Replacing the H1, the streamlined bus comes in nine or 11-seat options
New Hyundai Staria shakes up the people-carrier segment with its radical styling. Picture: PAPI MABELELuxury, Elite and ExecutiveThe nine-seater consists of rows in a 3,2,2,2 configuration starting from the back to front passengers while the 11-seater fills up the apertures in the second and third rows with smaller middle seats.
With its many guises, and lots of luxury kit possible — including cup holders, USB ports, tilting seats, an eight-inch touchscreen display, wide-angle camera rear park with warning sensors front and back, a bird’s-eye view of the car for Luxury models, wireless Bluetooth, Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, a Bose sound system with 12 speakers, automatic air conditioner with rear roof air vents, cruise control, plus much more — it appeals to families and the chauffeur-driven industry alike.
Safety on the move is looked after by six airbags and three-point seat belts and headrests on all seats. Rear cross-traffic alert, forward collision-avoidance assist and blind-spot collision-avoidance assist are also available, including safe exit assist which prevents the door from opening in a situation where a passenger attempts to open the power sliding door while a rear-side vehicle is passing by.
The Hyundai Staria cabin can be filled with nine or eleven seats while a more conventional five seater and panel van are on their way too. Picture: SUPPLIED
