HYUNDAI Motor Malaysia (HMY) has brought fresh excitement to the ongoing Kuala Lumpur International Motor Show (KLIMS) 2026 with an exclusive mid-event teaser preview of its highly anticipated new Hyundai STARGAZER.
Serving as a limited-time public showcase, the special presentation offers visitors a first-hand glimpse into Hyundai’s expanding mobility line-up and its progressive future product direction for the Malaysian market.
As part of HMY’s broader growth narrative following its establishment as a direct subsidiary, the introduction of the new Hyundai STARGAZER reinforces the brand’s commitment to delivering versatile, innovative and lifestyle-driven vehicles that resonate with the needs of local consumers.
This KLIMS 2026 preview also highlights Hyundai’s agility in diversifying its local portfolio, moving swiftly from high-performance electric vehicles to practical family movers — ensuring there is a premium, innovative Hyundai model suited to every stage of Malaysian life.
“The new Hyundai STARGAZER is what we call a ‘Wehicle’,” said Jahabarnisa Haja Mohideen, managing director of Hyundai Motor Malaysia.
“It is not just about the car, but the people inside and around it.
We believe the ‘WE’ in ‘Wehicle’ is the most important part, and because the ‘WE’ matters, Hyundai designed this car to be a smart and protective road companion for modern families in Malaysia.
The new Hyundai STARGAZER delivers superiority in safety, technology and convenience for every member of the family.”
An expanding line-up
The new and upcoming STARGAZER is set to further strengthen Malaysia’s family mobility segment.
Engineered with a strong emphasis on spaciousness, futuristic design, practical everyday usability and smart technology, it is positioned as a lifestyle companion for road trips, daily commutes and family adventures.
Built for the Malaysian family
The new Hyundai STARGAZER departs from conventional styling with its sleek, aerodynamic silhouette and Hyundai’s signature full-width ‘H’ LED light bar at the rear.
Catering to younger families seeking a bolder edge, HMY is also using the KLIMS platform to introduce the STARGAZER X variant — a distinct, SUV-inspired version fitted with sporty bumpers, a rear spoiler, overfenders and blacked-out branding. Inside, the three-row cabin is designed as a spacious sanctuary for modern family life rather than a conventional people mover.
The interior offers premium convenience through lifestyle-oriented technology, highlighted by an immersive digital display of up to 10.25 inches, a wireless charging pad, and practical additions such as integrated seat-back tables for passenger comfort.
Powered by an efficient 1.5-litre Smartstream engine paired with a smooth Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT), the model prioritises safety through the Hyundai SmartSense Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS), which includes features such as Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go.
The new Hyundai STARGAZER will also come with a segment-leading 8-year/160,000km warranty.
