The SUV follows the automaker's Fluidic Sculpture 2.0 design language that gives it an athletic and bold appearance. The face comes with twin-projector LED headlights and LED DRLs with the imposing hexagonal grille in the middle. Big wheel arches with plastic cladding house 19-inch alloy wheels, with the sleek roof rails and door handles equipped with LED approach lamps completing the side profile. The rear looks stylish with elements such as a tailgate-mounted spoiler, wraparound LED taillights and bevel-cut twin chrome exhaust tips.
Hyundai has made the interior more premium with the use of leather on the instrument panel and addition of soft-touch materials to the interior touch points. The infotainment system is operated through the 8.0-inch touchscreen display that supports navigation and Siri "Eyes Free" integration.
