Hyundai Creta exterior 

The Hyundai Creta is both new-age and agreeable in look with a large grille complemented by a new lighting arrangement. The setup comprises LED Daytime Running Lights, sequential turn indicators and a light bar atop the grille and the Creta’s more squared-out front works. The Creta sports a more angular look at the back and gets full LED tail-lamps and a full-width LED light bar that lend it a new lighting signature while a new rear bumper completes the Creta’s makeover.

Hyundai Creta Interior 

It gets a  10.25-inch touchscreen that flows into the 10.25-inch digital driver's display. Outside visibility is good and the front seats are also comfy enough. No soft-touch materials on the dash and fit-finish isn’t Hyundai’s best. The rear gets two USB Type-C charging ports and space remains a highlight with good legroom and adequate width for three adults to sit in comfort. The rear backrest gets a two-step adjust and there are comfy pillows with the headrests. Boot volume is a competitive 433 litres.
 

Hyundai Creta features and safety 

Comfort and convenience features include a powered driver’s seat, ventilated front seats, new dual-zone climate control, onboard air purifier, electric parking brake and a panoramic sunroof. The 360-degree camera is a boon and the Bose sound system is impressive. Connected tech brings with it multiple features along with an eSIM-based setup that lets you remotely keep an eye on your car. Standard safety features include 6 airbags, ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, front and rear disc brakes, tyre pressure monitor and ISOFIX child seat mounts. Top-spec variants further see the addition of ADAS. A function that proved handy is the blind view monitor.
 

Hyundai Creta engine, gearbox and performance

The Hyundai Creta is on offer with three engine options. a 115hp, 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol; a 116hp, 1.5-litre diesel and a new 160hp, 1.5-litre turbo-petrol. The new Turbo Petrol is strong through the rev range and makes the Creta deceivingly quick. The 7-speed dual-clutch auto the engine comes paired with is nice, but it does tend to trip at low speeds, occasionally fumbling through the lower gears. The 115hp, 1.5-litre petrol unit offers pleasant performance for urban duties, while the diesel engine is smooth and quiet by diesel standards with enough grunt for highway duties and fuel economy is a highlight with an official figure of 21.8kpl for the MT version. 
 

Hyundai Creta ride and handling

The Creta remains an easygoing and user-friendly SUV. Ride comfort is pleasant with just a hint of firmness at low speeds. The Creta drives confidently at higher speeds too; it’s not quite an SUV keen drivers will lust for but there’s enough of a connect with the front wheels and handling is predictable. Braking performance is also good (front and rear discs are standard) though more feel at the pedal would be nice.
 

Hyundai Creta price and verdict

The 2024 Hyundai Creta range starts at Rs 11 lakh (ex-showroom) and goes all the way up to Rs 20 lakh, and in its latest avatar, the Creta has become even easier to recommend. As a package, the Creta gets most things right. It’s spacious, well-equipped, and in its latest avatar, easier on the eye as well. The driving experience is satisfactory across the five engine-gearbox variants and there’s the promise of enhanced crash safety too.
