KUALA LUMPUR, 15 JUNE 2026 – Hyundai Motor Malaysia (HMY) has injected fresh excitement into 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 preview, the special showcase offers visitors a firsthand glimpse into Hyundai’s expanding mobility lineup and 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 dedication to delivering versatile, innovative, and lifestyle-driven vehicles that resonate deeply with local consumer needs.
This preview at KLIMS 2026 highlights Hyundai’s agility in diversifying its local portfolio, moving swiftly from high-performance electric vehicles to versatile family movers – ensuring that there is a premium, innovative Hyundai vehicle tailored for every stage of Malaysian life.
“The new Hyundai STARGAZER is what we call a ‘Wehicle’,” said Ms. Jahabarnisa Haja Mohideen, Managing Director of Hyundai Motor Malaysia. “It’s not just about the car but the people inside and around it. We believe that 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 across safety, technology, and convenience for every single member of the family.”
An Expanding Lineup
The new and upcoming STARGAZER is poised to further enhance the family mobility landscape in Malaysia. Engineered with a strong emphasis on comfortable space utilisation, futuristic aesthetics, practical daily usability, and smart technology; it is designed to serve as an ideal lifestyle companion for road trips, daily commutes, and family adventures.
Built for the Malaysian Family
The new Hyundai STARGAZER breaks away 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 who want a bolder edge, HMY is also using the KLIMS platform to introduce its new STARGAZER X variant – a distinct, SUV- inspired variant equipped with sporty bumpers, a rear sporty spoiler, overfenders and blacked-out branding.
Inside, the three-row cabin is optimised as a spacious sanctuary for modern family life rather than a basic people mover. The interior delivers premium convenience through accessible, lifestyle-oriented tech, highlighted by an immersive digital display up to 10.25 inches, wireless device charging pad, and practical additions like integrated seat-back tables for passenger comfort.
Powered by an efficient 1.5-litre Smartstream engine and a smooth Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT), the vehicle prioritizes family safety with the Hyundai SmartSense ADAS suite, offering high-value assistance features like Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go. The new Hyundai STARGAZER will also arrive backed by a segment-shaking 8-Year/160,000km warranty.
