2024 Hyundai Creta facelift spied testing again
The Hyundai Creta facelift has been spotted testing once again. The SUV has been due for a mid-life facelift for a while. In fact, the South Korean automaker introduced the Creta facelift for international markets in two years ago with major exterior changes. But the India-spec model is also expected to come with a redesigned interior and a new petrol powertrain.
2024 Hyundai Creta facelift: Design and InteriorThe test mule of the Creta facelift was covered in camouflage but a few of its design elements were still visible. The upcoming Creta facelift, as seen in the spy pictures, is will feature a an overhauled exterior, including a new grille, redesigned vertically stacked LED headlights, new front and rear bumpers, reworked taillamps, and a new set of alloy wheels. In comparison, the international-spec Creta facelift gets a pre-facelift Tucson-style fascia with the parametric jewel grille (which also houses daytime running lights) and vertically stacked headlamps.
On the inside, the revamped interior could come with a dual-tone theme, a single-piece panel housing all-digital instrument cluster and a touchscreen infotainment system, an air purifier, wireless charging pad, leatherette upholstery, a hi-fi sound system, powered and ventilated front seats, telematics, dual-zone temperature control, USB Type-C ports, and more.
2024 Hyundai Creta facelift: FeaturesThe Creta facelift will get six airbags as standard across all variants as other Hyundai models. We expect Hyundai to offer other few safety features as standard as well. More importantly, it will boast ADAS in addition to a 360deg camera, a panoramic sunroof, ESP, traction control, hill hold assist, front and rear parking sensors, puddle lamps, updated connected car tech, and paddle shifters, among others.
2024 Hyundai Creta facelift: PowertrainThe refreshed Creta will get a new 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine similar to the Seltos facelift, Alcazar, and the new Verna. We believed Hyundai will carry forward the 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine and a 1.5-litre turbocharged diesel unit from the previous model. The transmission options may include a six-speed manual, a six-speed automatic, a CVT automatic, a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic, and a six-speed iMT.
2024 Hyundai Creta facelift: Pricing
While the on-sale Creta prices range between Rs 10.87 lakh and Rs 19.20 lakh (ex-showroom), expect the updated Creta to command a higher premium. Upon launch, it will take on the Kia Seltos facelift, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder, Skoda Kushaq, Volkswagen Taigun, and MG Astor.
