2025 Hyundai Creta Electric range updates

Claimed range increased by roughly 7.8 percent

Hyundai Creta Electric price increased, gets higher range via OTAAll prices are ex-showroom, India.

The Creta Electric’s claimed range has been bumped up from 390km to 420km for the 42kWh battery pack, and 473km to 510km for the 51.4kWh unit. This represents an uptick of around 7.8 percent in range for both battery configurations and should translate to a meaningful improvement in the Creta Electric's real-world range, too. Power and torque figures remain unchanged for the Creta Electric. Hyundai says that the longer range, along with faster charging capabilities (up to 200kW) for both battery options, has been enabled via over-the-air (OTA) updates. Existing Creta Electric owners could be able to get the longer range and quicker charging as well.
