Creta feels very responsive at slow speeds. Ride and handling is more car-like.

Creta’s cabin quality is good. The bits and pieces used look quite upmarket too; driving position is good thanks to well placed seats and steering wheel adjustment.

Its long seat base all-around is very comfy.

Boot looks larger than its actual capacity.

Touchscreen infotainment not the best around.

Auto ’box works seamlessly.

Rear-AC vents not very effective.

1.6-litre diesel mill is smooth.

XUV feels easy to drive in city. Ride quality is decent. It doesn’t handle well, though

Black and beige theme looks nice. Quality of plastics is only average; minimal steering rake adjust makes it difficult to find ideal position.

Front seats comfy.

Rear seats a bit upright.

No boot space with third-row seats up.

Bluesense infotainment nice to use.

6-speed auto ’box works well.

Headlamps with light guides look nice.

2.2-litre engine has good pulling power.
