Just three months after its launch in Indonesia, Hyundai has officially introduced the mid-life upgrade of the Stargazer in another Southeast Asian country.
The 2025 Hyundai Stargazer boasts a robust and modern design, with a completely redesigned front fascia. Hyundai has abandoned the rounded Staria-inspired styling in favor of a sharper, Palisade-like aesthetic.
The expanded grille features bold horizontal slats, paired with silver front bumper accents for a rugged, SUV-inspired look. The side profile retains the previous generation’s layout, while the Stargazer X variant adds a roof rack and wheel arch cladding for enhanced sportiness.
Both the Stargazer and Stargazer X come equipped with new 17-inch alloy wheels—silver for the standard model and black for the Stargazer X. The 205 mm ground clearance ensures versatility in urban and lightly rugged terrains.
The rear features refreshed “H”-shaped LED taillights with larger vertical elements, while the license plate has been repositioned lower on the bumper for a sleeker, more modern rear profile.
In the Philippines, the 2025 Hyundai Stargazer is available in Creamy White Pearl, Dragon Red Pearl, Magnetic Silver Metallic, Midnight Black Pearl, and Titan Gray Metallic.
The 2025 Hyundai Stargazer’s cabin impresses with cutting-edge features rarely seen in compact MPVs. Highlights include a shift-by-wire electronic gear selector integrated into the steering wheel, optimizing space and usability.
The widescreen infotainment display and digital instrument cluster deliver a seamless, modern visual experience. Ventilated front seats and second-row captain’s chairs with individual armrests enhance passenger comfort.
Premium Bose audio, electronic parking brake with Auto Hold, and blind-spot view monitoring displayed on the instrument cluster elevate convenience. Hyundai SmartSense includes Adaptive Cruise Control and Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance for maximum driving confidence.
Powering the Stargazer and Stargazer X is a 1.5L SmartStream Gamma II MPI engine, delivering 115 hp at 6,300 rpm and 144 Nm at 4,500 rpm. Paired with a CVT transmission and front-wheel drive, it supports E10 fuel.
In the Philippines, the Hyundai Stargazer is priced between PHP 1,118,000 and PHP 1,378,000 (approximately USD 20,000 to USD 24,500).
