Hyundai Creta New Variants, Pricing, And Features

Hyundai has broadened the Creta's appeal by introducing two new trim levels, the EX(O) and SX Premium. Notably, the EX(O) variant now offers the panoramic sunroof at a more accessible price point. Additionally, Hyundai has refined the feature sets of existing Creta trims, including the SX(O). This adjustment to the Creta's lineup aims to provide consumers with a wider range of choices and updated feature combinations, and the updates and pricing are as follows.

EX(O)

Hyundai's introduction of the EX(O) trim for the Creta marks a strategic shift in feature accessibility. Positioned above the standard EX model, the EX(O) expands powertrain options to include both naturally aspirated petrol and diesel engines. Notably, it brings the panoramic sunroof and LED reading lights to a more accessible price point. Specifically, the panoramic sunroof, previously exclusive to the S(O) trim at Rs 14.47 lakh, is now available at a reduction of up to Rs 1.5 lakh. Furthermore, for those seeking automatic transmissions, the EX(O) CVT offers a Rs 1.6 lakh price advantage over the former entry-level petrol automatic, the S(O). Similarly, the EX(O) diesel automatic is now Rs 1.58 lakh more budget-friendly compared to the S(O) diesel automatic, making these premium features more attainable for a broader customer base.

SX Premium

Hyundai has also introduced the SX Premium variant for the Creta, which is strategically positioned to bridge the gap between the SX Tech and SX(O) trims. This new offering offers more comfort and premium features, including ventilated front seats, an 8-way powered driver's seat, an 8-speaker Bose sound system, and leatherette upholstery.

Notably, this motion-sensing smart key has also been extended to the S(O) variant, broadening its availability across the Creta lineup. The pricing for the SX(O) trims is as follows:

Powertrain Options

The Creta provides a versatile range of powertrains, including a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol with 6-speed manual or IVT churning out 115PS power and 144 Nm of torque, a 1.5-litre diesel with 6-speed manual or automatic with 116PS power and 250Nm torque, and a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol paired solely with a 7-speed DCT; the Creta N Line, also featuring the turbo petrol, offers the choice of a 6-speed manual or 7-speed DCT with the highest 160PS power and max torque od 253 Nm.
