Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors (HSDM), which just launched its luxurious 7-seater MPV Staria Premium, has no plans to introduce the 11-seater version of the Staria into the Malaysian market.
Management of HSDM said the Grand Starex will remain HSDM’s sole 11-seater MPV retailed in the market. With the launch of the Staria Premium, HSDM is expanding its MPV offerings. The Staria Premium is Hyundai’s first luxurious MPV at par with premium Japanese MPVs, and it sits in a category that is a notch higher from the Grand Starex.
The Grand Starex features a 2.5L turbodiesel engine that is mated to a five-speed automatic transmission, swivel seats on the second row, a suite of safety features, and overhead display monitor among other features.
The Staria Premium is made to order directly from Korea with a starting price of *RM358,888 (*applicable for Peninsula Malaysia. OTR price is inclusive of the Penjana Sales Tax waiver but excludes insurance) with a two-year or 50,000km (whichever comes first) warranty while the Grand Starex retails at a starting price of *RM165,888 (*applicable for Peninsula Malaysia. OTR price is inclusive of the Penjana Sales Tax waiver but excludes insurance) with a 5-year or 300,000km warranty (whichever comes first) as well as 3 years of free service.
