Hyundai Creta is a very popular SUV in the Indian market. The Creta was first launched in India in the year 2015 and it became an instant hit. Over the years, Creta got several updates and the company launched the second-generation model of the SUV in India in early 2020. Now, after just a year of the India launch of the new generation model, the new 2022 Hyundai Creta Facelift has been spied on the test for the first time ever. In this article, we have shared with you all the details about it.
2022 Hyundai Creta Facelift - What To Expect?
The upcoming new Hyundai Creta Facelift will get some big styling updates. It will get Hyundai's latest design theme called the Sensuous Sportiness and it will resemble the new-gen Hyundai Tucson to a great extent which is yet to arrive in India. At the front, it will get a bold design for the parametric grille with revised LED headlamps, DRLs and a tweaked bumper. The side profile won't get many changes but might get new alloy wheels. However, at the rear, the updates might be substantial to give the SUV an imposing look. On the inside, the Hyundai Creta Facelift might get some new features too.

The first one is a 1.5-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine that comes mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox and an IVT (CVT).

New Hyundai Creta Facelift - Launch Timeline
The new second-generation Hyundai Creta was launched in India in early 2020 and so it is quite new to our market. But, it was launched in China in 2019 and so the facelifted model might get launched there first by mid-2022. We believe the India launch might take place in 2023.
