The Alcazar is the seven-seater version of the Hyundai Creta. The SUV comes with a longer wheelbase and a longer rear overhang, allowing it to accommodate a third-row of seats. The Alcazar was initially planned to go on sale in April. However, the launch had to be delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequently imposed lockdowns in the country.

The Hyundai Alcazar is powered by a 2.0-litre petrol engine producing 157 BHP and 192 Nm. There is also a 1.5-litre diesel engine on offer, churning out 113 BHP and 250 Nm. Both engines come mated to either a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission.

Re: New car launches in India in May 2021

Really looking forward to the Octavia. Hope they price it well.

The new GLA also looks really good but given the expected price, this will be a great pick in the pre-owned market 2-3 years down the line!
