Hyundai Creta Latest Updates
How much will the Creta cost me?
The Hyundai Creta comes with a price tag that starts at Rs 10.84 lakh and goes up to Rs 20.15 lakh (ex-showroom). So, there’s a Creta for almost every budget!
How many variants does the Hyundai Creta have?
The Hyundai Creta comes in seven broad variants: E, EX, S, S+, SX, SX Tech and SX (O), all of which are offered in 3 different powertrain options. Here's a quick breakdown of which variants are available with which engine and transmission options:
-
1.5-litre petrol manual: Available in all variants
-
1.5-litre diesel manual: Available in all variants
-
1.5-litre petrol CVT: Available only in S(O), SX Tech and SX(O)
-
1.5-litre diesel automatic (6-speed torque converter): Available only in S(O) and SX(O)
-
1.5-litre turbo-petrol with 7-speed DCT automatic: Available only in the top-end SX(O) variant
Which variant offers the best value for money?
If you’re on a strict budget and want a manual transmission Creta on a budget, then the base E variant is your best option. You may accessorise it as per your needs. If you’re looking for the sweet spot, the S(O) variant is where it's at. This is also the starting variant if you want an automatic. It offers a perfect mix of must-have and feel-good features such as keyless entry, push button start-stop, dual-zone climate control, power-folding mirrors with auto-fold functionality, 17-inch black alloy wheels and a panoramic sunroof.
What kind of features does the Hyundai Creta offer?
Like most Hyundai cars, the Creta comes loaded with features. Depending on the variant, you can get a panoramic sunroof, a large touchscreen infotainment system, wireless phone charging, ventilated front seats, a Bose sound system, 360-degree camera and even paddle shifters in the automatic and IVT variants.
Is the Hyundai Creta a spacious car?
Oh, absolutely! The Creta can seat five adults quite comfortably, with the rear seats featuring a reclining function for added comfort. The 433-litre boot space, though shallow, is still generous, making packing multiple small trolley bags for road trips a breeze. The seats can also be folded in a 60:40 split to create more room.
What engines and transmissions does the Creta offer?
You’ve got three engine options: a 1.5-litre petrol, a punchy 1.5-litre turbo-petrol and a 1.5-litre diesel. As for transmissions, you can choose between a 6-speed manual or IVT, a CVT automatic, and a 7-speed DCT automatic, depending on the engine.
What mileage can I expect from the Hyundai Creta?
When it comes to mileage, the Creta isn’t as efficient as the Maruti Grand Vitara or the Toyota Hyryder owing to their smart hybrid engine tech. However, you can expect around 17.5 kmpl from the 1.5-litre petrol (both manual and automatic), almost 22 kmpl from the 1.5-litre diesel manual and 19 kmpl from the diesel automatic, while the turbo-petrol should give you 18.4 kmpl as well.
Does the Hyundai Creta offer enough safety features?
The older Creta wasn’t exactly a crash test champion, and the new model is yet to be tested for crash safety. But all signs point to a higher safety rating this time, especially since the new Verna has also achieved a full 5-star rating in the Global NCAP crash test.
Standard safety features in the Creta include six airbags, ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, vehicle stability management, hill-start assist, and front and rear parking sensors, among others. Higher variants also come equipped with Level 2 ADAS, which further enhances safety with features such as adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and blind-spot detection.
What colours is the Creta available in?
There are seven colours to choose from, including one dual-tone shade called Atlas White with an Abyss Black roof, which we really like. Among the monotone shades, you can choose from Abyss Black, Fiery Red (two of our favourite shades on the Creta!), Robust Emerald Pearl, Ranger Khaki, Titan Grey, and Atlas White.
Is the Hyundai Creta worth buying?
In a word: Yes! The Creta offers a blend of style, comfort, and features that make it an excellent overall package. With its spacious interior, tech-loaded cabin, and a variety of engine options, it’s a great choice for anyone looking for a versatile SUV. And with so many variants on offer ranging between Rs 11 lakh to 20 lakh, there’s something to suit every budget.
What options can I consider besides the Creta?
If you're shopping for a compact SUV, there are lots of other options in this crowded segment, including the Kia Seltos, Maruti Grand Vitara, Toyota Hyryder, Volkswagen Taigun, Skoda Kushaq, Honda Elevate, MG Astor, and Citroen C3 AirCross. If you fancy a sportier version of the Creta, then you may want to check out the Creta N-Line as well. If you are not particularly in a rush and willing to wait until March 2025, then there’s an electric version of the Creta in the works, too!
The best-selling compact SUV in India has achieved this milestone in just 6 months!

Hyundai Creta Expert Review
The Hyundai Creta is a compact SUV, available in the Rs 12-22 lakh price range. The SUV is among the bestsellers among the competition, which includes the Kia Seltos, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, Toyota Hyryder, Volkswagen Taigun, Skoda Kushaq, Honda Elevate, Citroen C3 AirCross and MG Astor. For a similar price, you could also consider sedan alternatives such as the Hyundai Verna, Honda City, Volkswagen Virtus, and Skoda Slavia. Also, if you want a larger SUV for similar money, and are willing to compromise on a few features, the mid-spec models of the Tata Harrier, MG Hector and Mahindra XUV700 can also be considered.
Looks
Hyundai has updated the design of the Creta thoroughly. It bears no resemblance to the previous model, except when viewed from the side.
The front profile now appears taller and wider, thanks to the new bonnet with stronger lines, the new lighting elements and the larger grille. Hyundai has used dark chrome instead of shiny chrome on the grille, which looks classy — especially paired with darker body colours. There are inverted L-shaped daytime running lamps up top, connected by a light bar that functions as the pilot lamp. Under the daytime running lamps, you’ll spot sequential turn indicators.
Hyundai claims to have worked on complaints of poor headlight performance on the old model. There’s a large LED headlight unit on the bumper. There are claims of better and stronger lighting, and first observations about the headlights are positive. They seem a little more powerful than before. Here too, Hyundai has skipped out on fog lamps entirely.
The side profile is instantly recognisable as a Creta, thanks to the silver trim above the windows. Hyundai has opted to keep the tyre size the same as before. However, the 17-inch alloy wheels on the top-end model now have a new design.
From the rear, most would be happy to see that the controversial design has been changed to something that’s pleasing to most eyes. A large connected tail lamp is the centre of attention, and there are slim sequential indicators here too. Oddly, there’s a single central reverse lamp that’s placed quite low on the bumper. This can be a little hard to spot in malls or parking lots.
Overall, the Creta is now less controversial than before. If you were not sure about the older Creta’s looks, this one most certainly will change your opinion.
Interior
The updated dashboard design is yet another reason to favour the Creta. Hyundai has neatly sliced the dashboard into two sections. The lower section, including the glovebox, wireless charging compartment and gear lever area, remains unchanged. The upper section, however, has been redone entirely, for a more upmarket look. This has also enabled Hyundai to give a small storage space right above the glovebox.
With the previous version, we did not like the interior quality, especially on top of the dashboard. This has been fixed with a smooth, almost rubber-like texture on the dashboard which feels nice to touch. The choice of colours is interesting — with off-white, grey and copper highlights. There’s a lot of piano/gloss black surfaces here, around the new AC vents and around the climate control console — all of which are prone to picking up a lot of scratches.
Hyundai has chosen a muted grey-white theme for the upholstery which looks and feels premium. In terms of space, there’s nothing new to report. The front seats remain comfortable for six-footers and there’s ample adjustment in the tilt-telescopic steering and the 8-way powered driver’s seat for you to find a relaxed driving position. The prominent side bolsters will do their bit in reducing tiredness over long drives.
At the rear, a six-footer can sit comfortably. There’s ample kneeroom, foot room, and headroom. Hyundai continues to use a flat seat base and seat back, which allows the Creta to accommodate a third occupant at the rear with a little more ease. Surprisingly, Hyundai still does not offer a central headrest.
You get the option of reclining the rear seats for more comfort. Additionally, there’s a central armrest with cupholders, two type-C chargers, and a privacy curtain.
Boot Space
At 433 litres, the boot space remains unchanged. This boot is shallow and wide. It is wiser to carry multiple small trolley bags instead of a single large ones. We could fit in a medium size and two cabin trolley bags with a little space left for a backpack. Alternatively, four cabin trolley bags will also fit comfortably in this boot. There’s 60:40 split functionality, in case you have to carry more luggage.
Features
The features list of the Creta remains more or less identical. Highlights include:
Keyless Entry |
Push-Button Star-Stop |
8-Way Powered Driver’s Seat |
Leatherette Upholstery |
Front-Seat Ventilation |
Wireless Charger |
10.25” Touchscreen |
8-speaker Bose Sound System |
Ambient Lighting |
Panoramic Sunroof |
With the update, there are a few key additions:
Feature |
Notes |
10.25” Digital Driver’s Display |
Crisp resolution, great response time. Among the best in the segment. Gets configurable themes as well. |
360° Camera |
Clear feed even in low light conditions. Relays feed to the instrument cluster while indicating. Flawless execution. |
Dual-Zone Climate Control |
Driver and passenger can select individual temperatures — functions as intended. |
Safety
Hyundai claims to have made structural changes to the Creta. This includes higher use of advanced high strength and high strength steel in the body of the car. There are reinforcements made to critical areas too. Considering the Verna scored a full five stars in Global NCAP, we have high hopes from the updated Creta.
All variants of the Creta get a host of safety features as standard. This includes:
6 Airbags |
ABS with EBD |
Electronic Stability Control |
Hill Start Assist |
Vehicle Stability Control |
ISOFIX Child seat Mounts |
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System |
Rear Disc Brakes |
The top-spec variants also get Level 2 ADAS functionality which functions with inputs from a front-facing camera, radar and rear radars as well. This opens up a variety of safety features.
Feature |
Test Notes |
Adaptive Cruise Control |
Maintains speed and distance basis the vehicle in front. Four selectable distances. Minimum distance keeps a gap of ~1.5 car length. Feels confidence inspiring and usable on Indian highways. |
Lane Keep Assist |
Front facing camera reads the lane marking and keeps the vehicle in centre of the lane. Will steer automatically to the centre in case you deviate off track unintentionally or attempt to change lane without indicating. |
Forward Collision Warning |
Warns you to brake in case of a possible frontal collision. Works satisfactorily. |
Auto Emergency Braking |
Applies brakes in case you don’t. Braking is expectedly sudden and strong. Feels dependable. |
Rear Cross Traffic Alert/Safe Exit Warning |
Detects objects/vehicles behind the vehicle. Helpful when reversing out of a spot or exiting the vehicle. Alerts are sharp and timely. Brakes are applied in case of possible collision. |
Blind Spot Detection |
Bright red light on the mirror notifies you of vehicles in your blindspot. Detects bikers and cyclists accurately. |
Drive
Hyundai is offering three engine options with the Creta: a 1.5-litre petrol (with manual/CVT), 1.5-litre diesel (with manual/automatic), and a new 1.5-litre turbo-petrol (DCT only).
1.5-litre Petrol
This engine is shared with the Verna, Seltos, and Carens. It’s well-established for its refinement, ease-of-driving, and fuel economy. If you intend to mostly commute in your Creta, and highway trips are going to be sparse, this engine is the one to pick. We would recommend the CVT version, since it makes driving that much easier. This engine is best suited for a relaxed driving style. Overtakes on the highway will require a little planning.
You can expect a fuel economy of around 12-14 kmpl in the city, and between 16-18 kmpl on the highway.
1.5-litre Turbo Petrol
The turbo-petrol has made a comeback in the new Creta. This is the energetic, enthusiast pick of the lot. The response of the engine, especially in Sport mode, is instant. It’s properly quick, and you will find yourself at the speed limit rather effortlessly. Pick this engine if you enjoy driving. Do bear in mind that this engine, especially paired with the DCT, isn’t particularly fuel efficient inside heavy city traffic. Do not be surprised if you average anywhere between 9-11kmpl. It will be more fuel efficient on the open highways, averaging between 15-17kmpl.
1.5-litre Diesel
This engine is the true all-rounder in the lineup, offering the best balance. It’s smooth, powerful and fuel-efficient all at the same time. Even in the manual version, the clutch is light and predictable, making it easy to drive. Here too we would recommend the automatic. This engine is the one to pick if you foresee a lot of interstate driving. The advantage in terms of fuel efficiency will balance out the additional cost.
You can expect the diesel engine to return 12-14 kmpl inside the city, and approximately 18-20 kmpl on the highway.
Ride and Handling
The Creta continues to remain a comfortable vehicle to travel in. Hyundai has tuned the suspension well to absorb shocks from bad roads and undulations. At moderate speeds, there’s very little body movement even over rough surfaces. It’s only when the roads stop existing that the Creta shows some side-to-side movement at crawling speeds. Highway stability is acceptable. It remains composed at triple-digit speeds on smooth roads.
The steering is light and quick. Apt for city use. There’s enough weight for highway journeys too. Through corners, the Creta remains neutral and predictable. There’s some expected body roll, but nothing that can cause you to be nervous.
Verdict
The Creta remains a phenomenal family car. It’s well-built and finished, has ample space and has the right kind of features that one would expect from a vehicle of this size and price.
The Hyundai Creta was never exceptional in one single aspect. It did a lot of things just right or a little more than right. With this update, the reasons to consider or reject the Creta have not changed, and despite the increase in price, the reasons to consider have simply become stronger.
