2024 Hyundai Creta Facelift: Standout Features
Get ready for some impressive upgrades in the Creta facelift! One standout feature is the introduction of ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System), which is like a tech magnet for customers. The new Creta is expected to have similar features as the recently launched Seltos. Think about ADAS Level 2, seen in the Seltos facelift and Honda Elevate that's likely to find its way into the Creta too. Plus, there's a 360-degree surround-view camera that's going to be part of the deal.
Even though the interior is still a bit of a mystery, there are some hints about what's coming. The steering wheel looks quite similar to what we have now, paddle shifters included. But, keep your eyes peeled for a super sleek digital cluster, like the one in the Alcazar, with lane cameras for that extra edge. And guess what? An updated touchscreen infotainment system, just like the cool one in the Kia Seltos, is also on the menu.

2024 Hyundai Creta Facelift: Refreshing Exterior and Design Changes
Hyundai is giving the Creta a remarkable makeover, embracing the brand's latest design approach. Taking cues from the sleek Hyundai Santa Fe, the Creta is getting a modern update that harmonizes with the family's distinctive style.
As you spot the Creta facelift out and about, you'll immediately notice the bold transformation at the front. The grille gets a bold upgrade, showing off a rugged style similar to the new-gen Verna. The headlights, LED DRLs, and grille design all get a fresh new look.
While the side profile remains largely familiar, fresh diamond-cut alloy wheels will add a dash of elegance. Hyundai isn't confining the makeover to superficial touches; expect sheet metal changes to redefine the exterior.
Engine Updates and Arrival
The new Creta is keeping its strong engines. It will still have the reliable 1.5-litre natural petrol, the zippy 1.5-litre turbo petrol, and the efficient 1.5-litre diesel options. And don't worry, there will be different gearbox choices to suit what you like manual, iMT, IVT, AT, and DCT something for everyone.
Production of the Creta facelift is slated to commence in January 2024 at Hyundai's Chennai plant, with the market introduction projected for February. Anticipate a price range spanning Rs 11 lakh to Rs 20 lakh, ex-showroom.
The Creta facelift's launch is earmarked for the first half of 2024, sparking fierce competition with rivals: Volkswagen Taigun, Maruti Grand Vitara, Kia Seltos, Honda Elevate and more.
