The Hyundai Alcazar is all set to be launched in India soon, and it is probably one of the highly anticipated cars to go on sale in India this year. Unlike its rivals Tata Safari and the MG Hector Plus, the new Alcazar comes with several features and updates that make it more than just a three-row version of the Creta. In fact, based on the details revealed by the company the SUV comes with over 10 first- or best-in-class features, and we believe those will also dictate the price of the new Hyundai Alcazar.

Now, Hyundai is known for launching its products at an attractive introductory price, and the same is expected to be the case with the Alcazar. The Creta right now is priced between Rs. 10 lakh to Rs. 17.66 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) and the company offers about 20 different variants, based on engine, transmission choices, and special edition models. The Alcazar however is likely to come in only 3 major trims - Prestige, Platinum, and Signature, and 14 different variants based on engine, transmission and seating options. So, we expect a slightly shorter price bracket, which is likely to start at around Rs. 14 lakh and go up to Rs. 20 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
