SEOUL: Hyundai Motor has released teaser images of its new multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) lineup called Staria.

The Staria is equipped with various driver-centric features and futuristic design elements.

Staria offers a futuristic and mysterious exterior, resembling a spaceship. The front is highlighted by a long, horizontal daytime running light and headlamps positioned underneath.

The spaceship vibe is echoed by its expansive panoramic windows and lower belt lines, underscoring the openness of the interior. The height of the cabin is also optimised for premium comfort and convenience, making it ideal for both business and family use.

A higher-end variant called Staria Premium was also announced. Hyundai said it would be available in select markets and takes mobility to the next level, sporting premium features and variant-exclusive finishes for a more luxurious look and feel.

"Staria will provide a completely new experience and value proposition for customers through its unprecedented design features."

Hyundai will unveil more details regarding design features of Staria and Staria Premium in the coming weeks.

According to Hyundai, the name Staria is derived by combining "star" and "ria".

It said Staria references the vehicle's future-oriented product values and streamlined design characteristics defined by one curve gesture silhouettes as well as a clean and pure body volume.
