Hyundai Creta has been the segment leader since its inception in India with segment-best sales of over 10000 units every month. The legacy of the Creta saw a downhill when its cousin, Korean giant of Hyundai- Kia Motors debuted in India with the Seltos and the new entrant has been the most successful product of the year 2020. The Seltos was feature-packed and offered the best bang for the buck.
Now, we have the 2020 incarnation of the Hyundai Creta which sits on the same platform of the Kia Seltos' and also borrows its engines with the Seltos. Following the trend, Hyundai has packed an array of features in the 2020 Creta to regain the dominance it once had. Today we tell you five unique features which the 2020 Hyundai Creta gets which the Kia Seltos misses on!
Voice-controlled Panoramic Sunroof
Hyundai has plonked in the favourite feature of Indians and it is definitely the big panoramic sunroof. It fills the cabin with light and liberates a sense of airiness. On the other hand, Kia Seltos comes with a conventional small electric sunroof and it can't be operated with voice commands either. Hyundai Creta gets a dual-pane sunroof and can be operated with voice commands.
Paddle shifters
Who doesn't want premium slabs of metal fitted behind the steering wheel to shift gears? Hyundai Creta offers premium metal paddle shifters with the 1.4-litre T-GDI petrol engine which comes with 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. It is a pity that Kia Seltos misses out on these despite using the same powertrain and transmission options.

Electric Parking Brake with Auto Hold
2020 Hyundai Creta also boasts with electronic parking brake with auto-hold function. The electric parking brake gives the convenience whereas the auto-hold comes handy on inclinations and prevents the car to roll back. Auto hold holds the car at a place and helps to crawl the car on an inclination easily. None of these features is offered on the Kia Seltos.
One-touch Cruise Control
Hyundai Creta also offers one-touch cruise control with the Creta and it adds to the convenience factor. The cruise control starts at the time you just hit the button and then you can also alter the speed. Kia Seltos sports normal cruise control.

But it was only available for the automatic variants but Hyundai Creta offers the same convenience in both manual and automatic variants. 2020 Hyundai Creta boasts with over 50+ connected car features under the Bluelink technology.
