Trending Questions on Hyundai Creta Electric - Answered by Autocar Experts
We own two cars: a 2024 top-line manual Taigun and a 2025 GT Line VW. My daily city run is about 70 km and my wife’s is about 40 km. Should we buy an EV given our usage, and should we consider selling one of the cars? We are doctors and both cars are great to drive, so we are unsure what makes the most sense.
Yes, the Volkswagen Taigun is a lot of fun to drive, however if you are open to going electric, you could sell one and get an EV. That way, you will still have an internal combustion car for any occasional highway trips.
Since both you and your wife's daily drive is within the city, either of you could use the EV, and range would not be an issue. Also, besides the lower running costs, you could also benefit from things like toll and parking fee waivers for EVs in certain cities.
Consider the Hyundai Creta EV, which is a no-nonsense and practical car. However, if you do want a fun-to-drive electric, check out the Mahindra XEV 9S, or even the Mahindra BE6, which is very exciting to drive but has quite a few ergonomic issues.
I am planning to buy an EV primarily for city use as a self-driver. My app runs about 600 km per month, and my budget is around ₹20 lakh (can stretch if needed). I have ruled out the BE 6 due to its rear seat, and I find the Tiago and Tigor have cheap-filling plastics inside. I am considering the Nexon or the Curve. My priorities are comfort, easy ingress and exit, reliability and good resale value. What do you recommend?
The Hyundai Creta EV would be a good choice; the ride comfort is excellent, the space inside is good, and it is very well loaded. Ingress and egress are natural and easy, and the car is very reliable with all of the powertrain as well as the body electronics well sorted. As for resale value, it's hard to predict that for any EV currently, as benchmarks have not yet been set.
I am planning to upgrade from my Grand i10 Nios to an automatic SUV. Initially, I was inclined towards diesel vehicles for better mileage, like the Creta SX, Harrier, and HyCross GX. Recently, however, I test drove the Creta EV and MG ZS and was impressed by them as well. If I am aiming for a 400km stretch on the highway, which EV should I pick, or should I stick to diesel vehicles only? My budget is Rs 23 lakh maximum.
Hello. I currently drive a 13-year-old Honda Brio and am planning to buy a new mini-SUV or SUV with a ₹20 lakh on-road budget. My monthly running will be about 1,000-1,500 km. Which fuel type is better for long-term ownership - petrol, hybrid, or electric - and which models should I consider?
Opting for an electric SUV could be save you from a lot of uncertainties in the future around fuel mix, registration validity, etc., which might concern ICE vehicle owners.
With a budget of Rs 20 lakh, the most sensible and trouble-free EV option is an entry-level Hyundai Creta Electric. If you want space, features and a fully-loaded car, the MG Windsor EV is also a good option to consider.
The entry-level Mahindra BE 6 is a stand-out EV that also falls within your Rs 20 lakh budget.
Hi sir, I own a 2016 Hyundai Creta 1.6 diesel SX with 1.17 lakh km on the odometer. I am planning to replace it with a budget of up to ₹30 lakh. I drive 60 km on alternate days with a mix of highway and city usage. I want a vehicle with at least the same power and fuel efficiency as my current car. Also, should I consider an EV?
I have been using a diesel car for the past 10 years. My daily commute is 25 to 30 km, with occasional long drives of around 300 km once a month. I want to switch to an electric car this time. Is it a good idea to buy an EV now? I am from a Tier 3 city in Andhra Pradesh, and I like feature-rich EVs. Please suggest one around Rs 25 to 30 lakh.
If everything checks out, though, the Hyundai Creta electric is an excellent package that has good range, all the essential features and is great for occasional long trips too. If not, this Hyundai car also has a very good diesel engine with the same features and equipment as the Electric, and will take away most of the EV downsides.
I want to buy a 5-seater SUV. My usage is mostly in the city, around 300 km a month. I’m looking for something a level above the Tata Nexon in both budget and size. What would you recommend?
I am planning to buy a new car, the first one in my family. My daily commute will be around 50 km, mostly within the city. I have no specific preference between ICE or EV, but I like the BE6. Is it okay to choose it as my first car as a novice driver?
The Mahindra BE6 is a fun and exciting car, but it isn't the ideal choice for a new driver. It is quite powerful, and the performance can catch inexperienced drivers off guard. Moreover, the BE6 is wide, and visibility isn't the best, which could cause some discomfort.
Among electric vehicles of a similar price, the Hyundai Creta Electric makes for a generally more user-friendly choice and is the one we'd recommend you consider.
I want to buy an electric SUV in the ₹20-22 lakh range — which is the best option?
The Hyundai Creta Electric with the long-range battery is a very good option that has features, good range and comfort. If you want more space, the Kia Carens Clavis EV has the same powertrain as the Creta and features set too. Either one of these two will be good.
My running is around 2,500 to 3,000 kilometres every month. I currently drive an i20 CRDi diesel and have covered 3,70,000 kilometres over the last 15 years. Which would be a better choice for me, a strong hybrid or an electric vehicle? Should I wait a little longer for better models?
An electric vehicle will prove to be far more economical for you if you primarily plan to charge it at home. Most new-age EVs like the Mahindra BE6, Hyundai Creta EV and Tata Harrier EV can comfortably handle highway trips of around 300–400 km on a single charge. So yes, if you have access to home charging, an EV would be the better choice for you.
