Hyundai Alcazar: What Do These Variants Get? 

One of the gripes we had with the Alcazar was that the panoramic sunroof was limited to the turbo-petrol variants. Now, Hyundai has fixed that with the Corporate variant, which finally gets this much-loved feature with the diesel engine. 

Other feature highlights in both the Corporate and Prestige DCT include a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto (using an adaptor), dual-zone climate control, wireless phone charger, ambient lighting and keyless entry with push button start. It also comes with LED headlights, dynamic turn indicators and 17-inch dual-tone alloy wheels. 

Passenger safety is taken care of by six airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors and electronic stability control.
