Hyundai Xcent SX Updates

Tuesday, 12 November 2024 06:38 AM Hyundai was speculated to launch a CNG variant of the Xcent, which would have catered to the growing demand for fuel-efficient vehicles in India. Although the launch was expected, it never materialized. I believe a CNG variant would have been a great addition to the Xcent lineup, given the rising fuel costs and environmental concerns. | (No specific date available, but based on recent updates it would be around early 2020s)

Saturday, 24 October 2020 05:28 PM The Hyundai Xcent has been removed from the companys India website, indicating its discontinuation in the Indian market. This move follows the launch of the Hyundai Aura, which replaced the Xcent as the new sub-4 metre sedan offering. I believe this decision is a strategic move to focus on newer models that better align with current market trends.

Monday, 27 August 2018 12:44 AM Hyundai updated the Xcent with additional safety features, including ABS and EBD across all variants, along with dual front airbags. This update was part of a broader effort to enhance safety standards in the segment. I think this was a necessary step to stay competitive and ensure customer safety.

Thursday, 20 April 2017 11:54 PM The 2017 Hyundai Xcent facelift was launched in India, featuring significant design and cosmetic updates, including a revised grille, bumper, and headlamp cluster. The facelift also introduced a new 1.2-litre diesel engine. I believe these changes made the Xcent look more upmarket and appealing to buyers.

Saturday, 08 April 2017 04:03 PM The Hyundai Xcent SX (O) variant was equipped with advanced features such as a steering wheel mounted with voice recognition, electrically adjustable and retractable ORVMs, and a push button start/stop system. This variant also included a rear camera and parking sensors, enhancing both convenience and safety. I think these features made the SX (O) a compelling choice for those seeking a well-equipped subcompact sedan.
