Hyundai Creta vs Honda Elevate: Looks
Hyundai has made some much-needed changes to the design of the Creta. Yes, the previous version did sell in good numbers but the design was a bit polarizing. The curvy lines are now replaced by straight lines. The overall profile is also now squared-off which has helped in improving the road presence of the Creta.

Then there is the Elevate, which has a more squared-off design than the Creta with a huge imposing grille in the front and a rectangular headlamp setup. However, the road presence of the Elevate is not as strong as the Creta mainly because it is smaller in length.
