Hyundai Creta Facelift Garners 100,000 Bookings Since January 2024 Launch
New Delhi: Hyundai India has reported an impressive milestone for the Creta facelift, with over one lakh bookings accumulated since its launch in January 2024. The updated Creta, which has been receiving strong demand, is currently undergoing deliveries across the country.
Of the bookings received, 71 percent are for variants equipped with sunroofs, indicating a significant preference among customers for this feature. Additionally, more than half, specifically 52 percent, of buyers have opted for versions integrated with connected car technology, available in mid- and higher-spec variants.
The Hyundai Creta has been a consistent performer in the SUV segment, achieving an average monthly sales figure of approximately 13,000 units in the last fiscal year. Since its inception in 2015, Hyundai has successfully sold over 10 lakh units of the Creta SUV across various generations.
With a diverse range of offerings, including five engine and gearbox options and a total of 19 variants, the facelifted Creta caters to a wide spectrum of consumer preferences. Recently, Hyundai introduced the Creta N Line variant, priced between Rs 16.82 lakh and Rs 20.30 lakh (ex-showroom). Competing against rivals such as the Kia Seltos, Maruti Grand Vitara, Citroen C3 Aircross, Toyota Hyryder, Honda Elevate, Volkswagen Taigun, and the Skoda Kushaq SUVs, the Creta continues to assert its presence in the Indian market.
Looking ahead, Hyundai is gearing up for the launch of the all-electric derivative of the Creta later this year. While the exact pricing details are yet to be announced, it is expected to debut in early 2025, entering the market to compete with electric offerings like the Maruti eVX, MG ZS EV, and Tata Curvv EV.
The overwhelming response to the Creta facelift underscores its popularity among Indian consumers, reflecting Hyundai’s successful blend of innovation, technology, and customer-centric offerings in the SUV segment.
