The Hyundai Creta 2025 solidifies its superiority in India’s compact SUV segment with stylish updates, new variants, and a full-spectrum powertrain offering—including a new electric version. With cutting-edge safety, premium comfort, and strong resale credentials, the Creta remains India’s top-selling SUV in mid-2025.
Bold Exterior & Premium Styling
The updated Creta sports a more upright “parametric” grille, split quad-LED headlamps, LED DRLs, and full-width LED tail lamps. New 17-inch alloy wheels and sleeker bumpers contribute to a rugged-yet-refined stance, giving the facelift a sleek modern identity.
Refined Interior & Comfort-Forward Cabin
Inside, the Creta integrates a dual 10.25-inch screen setup (infotainment + digital driver display) with floating dash styling. Top trims boast a panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, ambient lighting, and leatherette scooped seats for enhanced long-drive comfort. Dual-zone climate control, Bose 8-speaker sound system, wireless rear charging, and rain-sensor wipers elevate the tech quotient.
Powertrain Options for Every User
Buyers can choose from:
- 1.5L naturally aspirated petrol (115 PS / 144 Nm) with manual or IVT
- 1.5L turbo petrol (160 PS / 253 Nm) with 7-speed DCT
- 1.5L diesel (116 PS / 250 Nm) available with manual or 6-speed AT
- New Electric Creta EV, starting at ₹17.99 lakh, offering up to 473 km range with ADAS Level 2 support.
Mileage ranges from around 17.4 km/l for petrol, 18–19 km/l for turbo petrol, and 21–22 km/l for diesel, maintaining strong fuel efficiency.
New Variants & Feature Highlights
Hyundai has added two key variants in 2025:
- EX(O): Offers the panoramic sunroof even in entry trims, with a starting price of ₹12.97 lakh.
- SX Premium: Adds ventilated seats, power-adjustable driver seat, leather upholstery, and Bose sound system; priced from ₹16.18 lakh.
Other added features across trims now include motion-sensing smart key, rain sensors, wireless rear charger, and scooped rear seatbacks. New dual-tone colors such as Titan Grey Matte and Starry Night enhance visual appeal.
Safety & ADAS: Next-Level Assurance
All variants now come standard with six airbags, ABS with EBD, ISOFIX mounts, ESC, and rear parking sensors. Higher models feature a robust Level 2 ADAS suite with 19 smart functions like adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot assist, and 360-degree camera.
Pricing & Segment Positioning
Creta’s ex-showroom prices range from around ₹11.11 lakh (E petrol MT) to ₹20.18 lakh (turbo petrol DCT top trim)—continuing to span budget to premium sub-segment effectively. The full-electric variant adds a strong green appeal starting at ₹17.99 lakh.
Community Sentiment & Market Leadership
Users appreciate Creta’s premium cabin feel and feature depth, though some find the petrol’s low-end torque to be average. Regardless, it maintains its dominance as the bestselling car in India as of June 2025.
Final Verdict
The Hyundai Creta 2025 continues to lead thanks to its strong design, varied engine lineup—including a segment-first EV option—and best-in-class safety and convenience features. From budget E trims to top-tier turbo-automatic or electric variants, it covers every need in the compact SUV segment. With excellent resale backup and expanded variant appeal, it remains a clear segment leader.
