Highlights
- Hyundai Exter Hy-CNG Duo launched in India, with prices ranging from Rs 8.50 lakh to Rs 9.38 lakh (ex-showroom).
- Exter Hy-CNG Duo has a certified fuel efficiency figure of 27.1 km per kg of CNG.
- Peak power drops by almost 14 bhp compared to petrol version; available with 5-speed manual only.
Expanding the range of powertrain choices for its most affordable SUV in the country, Hyundai has launched the Exter Hy-CNG Duo in India. Taking a leaf out of Tata Motors’ playbook, Hyundai, as the name suggests, has adopted a dual CNG cylinder layout for the Exter, and will offer the Hy-CNG Duo option on three variants – S (priced at Rs 8.50 lakh), SX (priced at Rs 9.23 lakh) and SX Knight (priced at Rs 9.38 lakh). This means the Exter Hy-CNG commands a premium of exactly Rs 1 lakh over the equivalent petrol-only variants. Interestingly, Hyundai is also offering a single CNG cylinder option with the Exter as well, with the single-cylinder Exter S priced at Rs 8.43 lakh and Exter SX priced at Rs 9.16 lakh (all prices, ex-showroom).
