In just three months, the compact SUV Hyundai Creta has managed to clock a whopping 1 lakh bookings. The latest facelift of the Creta was unveiled on January 3 this year. Hyundai also revealed another interesting detail. It is said that 71 percent of bookings are for the variant with a sunroof.
Hyundai Creta crosses 1 lakh bookings
Apart from the sunroof being a popular feature among Creta buyers, Hyundai Motor India has also announced that 52 percent of all Cretas booked come with connected car technology. This buying trend shows that Indian car buyers are now opting for more premium models and trims.
For those who think it’s a big deal that Creta added 1 lakh bookings in just three months, keep in mind that the 50,000 bookings mark was already reached at the end of the first month. This success can be attributed to the popularity of earlier versions of the Creta in India. The SUV has been a leader in this segment for some time.
Why is the Hyundai Creta so popular?
Now that we have mentioned that the Creta is the most popular compact SUV in the country, you may be wondering why the Creta has so many buyers in India. Well, the answer to your question lies in the following five reasons.
Fresh look
One of the first reasons for Creta’s success in India is its looks. The Creta looked very bold and aggressive right when it was launched. Since then, the company has radically changed its design.
Fortunately, despite initial reservations, all of the Creta’s exterior designs were accepted by buyers. The latest model is no exception and offers a completely new and modern look. It features connected LED headlights, taillights and a striking front fascia. The overall proportions of the SUV are also good.
Spacious cabin
Despite being smaller than full-size SUVs, the Creta offers a very spacious cabin. The use of light-colored materials in the interior contributes to the airy feel of this SUV. The interior layout of the Creta has been made even more minimalistic, giving the interior a more spacious feel.
The seats are well structured and offer great comfort and support. Additionally, the materials used inside feel premium, adding to the overall appeal of the new Creta.
Function loaded
The Hyundai Creta not only offers a spacious interior feel but is also loaded with features. Its features include a full TFT cockpit with seamlessly integrated 10.25-inch screens for the new infotainment system and the instrument console. It also gets a panoramic sunroof and leather upholstery.
Other features of the Creta include an 8-way power driver’s seat, ambient lighting, rear sunshade, ventilated front seats, wireless charger, ride and traction control modes, premium BOSE audio system and a cooled glove box. It also has a full suite of ADAS Level 2 features.
Multiple drive options
Apart from looking good from the outside and inside, the Hyundai Creta comes with multiple powertrain options. That’s why there’s a Creta for every type of buyer. Hyundai has retained two engines from the previous facelift models.
The first is a 1.5 liter naturally aspirated petrol engine with 115 hp and a 1.5 liter diesel engine with 115 hp and a standard 6-speed manual transmission. There is an optional CVT transmission for the petrol version and a 6-speed automatic transmission for the diesel version.
Hyundai has added a 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine with 160PS and 253Nm as a third option. This engine comes standard with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
Customers trust Hyundai
Hyundai has made a big name for itself in the Indian car market over the years. The company has significantly expanded its dealer, sales and service network in the country. Through this, the company has built strong customer trust in India. In addition, Hyundai is a very reliable vehicle.
