The all-new Hyundai micro-SUV, codenamed AX1, has been teased ahead of its global debut. The teaser shows the SUV's headlamp and tail-lamp designs, but it is unclear whether Hyundai will reveal the final product or a near-production concept.

 

Images of the Hyundai AX1 teaser

They begin with two teaser images that show the headlamps and taillights of the micro-SUV. The AX1 will follow Hyundai's SUV design language, as evidenced by previous images of the test mule, with split headlamps upfront. The headlamp teaser image shows a circular projector unit set within the bumper. The unit has an LED DRL ring, and the upper portion of the image also provides illumination.

The unit has an LED DRL ring, and the upper portion of the image shows the upper light cluster, which most likely houses the turn indicators.

The tail-lamp image shows a unit with intricate triangular patterning – most likely LED modules. The same can be seen in some spy images of the car's rear that have circulated the internet. Spy photos show that the AX1 will have split light clusters at the rear, with secondary units in the bumper housing the reverse light and indicators.

Hyundai AX1: What We Know So Far Hyundai confirmed the development of a micro-SUV in 2018, with spy shots of test mules circulating on various websites by 2020. The test mules indicate that the AX1 will have the upright proportions of an SUV, with the SUV measuring around 3.7-3.8m, making it smaller than the Hyundai Venue.

While more information is awaited, the AX1 is expected to be built on Hyundai's K1 platform, which also serves as the foundation for the Grand i10 Nios in India. The compact SUV will most likely use Santro's 1.2-litre petrol engine, though lower models may use Santro's 1.1-litre unit to save money.

Hyundai AX1: India launch and competitors

The AX1 is expected to enter series production first in Korea, with trial production already underway. The model will have its world premiere in the coming months and will be available for purchase in Korea by September of this year. The AX1 is expected to arrive in India sometime in the future as a competitor to the upcoming Tata HBX compact SUV, as well as models such as the Mahindra KUV100 and Maruti Ignis.

You'd be mistaken if you thought Alcazar was just a longer version of Creta. Hyundai is aggressively entering the 7-seater market. The Alcazar is a three-row version of the second-generation Creta, which means it will share many of the same components, platform, and powertrains as the five-seat SUV. Despite the fact that both SUVs appear to be very similar on the outside and inside.

The Hyundai Alcazar, on the other hand, will have a range of unique features, and the carmaker has made minor tweaks to distinguish it from its mainstream 5-seater sibling.

Interior

The interior of the Alcazar would be distinct from that of the Creta. Captain seats will be available in the middle row of the Alcazar SUV in 6- and 7-seater configurations. A bench seat would be installed in the middle row of the 7-seater edition. In the middle row, there are two captain chairs, each with its own dedicated center console. It appears to be anchored to the floor and may have cup holders.

According to reports, it will also include wireless charging systems for captain seat passengers. Since the interior design is the same as the Creta. The Creta differs from the Creta in terms of upholstery and chain form. A dual-tone interior with a black and dark brown cabin theme will be available only on the top-end models. The Hyundai Alcazar will come with all the bells and whistles, including a 360-degree view, which is an improvement over the Hyundai Creta. The Hyundai Creta only comes with a reverse parking camera as standard equipment.

Exterior

From the front, the basic design is similar to the Creta. It does, however, get a new cascading grille from Hyundai. There are several individual chrome pieces inside the grille. On the edges, it has a chrome surround that suits Creta's headlamps. The Alcazar's front fascia appears to be higher-quality than the Creta's. The rear tail lamp design differs from that of the Creta. The tail lamps on the Creta have a C-shaped LED running light, while the Alcazar's are much larger and have a different running light arrangement. The LED strip is mounted in the lower surround of the taillights. At the back, we have a brand new tailgate that is more vertical.

The glass on the Creta was raked, while the glass on the Creta was steeply angled. A chrome slat connects the LED taillights. The word "Alcazar" is spelled out on the same chrome slat, and rear fog lamps are located in the lower half of the bumper.

Engine

The Hyundai Alcazar will use the same 1.5-liter diesel engine that powers the Hyundai Creta. A 2.0-litre petrol engine with 159 PS and 192 Nm of power and torque will also be available. The Hyundai Tucson makes use of the same power plant. The diesel engine is the same 1.5-litre, four-cylinder turbocharged unit that powers the Creta, with 115hp and 250Nm of torque. A 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission is available for both engines.
