The facelifted Hyundai Creta SUV is expected to be launched in India next year. In the latest development, a camouflaged test mule of the upcoming car has been spied testing in South Korea revealing key design details. The pictures (courtesy Carwale) suggest that it will have a new grille, refreshed headlights, and updated alloy wheels. Here are more details.
The car will sport an updated grille
The facelifted Hyundai Creta will have a muscular bonnet, a new grille based on the brand's latest design language, sleek split-style headlights, and a wide air dam. It will be flanked by roof rails, blacked-out ORVMs, B-pillars, and designer alloy wheels. Wrap-around LED taillights and a redesigned bumper will be available on the rear end of the vehicle.
The vehicle will have a smart key, ventilated leather seats
The facelifted Hyundai Creta should have a spacious 5-seater cabin, featuring a soft finish on the dashboard, a smart key, ventilated leather seats, and a power steering wheel. It is likely to house a touchscreen infotainment system with support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. For ensuring passengers' safety, multiple airbags, ABS with EBD, and a rear-view camera should be available.
There should be a choice of three engines
The Hyundai Creta (facelift) should be offered with three BS6-compliant engine choices: a 1.5-liter petrol mill that makes 113.4hp/144Nm, a 1.5-liter diesel motor that generates 113.4hp/250Nm, and a 1.4-liter turbo-petrol unit that makes 138hp/242Nm. Transmission duties on the car are likely to be taken care of by a 6-speed manual, a 6-speed automatic, an IVT, and a 7-speed DCT gearbox.
