"The diesel-auto is a lifesaver. My parents bought me the Creta with the promise that I would have to maintain it on my own and also fill fuel on my own. The Cretaโs great efficiency means that my fortnightly tank fill is a breeze on my pocket and Hyundaiโs great and affordable service also means that my Creta stays in great shape all the time."
"The top-end diesel model is a little excessive and engine noise is quite audible at higher rpms! Apart from that though, my diesel Creta is a good partner-in-crime. The fuel efficiency is so good for a car this size and I enjoy the huge feature list of the Creta. My young daughter loves the panoramic sunroof on our after-dinner drives on the weekends!"
"The naturally aspirated petrol engine is so smooth to drive. The iMT option is the cherry on top of this cake as it still gives the feel of driving a manual transmission car, and I donโt have to keep pressing the clutch in heavy traffic."
"My wife loves the Creta and thatโs why we picked it. Personally, I donโt like the design so much. The diesel engine is very noisy as well and I donโt expect that in a car that costs more than 20 lakh! I love the touchscreen though. Best in this price bracket that I have used. Waiting to take this out on a highway journey before forming a full opinion."
"Best purchase ever! I was hesitant in picking between the Creta and the Seltos, but went with the Creta due to Hyundaiโs bigger service network. Not only is the service quality top notch, but the feature list of the Creta is the envy of my neighbours. The ride quality is another highlight and the performance of the turbo-petrol engine adds a splash of excitement to my highway drives!"
