It boasts of a 12.3-inch HD touchscreen main display, another 12.3-inch driver display, wireless phone charging, Head-Up Display, sunroof and leather seats. On the outside as well, it looks different from any other Hyundai model courtesy its overall design language which encompasses LED headlamps with LED Daytime Running Lamps and LED tail lamps.
