With this new generation model, Hyundai has tried to position the Creta as a more upscale offering by bringing in premium features, and more vibrant powertrain options. So if you are looking for a feature-rich experience and a comfortable family SUV, then the Hyundai Creta should definitely be on your list of cars to check out. Its range of petrol and diesel powertrains only add to its versatility, allowing one to pick between performance, refinement and fuel efficiency.
