Hyundai Staria Electric unveiled: South Korean automaker Hyundai Motor Company has officially unveiled the all-new Hyundai Staria Electric, a futuristic electric MPV designed for buyers who want maximum space, comfort and low running costs.

Hyundai Staria Electric Features &
Specifications
Powerful electric drivetrain with long range
The Hyundai Staria Electric is powered by an 84 kWh lithium-ion battery paired with an electric motor producing 218 PS. Despite its large size and people-mover focus, the MPV promises smooth and confident performance on highways and city roads. According to Hyundai, the Staria Electric delivers a WLTP-certified range of up to 400 km on a single charge, making it suitable for long-distance family trips as well as daily urban use.
Ultra-fast charging with 800V technology
One of the biggest highlights of the Staria Electric is its advanced 800-volt electrical architecture. Using DC fast charging, the battery can be charged from 10% to 80% in just around 20 minutes. For home or workplace charging, Hyundai also offers an 11 kW AC charger, ensuring flexibility for different charging needs.
Futuristic design with spacious cabin
The Staria Electric stands out with its bold, futuristic design. A sleek front light bar, clean closed-off grille and aerodynamic profile give it a concept-car-like appearance. Inside, the flat floor design—made possible by the underfloor battery—creates a roomy and open cabin. Large windows and a high roofline further enhance the sense of space and comfort.
Hyundai will offer the Staria Electric in both 7-seater and 9-seater configurations. The 7-seat version focuses on a more premium, lounge-like experience, while the 9-seat variant is aimed at large families and commercial shuttle use.
High-tech features and advanced safety
The cabin is loaded with modern technology, including two 12.3-inch displays—one for the digital instrument cluster and another for the infotainment system. Another standout feature is Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) technology, which allows users to power external devices such as laptops, small appliances or camping equipment directly from the vehicle’s battery.
On the safety front, the MPV is equipped with Hyundai SmartSense ADAS, offering advanced driver assistance features for highway driving, parking and everyday safety.
