Hyundai Creta Features And Overview

The Hyundai Creta is a five seater midsize SUV, and one of the best known names in its class in India. It sits tall, so you get a clear view of the road and an easy step in and out. It suits a family that wants one car for the daily school run, the office commute and the odd weekend trip. Five seats keep it practical without making it feel too big for city streets.

You get three engines to choose from. The 1.5 petrol makes 115 PS and keeps things simple for city use. The 1.5 diesel makes 116 PS and a strong 250 Nm from just 1,500 rpm, so it pulls hard when the car is full. The 1.5 turbo petrol is the lively one at 160 PS. Gearboxes run from a manual up to a CVT, a dual-clutch DCT and a torque-converter automatic.

On price, the Creta covers a wide band. It starts at about 10.91 lakh and climbs to 20.30 lakh ex-showroom, so the gap from bottom to top is large. The cheapest way in is the base E trim. At the top sits the King Lounge Edition Diesel AT. It helps to check where the price range lands before you settle on a trim, then weigh all 27 variants side by side.

With 27 variants on sale, there is a lot to sort through, but that also means you can match the kit to your budget. The ladder runs from the plain E up to the fully loaded King at the top. Every Creta seats five, so the whole family fits for the school run or a day out. If looks matter to you, spend a minute on the colours on offer.
