The second-generation Hyundai Creta mid-size SUV is set to undergo a significant upgrade in India, with the carmaker confirming that the updated model will make its debut on January 16, 2024. In anticipation of its official arrival, numerous spy images and videos have surfaced, revealing intriguing details. Notably, a fresh set of interior images has been unveiled, showcasing a fully digital instrument cluster similar to the updated Seltos.
The latest video footage confirms that the 2024 Hyundai Creta facelift will boast a digital screen displaying information related to its Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), a major highlight of the new Creta. The SUV’s Level 2 ADAS suite will include features such as lane keep assist, emergency braking system, blind spot monitoring system, adaptive cruise control, collision avoidance, high beam assist, and more. Although the footage is somewhat blurry, it provides a glimpse of the dashboard layout, which appears to be similar to the existing model.
New Hyundai Creta Facelift
The new Hyundai Creta facelift will introduce a two-spoke steering wheel reminiscent of the Hyundai Ioniq 5. There are expectations of the SUV featuring dual-zone climate control and a new climate control panel. Notably, no changes seem to have been made to its infotainment system, which retains the same 10.2-inch unit. Additionally, the new Creta facelift might come equipped with a dashcam (similar to the Exter micro SUV) and soft-touch materials within the cabin.
Several noticeable cosmetic changes are in store for the 2024 Hyundai Creta, including Palisade-inspired vertically placed headlamps, horizontal LED DRLs, a newly-designed grille, alloy wheels, and taillights featuring a new LED connected lightbar.
Under the hood, the engine bay will house a new 1.5L turbo petrol engine, replacing the discontinued 1.4L turbo petrol motor. This engine, borrowed from the Verna, delivers 160bhp and 253Nm of torque. It will be available with two gearbox options – a 6-speed iMT and a 7-speed DCT. The new Creta will retain the existing 1.5L naturally aspirated petrol and 1.5L turbo diesel engines.
