Overview
The Hyundai Staria is a D-segment MPV launched in 2021, aimed at buyers who need space for large families or passenger-carrying duties. Malaysia’s range uses a 2.2-litre diesel engine, front-wheel drive and an automatic transmission, with 10-seat models forming the core line-up. Prices start from RM179,888.
Staria in 2026 — what's new
For 2026, Malaysia’s diesel Staria gets a floor centre console in place of the front middle seat, with no price change. The current range remains centred on the 2.2-litre 175 hp diesel, front-wheel drive and automatic combination, in Style, Prime and Prestige trims, plus a Prestige 7-Seater. Separately, the 2026 Staria Electric debuts with an 84 kWh battery, a 400 km WLTP estimated range and seven- or nine-seat layouts. Korea’s facelift gains a 1.6 turbo hybrid and drops diesel power.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should start with the RM179,888 2.2D Style 10-Seater. It has the same 2,199 cc, 175 hp diesel engine, front-wheel drive and automatic transmission as the RM196,888 Prime 10-Seater and RM209,888 Prestige 10-Seater. The RM17,000 step to Prime and further RM13,000 to Prestige have no stated mechanical advantage, so check the equipment list before paying extra. Choose the RM267,888 Prestige 7-Seater only if that seating configuration is the requirement.

Verdict
The Staria is for buyers who place passenger capacity ahead of the usual SUV format. Its base price is RM14,888 above the Toyota Innova Zenix, but RM9,000 below the Kia Carnival and RM90,000 below the Maxus MIFA 9. The diesel, front-wheel-drive layout is shared by the three 10-Seater variants, so trim choice needs close scrutiny rather than assuming the higher-priced versions drive differently. The 2026 floor console also changes the front-row arrangement.
