Thanks to Indonesian automotive sleuth Indra Fathan, we now have the first unmasked images of the Stargazer, scooped from promotional material highlighting the exterior, interior, and highlight features such as the Hyundai SmartSense ADAS suite.

This is our first glimpse of the Hyundai Staria, the Korean carmaker's upcoming multi-purpose vehicle (MPV). Characterised by a smooth silhouette and clean lines, the Staria won't look out of place in your usual sci-fi movies.
