The automaker will also strengthen its off-road SUV model lineup in coming years. More details on the upcoming new Hyundai SUVs are likely to be revealed in near future.
This year, Hyundai India will roll out the Venue N-Line, updated Creta and Ioniq 5 electric crossover. Talking about the 2022 Hyundai Creta, the SUV is expected to hit roads during 2022 festive season. One of the major upgrades might come in the form of the ADAS (advanced driver assistance system) offering features such as lane assist, autonomous emergency braking system and more. The Creta facelift will continue to come with the existing engine-gearbox combinations.
The Hyundai Venue N-Line will be sportier version of the subcompact SUV with some cosmetic enhancements. The model will have red accents on the front bumper, roof rails, wheel arches and at the rear.
