variant of the Exter comes with 6 airbags as standard, its EX (O) and S(O) variants also offer other safety features, like electronic stability control (ESC) and hill start assist, for a marginal increment in price.

    • The Exter offers the choice of a 1.2L normal petrol engine that can be equipped with either a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed automated manual transmission. Furthermore, the Exter also offers the option of a factory-fitted CNG powertrain, which comes with a 5-speed manual transmission as standard.

    • The Hyundai Exter comes loaded with a long list of features, including automatic climate control, sunroof, digital instrument cluster, rear AC vents, cruise control and 3-point seatbelts for all passengers. It also offers a few segment-first features like paddle shifters, dual-camera dashcam and multi-language support.

    • The Exter offers a ground clearance of 185mm, which is good by segment standards. Furthermore, it also offers 391L of boot space, second only to the Renault Kiger’s 405L boot space.

    • The Exter offers a claimed fuel efficiency of 19.4kmpl and 19.2kmpl with the petrol manual and petrol AMT, respectively. The CNG powertrain offers a claimed fuel efficiency of 27.1kmpkg. The fuel efficiency of all the Exter’s powertrains is good by segment standards.

    Disadvantages
      • While the Exter comes packed with a lot of features, it misses a few key ones like wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, split-folding rear seats, front adjustable headrests, and front and rear armrests.

      • Since the Exter CNG packs a 60L water-equivalent cylinder in its boot, its luggage carrying capacity is compromised over the petrol powertrain option. The upcoming Tata Punch CNG will offer a twin-cylinder layout, enabling you to store larger pieces of luggage in the boot.

      • Since a few variants of the Exter overlap the Hyundai Venue in terms of ex-showrrom price, a few buyers may tilt towards the larger Hyundai Venue, which also makes use of the same 1.2L normal petrol engine.

      rs

      Expert Verdict

      Price & Value: Exter is more affordable to buy.

      Performance & Mileage: Defender delivers better performance with more power and torque, whereas Exter focuses on efficiency and lower running costs.

      Space & Comfort: Defender is the longest and widest of the group, which should translate to better cabin space, while Defender offers the highest ground clearance—useful for poor roads and speed breakers. Boot space is largest in Exter, making it more practical for luggage.

      Features & Safety: Feature-wise, Exter offers the richest equipment list. Defender misses out on some basic safety, functional or convenience features that rivals provide.

      Which one should you buy? Choose the Land Rover Defender (110) X-Dynamic HSE if your priorities are stronger performance, more cabin space and higher ground clearance. Consider the Hyundai Exter HX8 if you value a lower on-road price, better fuel efficiency and more boot space. Overall, the Hyundai Exter HX8 offers the better balance for buyers who prioritise a lower on-road price and better fuel efficiency.
