Hyundai Exter Knight Edition: Exterior 

Upfront, there are no design changes as such, except for a couple of cosmetic tweaks. These minor updates include a blacked-out skid plate with red accents, and a black treatment for the Hyundai logo and “Exter” badging. 

From the sides, it sports the same wheel design, but finished in black. You also get red brake callipers which dials up the sportiness quotient. 

The rear gets red accents on the tailgate, and a “Knight” emblem placed on the right side of it. It also gets a black-coloured rear skid plate which adds contrast to the red inserts as well as blacked-out badging. 

Overall, the special edition does bring in a special look to the exterior of the Exter, and you will be able to differentiate it from the standard model. The sportier elements act like design mods to some extent. For those wanting a stealthy appearance, can opt for the Abyss Black hue.
