Recently Asked User Questions
Q. I am planning to buy a car and short listed Creta and Rapid diesel automatic models. Which is worthy in usage and post service?
- How are you going to use them?
- Definitely creta
- Creta
Q. Which variant of Creta is value for money?
- The Creta S powered by the 1.4-litre diesel engine with manual transmission is the one to go for if you’re mostly driven by a chauffeur and travel a lot. The Creta S (1.6D) is the most affordable variant to go for if you need the diesel-auto combination, which means you’re mostly driving yourself and doing a lot of miles too, to justify the diesel engine. If you are looking for an automatic, this is the best you could have as the automatic transmission is not available in the top-spec SX(O) variant. However, if you are someone who is looking for a manual transmission and can spend a bit more, we would suggest you to go for the SX(O) variant. The SX(O) is the fully loaded, top-of-the-line variant of the Creta and gets a plethora of features including significant safety features. And a premium of over Rs 1.5 lakh for these features is amply justified in our books. So, if you don’t mind spending extra, we would suggest you to go for this variant considering the high level of safety and features it offer.
- That which appeals to you. All models are not only good but also excellent in their own unique identity and features. Creata is a performing car. For once, Hyundai has come out of their Tindrum shell, to give a real car to Indians, and that’s Creta
- We suggest you go for the SX variant ( both in petrol and diesel) and the option of automatic is quite attractive. If you have the highest concern for the safety, go for the top SX (O) otherwise E+ is good for getting maximum value for your money.
Q. Which is better between Creta and Verna
- Why buy Creta:Ride and ground clearance: While the Creta isn’t the traditional butch SUV, it still rides higher than the Verna and is more suitable for poor quality roads.Utility: Thanks to its foldable rear seat, the Creta allows you to carry anything from a suitcase to a cycle in the back. Additionally, you also have access to your luggage while on the move.Cabin space: The Creta is the more spacious of the two.Why buy Verna:Feature packed: The Verna is packed to the gills when it comes to features.Bigger boot: At 480 liters, the Verna offers more luggage space than the Creta with 5 people on board.The current Creta is aging and is about to receive a facelift this year. The Verna, on the other hand, is fresh from a recent full-model update.
- Both petrol & diesel versions of Verna are the fastest accelerating sedans in it's class along with the highest top speed. Petrol Verna looses out to Honda City by a whisker in terms of aural pleasure and overall flexibility while the diesel Verna has the best engine in it's class infact beats the rivals by a huge margin. No wonder, the 1.6 litre diesel is considered one of the best engine in the world. If you seek pure unadulterated performance without sacrificing fuel economy pick the diesel version.
- Well you gotta decide you want a hatchback or a sedan. then you should compare and compare between the different companies as mostly companies have one model for a specific segment. i guess its all about the looks first and then the budget and features
