Staria in 2026 — what's new

For 2026, the Malaysian Hyundai Staria gains a floor centre console in place of the front middle seat, with no price change. The range continues with four 2.2D variants: Style 10-Seater, Prime 10-Seater, Prestige 10-Seater and Prestige 7-Seater. All use the 2,199 cc, 175 hp diesel engine, automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. No Malaysian hybrid or electric Staria update is announced.

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, automatic gearbox, front-wheel drive and 10-seat capacity listed for the RM196,888 Prime 10-Seater and RM209,888 Prestige 10-Seater. On paper, the RM17,000 and RM30,000 steps are for trim rather than mechanicals, so check the equipment list before paying more. The RM267,888 Prestige 7-Seater is the choice only if its specific seating arrangement and trim justify an RM88,000 jump over Style.

Verdict

The Staria’s appeal is straightforward: a 10-seat diesel MPV range starting below the Kia Carnival’s RM188,888 entry price, while costing RM14,888 more than the Toyota Innova Zenix. Its four variants share 175 hp, front-wheel drive and an automatic transmission, so the key decision is how much trim and seating configuration matter. The range-topper sits close to the Maxus MIFA 9’s RM269,888 starting price.
