2024 Hyundai Creta
The Hyundai Creta has been the best-selling mid-size SUV in the India car market for most parts of time since it was first introduced here back in 2015. The Creta’s inherent strengths lie in its catchy styling on the outside, spacious cabin, a decent feature list and a plethora of engine and transmission choices. The latest Hyundai Creta was launched in January of 2024 and builds on these strengths.
The 2024 Hyundai Creta is available in six single tone colour options - Robust Emerald Pearl (New), Fiery Red, Ranger Khaki, Abyss Black, Atlas White, Titan Grey and a dual-tone colour option – White plus Black roof. The Hyundai Creta is also available in seven broad variants - E, EX, S, S(O), SX, SX Tech, SX (O). The company has decided to continue offering 2024 Creta with petrol as well as diesel engine options but on the updated model, there is now a new 1.5-litre Turbo GDi petrol motor available as well. While this particular motor has been seen on other Hyundai models too, it is for the first time that it makes its way under the hood of the Creta. As far as transmission choices are concerned, the latest Creta gets six- speed manual, IVT (Intelligent Variable Transmission), seven-speed DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission) and six-speed Automatic transmission.
The 2024 Hyundai Creta has no changes in terms of its overall proportions but does sport an all-new grille at the front, updated tail light designs at the back while the alloys too have been refreshed. The cabin too remains as spacious as ever but the layout of the dashboard has been given a change. The screens now boast of an updated interface while the addition of ADAS or advanced driver-assistance system technology is the biggest highlight available.
Equipped with a host of safety features that include six airbags as standard, ABS with EBD, Hill Hold Control and others, the Creta is also one of the safest vehicles in the segment.
Hyundai Creta rivals a long list of competitors in the hotly-contested mid-size SUV space in the Indian automobile market. Creta takes on Kia Seltos, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder, Tata Harrier, Mahindra Scorpio-N, MG Hector, Volkswagen Taigun and Skoda Kushaq, among others in its segment. What particularly helps Creta’s case is its striking looks and that it is backed by Hyundai’s robust sales and service network across India. Where it perhaps lacks is the unavailability of a strong hybrid engine that some of its rivals have on offer. Nonetheless, with close to 10 lakh units sold in India so far, Creta has firmly established itself as a practical city as well as highway commute option for a family of four to five.
