Hyundai has provided a sneak peek of the upcoming Creta facelift in India before its official launch on January 16. The revamped model features significant exterior and interior updates, including a fresh design, enhanced technology, and the reintroduction of a turbo-petrol engine. Bookings for the Creta facelift are now open at a token amount of Rs 25,000, and customers who had booked the outgoing model have the option to switch their bookings to the new version.
The exterior changes are substantial, with a redesigned front grille, headlamp, and bumper assembly, giving the car a more upright and boxy appearance. A full-width LED light band and rectangular, vertically positioned LED headlamp clusters contribute to the updated front-end design. The rear showcases a new tailgate, full-width LED tail-lamps resembling the front design, and a revised number plate housing. While side profile images are not available, minimal changes are expected, aside from new alloy wheels.
The interior updates are even more extensive, featuring a new dashboard design with twin 10.25-inch connected screens, reminiscent of the Kia Seltos. The center console includes redesigned central AC vents, a band of physical buttons, and a touch panel for HVAC controls. Notable additions in terms of features include an ADAS suite, 360-degree camera, and dual-zone climate control. Engine options include the existing 115hp, 1.5-liter petrol and diesel engines, and the return of the 160hp, 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine. The Creta facelift will be available in seven trim levels, six mono-tone color options, and one dual-tone color option.
Upon its launch, the Creta facelift will compete with other midsize SUVs like the Kia Seltos, Maruti Grand Vitara, Honda Elevate, and Volkswagen Taigun in the market.
