Hyundai has recently launched its 2nd gen Creta with major design updates and also engines as well and let us dive into the topic then.
Engines: Hyundai is now going to power the new Creta with an all-new 1.5lit Diesel / Petrol and also there's a new 1.4lit TGDi engine which is a powerful version of petrol when compared and also this produces a whopping 140Ps of power and the rest do produce a healthy output of 115Ps of power as well but we do will regret the lack of the high performing 1.6lit 128Ps power engine which works buttery smooth and powerful at the same time. These are the engines which are sourced from Kia and these are having both AT/MT in the 2-Engine formats i.e, 1.5lit Diesel/Petrol but the 1.4lit DCT comes with an auto-gearbox with paddle-shifters and one can choose which one they want and Hyundai could further use these engines for many of their vehicles in future as like for Venue, Verna and all.
Design: At first glance, some people could like it while some would express their feelings of confusion whether it's the new Creta or smaller version of Palisade or something! But truth to be told that it seems Hyundai designed it keeping the Palisade which is the XL Sized SUV from Hyundai's portfolio but this could polarize the perspectives of many people and the front with that big cascading grille, Tri-Beam LED headlamps with foglamps underneath, C-shaped DRL's which resemble the palisade and coming to the rear part, it too has that c-shaped LED strip which runs same like the DRL's at the front and it's quite distinct and also the red strip of LED in between seems good and there's a new alloy design which is very different from what we have seen till now and in my opinion they could have designed something else than this because it sort of looks like a plastic cover for the steel wheels in my opinion but the top-end variant with the black and silver combination is what going to differentiate it as an alloy.
The Sideways of Creta hasn't much changed but with the dual-tone design it looks well but as I mentioned at the start that it seems different for different people and many could have a difference of opinions when it comes to the design but its good that they haven't changed the original design philosophy at all.
Interiors: This Time it seems that Hyundai has taken high care of the interiors and also that work has been visible from inside with that big touch screen infotainment system, digital instrumentation cluster with traction control, drive modes, flat-bottom steering wheel, new steering design, colored ac vents, new Blue-link connectivity features with voice commands, powered driver seat, panoramic sunroof, spacy looking seat color combination and 3-step rear seat reclining function and spacious boot, electronic power brake and the gear knob with that chunkiness feels very muscular to look and also to hold as well. This also comes with rear ac vents, smart air-purifier that filters the air, TPMS and many more like this.
It seems that Hyundai has improved the Creta on an overall basis be it interiors or exteriors or safety-wise its offering 2 airbags as standard and also they've reported that they've used 72% of Advanced High Strength Steel in this to make sure it is safe and sturdy as well and now it is going to take its throne back from Kia Seltos because it was the king of this compact SUV segment for some years and now it is back with a bang!
Even after the huge launch like Harrier AT, Creta is going to stand on its toes very steadily because its one big reason and that is the price. Yes! It's cheaper than the Kia Seltos and also the Harrier when it comes to the highly equipped variants which are SX, SX optional variants as well. The Comparison of Hyundai Creta, Tata Harrier, and Kia Seltos is going to come very very soon and also do have a look at the prices of the Creta below.
