Hyundai Motor Company is planning to expand its Indian product portfolio with a range of new models, which are slated to launch next year. The lineup will include 3 new models – a new mini SUV (Hyundai AX1), a new compact MPV and Hyundai Creta 7-seater SUV. We have seen multiple spy pictures of the upcoming 7-seater Creta revealing its interesting design details. This time around, the model has been spotted testing on Indian roads.
– Unlike the 5-seater model that has slats on the front grille, the 7-seater Hyundai Creta features studs giving it more aggressive looks.
– The SUV also gets a larger rear quarter glass, newly-designed wraparound taillamps and a revised rear bumper.
– Rests of the design bits are exactly similar to the 5-seater sibling including alloy wheels, headlamps and fog lamp assembly.
– The 7-seater Hyundai Creta appears longer than its younger sibling. The added length will help the carmaker accommodate the third row of seats. Read – Hyundai AX1 To Challenge Tata HBX Mini SUV
