2024 Hyundai Stargazer X preview: First drive of the more rugged Stargazer | Top Gear Philippines

Last year, the Hyundai Stargazer surprised and impressed us when it won our four-way Big Test against Japanese entry-level subcompact seven-seaters. Hyundai then brought in the Stargazer X a few months later, and after a bit of a wait, we finally got to spend some time driving this higher-riding, more rugged-looking version of the model.

At P1,348,000, it’s P60,000 more expensive than the top-spec seven-seat Stargazer GLS Premium. That higher price tag gets you higher ground clearance, sportier styling, and an updated interior, particularly the dashboard. Click play on the video above for our first impressions, and let us know in the comments what you think of Hyundai’s latest people-hauler.

Here's my take I would rather choose passengers and drivers comments rather than people looking at it from the outside.

Ayos to value for money talaga, ayos na yung dashboard, van looking lang talaga not a fan. Pero hands down value for money to guys!

Kunti nalang BRV Vx mo na. walang headrest sa middle seat second row, laki ng A pillar, pag maliit ka di mo tanaw yung hood, taas ng bintana, pero maluwag naman talaga.

The car you want and the car you can't have 😂

I feel so damn torn sa kotseng toh. Maganda sana interior pero yung exterior talaga ang weird. Mukhang apple magic mouse

[Im_pat]

the only thing that is holding us back on getting this car is the looks, majority talaga sa family namin including my friends dont like the looks of the headlight. For it's the best mpv on its segment however the the headlights just look a little bit awkward. This is subjective naman hehe

[PaintUrFace-zfsw]

Parang di happy yung mga nasa second row :(

[raulgarduno]

..if you look at the rear a few meters away you will notice it resembles the face of Deadpool🙄✌✌✌

Why most top gears staff are chubby? Hold off that pizza and pares.

Pros:
easy drive
Ok fuel consumption (8.5 to 11km/l city driving...16 to 20k /l in the highway)
Lots of leg space
Lots of cubby hol3s


Cons:
Sometimes, runs 6.5km/l in super traffic conditions
3rd row gives out hinge noises.
Compressor makes annoying adjusting sounds.
Rear view screen gets stuck on the screen.
Water gets stuck and pools inside the front position lights (the "robocop" headlights) after carwash or rain (and you cant get it out unless you disassemble the lights).
