Following the footsteps of its relative, the Kia Carnival, Hyundai added a petrol-electric hybrid option to the Hyundai Staria in South Korea. The Korean H brand announced pre-orders for the Staria Hybrid with prices ranging between KRW 34.33 million to KRW 36.53 million (~RM 122.5k-130k).

The 2021 Hyundai Staria (US4) has just entered the ASEAN region, but before it came the 2021 Kia Carnival (KA4).

This is our first glimpse of the Hyundai Staria, the Korean carmaker's upcoming multi-purpose vehicle (MPV).
