Ronald Yuwono, Hyundai Australia Product Planning Assistant Manager

Hi, I’m Ronald Yuwono,

Product Planning Assistant Manager at Hyundai Motor Company Australia.

Earlier this year we released one of our most anticipated cars to date, the all-new Hyundai ELEXIO, and the response from fans, customers and press alike has been nothing short of incredible.

We’ve also received a lot of comments asking about all sorts of things, from its range to space and everything in between, so today I’m going to answer your top 12 most frequently asked questions about our do-it-all SUV.

Does the Hyundai ELEXIO have 
any high-tech features?

It does indeed. In addition to Bluelink Connected Car Services[P3], the all-new Hyundai ELEXIO is equipped with our highly advanced Connect-C infotainment system, complete with a 27-inch screen and integrated head-up display. It has all the helpful features you’d expect – real-time navigation, smartphone connectivity – and even some fun games[P6].

Yes, the Hyundai ELEXIO is a medium-sized SUV designed to fit five adults comfortably. It also has 60/40 split folding rear seats; when they're down, you get up to 1,540[W4] litres of rear space.

full five-star ANCAP Safety Rating.

What accessories are available with the Hyundai ELEXIO?

There are plenty of accessories designed to help personalize your brand-new ELEXIO. For everyday protection, you can add tailored carpet, floor mats and a dash mat, all designed to fit the exact interior contours of the ELEXIO. If you're often loading up the boot or heading to the beach, a cargo liner tray is a great option to help contain spills, mud and sand. And if you want a sportier look, you can upgrade to 20-inch Busan Gloss Black Alloy Wheels for a sleek, premium finish.

Can I tow with the Hyundai ELEXIO?

What’s your favourite feature of the Hyundai ELEXIO, Ronald?

Good question! My favorite feature has to be the hidden cup holders. On the center console you can either have two cup holders and a tray, or if you need more, just flip it over – now you've got four cup holders. Neat, right?
