Verdict
The Hyundai Staria 2.2D Prestige 7-Seater asks for a sizeable extra outlay without any mechanical gain: both use the 175 hp/431 Nm 2.2-litre diesel, eight-speed automatic and front-wheel drive, with the same 12.4-second 0-100 km/h time. Its case rests on comfort, adding power-adjustable front seats, automatic climate control, a dual sunroof and a full LCD instrument display. For Malaysian buyers who need the same 10-seat capacity and 430-litre boot, the Hyundai Staria 2.2D Prestige 10-Seater is the more sensible buy unless those cabin upgrades matter on every trip.
Pick the Hyundai Staria 2.2D Prestige 10-Seater if you want the same 175 hp, 431 Nm drivetrain, safety systems and 10-seat listing for less money.
Pick the Hyundai Staria 2.2D Prestige 7-Seater if power-adjustable front seats, automatic climate control, a dual sunroof and LCD instruments justify the premium.
