The 2024 Hyundai Creta facelift has been leaked in full ahead of its launch on January 16. Earlier, the Korean marque partly teased the exterior design and revealed the interior in full. Pre-launch bookings are open and you can reserve one either at a dealership or Hyundai’s official website.

With these design changes, the front-end of the 2024 Hyundai Creta now has a much boxier look. You get a new rectangular grille that dominates the fascia about which sits a full-width LED DRL with an inverted ‘L’-shaped signature. Then there’s the LED headlights which are also now square in shape. A butch front bumper with plenty of cladding and a chunky skid plate round off the macho front-end look.

Save for the snazzy looking new alloys, no changes have been made to the profile. At the rear, you get new connected LED tail lamps with the same signature as the DRL. A revised rear bumper rounds off the overall design.

The insides of the 2024 Hyundai Creta facelift has been heavily revamped with dual integrated screens. It also gets a tonne of new features such as dual-zone climate control, a fully digital driver’s display, 360-degree and ADAS. Take a closer look at the facelifted Hyundai Creta’s insides and what all it comes packed with here.

Joining the existing 1.5-litre diesel and naturally aspirated petrol engines is the carmaker’s 160PS 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine. It can be had with just a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission that drives the front wheels. Detailed specifications of the 2024 Hyundai Creta facelift can be found in this table below:

Considering the significant number of updates, we suspect the 2024 Hyundai Creta facelift to command a notable premium over the pre-facelift model that was priced from Rs 10.87 lakh (ex-showroom). It will continue to rival the Kia Seltos, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, Honda Elevate, Volkswagen Taigun, Skoda Kushaq, and MG Astor.
