The Exter is loaded with amenities like an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a semi-digital driver’s display, cruise control, wireless phone charging, auto AC, dual camera dashcam, and a sunroof. Its safety kit includes six airbags, electronic stability control (ESC), tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and a rear parking camera.
