Hyundai Creta

Installed is a fully digital, 10.25-Inch TFT LCD Supervision Cluster.

Interior of the five-seater comes in an all-black fabric upholstery, featuring manual adjustable front seats and 60:40 split-folding rear seats.

A proper SUV, its athletically stocky silhouette offers generous head, shoulder and legroom, thus front and rear occupants get ample space. 

The uniquely designed, four-spoke black with silver trimming leather steering wheel gets multi-switches, paddle shifters, manual tilt and telescopic adjustments, and features Electric Power Steering (EPS).

It has several storage areas. E.g., centre console compartments, large sized door pockets, back seat pockets, and a decent-sized glove box.

Boxy and robust, the rear end compliments the front nicely, featuring just a hint of a coupe-esque roofline that gets a sportily subtle roof-edge spoiler.

Clean and simple, it sees the Creta script boldly and largely placed in the middle of the tailgate, with angular lines from the four corners moving inwards into it. 

Completing the layout is a black-coloured bumper, paired to a stretched-out lower intake and other trim elements, just like the front. 

The side mirrors are electronically adjusted and folded, with turn- and blind spot-indicators.

Fitted are ventilated disc brakes, measuring 381 MM (front) and 356 MM (rear). It also gets an Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) with Auto Hold.

The 2023 Creta gets the Hyundai SmartSense suite of Advanced Driver Assistant System (ADAS). Featured are Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA), Conventional Cruise Control, Blind-spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA), Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), Lane Following Assist (LFA), Driver Attention Warning (DAW), Leading Vehicle Departure Alert (LVDA), Rear Occupant Alert (ROA), Rear Cross Traffic Collision Avoidance-Assist (RCCA), Safe Exit Warning (SEW) and High Beam Assist (HBA).

Four drive modes are at the driver’s disposal. Eco, Normal, Sport and Smart.

The suite of ADAS will make long and short journeys less tiresome, at the same time easing the day-to-day manoeuvrability of the SUV. 

The sound system comes with a setup of four speakers and two tweeters. 

Power is transmitted to the front wheels via a two-wheel drive system (2WD).  

It can go from 0 to 100 KM/H in 12 seconds and hit a top speed of 170 KM/H.

It has a fuel tank capacity of 50-Litres.

The 2023 Creta has smart key with push start button, remote start function, single-zone auto temperature control with rear air-conditioning vents, multi-function steering wheel, Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) with Auto Hold, individual interior reading lights, rear armrest, reverse camera, parking sensors, automatic wipers and headlamps, voice control and speed sensing door locks. 

It offers a nice solid experience. It is very spacious with firm handling and is very suitable as a daily driver. Overall, inside and out, performance- and comfort-wise, the ride quality is satisfactory.

Good sound insulation with the NVH aspects accounted for. The cabin is well-designed, enhancing the in-car ambience.

Overall, the cabin is able to suppress unwanted noises well and make them barely noticeable, even when cruising through bumpy asphalts or at high speeds.
