The new Hyundai Creta Facelift also gets advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) with features like lane keep assist, blind-spot monitor, autonomous emergency braking and adaptive cruise control as standard or optional, depending on the variant and the market. Hyundai’s new Creta Facelift SUV draws design inspiration from the new-gen Tucson.
The facelifted Hyundai Creta is expected to be launched in India next year and it’s likely to retain ADAS features for the market. Its engine options, however, are likely to remain unchanged. In India, the Creta gets a 1.5-litre naturally-aspirated petrol, a 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol, and a 1.5-litre diesel engine with multiple transmission options. The Hyundai Creta is currently priced from Rs 10.44 lakh to Rs 18.24 lakh, ex-showroom.
