The Hyundai Starex has been in continuous production since 1998, spanning multiple generations as a spacious MPV and commercial van. Early models carry straightforward toughened rear windows, while later variants introduced heated rear glass and integrated antenna features on selected trims.
From the mid-2010s onwards, some Starex models gained Hyundai SmartSense ADAS features, though these primarily operate through the front windscreen camera. Rear windows on most variants remain simpler than front glass, with heating and antenna available on certain specification levels but not universally across the range.
