Upcoming Hyundai Creta Interior Spied
The recently sighted test prototype has unveiled fresh insights. Anticipated to make its debut early in 2024, the 2024 Creta is set to receive substantial feature upgrades. The latest test mule was equipped with ADAS radar and a front camera, dual-zone climate control, and a new button and it is expected to inherit the same features as the recently updated Seltos. However, despite these forthcoming changes, the 2024 Creta will maintain the existing features found in the outgoing model, ensuring it continues to provide popular features like the 10-inch infotainment system, panoramic sunroof, ventilated seats, and more.
In terms of design, the 2024 Hyundai Creta is set to receive a refreshed front profile, updated bumpers, and blackened B-pillars. Expectations also include revised alloy wheels featuring a potential new design, possibly retaining the multi-spoke pattern seen on the current model. Turning to the rear, it is predicted that the tail lamp design will undergo changes, incorporating H-shaped taillight designs, an adjusted tailgate with a dedicated number plate recess, fog lights, and simulated skid plates, similar to the connected lamp concept found in models like the Venue.
2024 Hyundai Creta Facelift Engine
2024 Creta is poised to bring a fresh powertrain alternative into play, namely a 1.5-liter turbocharged petrol engine. This particular engine made its debut within the Hyundai lineup, initially featured in the Verna. It boasts an impressive power output of 160 bhp and a peak torque of 253 Nm, and it's paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT). Additionally, it's expected that the Creta will maintain its current engine options, which consist of a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated petrol engine and a 1.5-liter diesel engine.

Verdict
The forthcoming Creta is set to bring about significant improvements compared to the current generation. Its feature lineup is expected to align with the offerings of the latest Seltos. Furthermore, the addition of the new engine choice is likely to appeal to a broader customer base for the Creta, which has already been a significant sales success in the mid-size SUV segment. The 2024 Hyundai Creta will continue to compete with the KIA Seltos, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder, Skoda Kushaq, and MG Astor.
