Hyundai Alcazar Facelift Exterior
These images have been shared by its_thecarman on Instagram. At the front, the main difference lies in the grille section. It looks relatively smaller than the one on the existing model, but the new chrome belt is seen on this model underneath the chrome-finished elements on the top, the split LED DRLs and headlamp cluster looks minorly tweaked and so do the bumper and skid plate at the bottom. Apart from that, the bonnet remains upright lending it an SUV-ish stance.

On the sides, the alloy wheels look similar to the existing model, but the side pillars finished in black feature minor modifications making it look modern and new. The roof rails also look functional. At the rear, the shark fin antenna, split-LED taillamps are connected by a chrome slab, the skid plate looks fresh and more rugged compared to the current-gen model completing the rear profile. All in all, the SUV features only minute tweaks to the exterior styling which is generally the case with all facelifts.
