The Hyundai Alcazar marked the entry of the South Korean carmaker into the 3-row SUV space in India. Essentially, a three-row version of the company's popular compact SUV, the Hyundai Creta, the Alcazar was launched with several best-in-segment features that made it a good value proposition. And it continues to be so. Right now, Hyundai, on average, sells about 3,000 units of the Alcazar every month. So, if you are planning to buy the Hyundai Alcazar right now, here are some key pros and cons you should know about the three-row SUV.

Pros
1. The Hyundai Alcazar is a handsome looking SUV, and with features like LED headlights, LED DRLs, 18-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, LED taillamps and side-steps give it proper SUV creds.
2. The Alcazar is loaded with features like a fully digital instrument cluster, ventilated seats, wireless charger for 1st and 2nd row (6-seater), power-adjustable front seats, captain seats for the second row, and air purifier with an AQI display.
3. Hyundai also offers a 10.25-inch infotainment system with a BlueLink connected car system that comes with OTA map updates. The SUV also gets a voice-enabled smart panoramic sunroof.
4. The Hyundai Alcazar is not only longer than the Creta, but it also gets a 150 mm longer wheelbase at 2760 mm.

Cons
1. While the Alcazar is bigger than the Creta, the cabin doesn't feel all that spacious. It feels very compact, and the black interiors make it look even more cramped.
2. The third row of the Alcazar is way too cramped for adults to sit comfortably. It's only good for kids, and that too, for short distances.
3. The Alcazar doesn't get Creta's 1.4-litre turbo petrol engine even as an option, and that's a big miss.
4. Hyundai is not offering enough variants with a 7-seater cabin layout. The top-end variant doesn't get it even as an option, so you will have to stick to the entry- or mid-spec trims for the 7-seater version.
5. The entry variants of the Hyundai Alcazar are a bit on the pricier side. Both the Tata Safari and the Mahindra XUV700 undercut it by a huge margin.
