Trending Questions on Hyundai Creta - Answered by Autocar Experts
My monthly driving is around 2,000 km, with 80 percent city usage and 20 percent highway. I want to purchase an SUV for a family of four. I am looking for an economical yet powerful car. I am confused between the Creta SX(O) Diesel AT, Seltos GT Diesel AT, XUV700 AX5 Diesel AT, and Scorpio Z8. Please guide me on what I should buy, as I want a performance-driven car and prefer a diesel over a petrol. The car should be strong in power and handling, and also be feature- and tech-loaded.
I am looking to purchase an SUV for my family. My usage is 1,000 to 2,000 km per month. I am currently considering the Creta SX Premium IVT and the Kia Seltos HTX (O) IVT. Which one would you recommend? I was also planning to look at the Tata Sierra as an option. I am confused about whether to buy the car in December 2025 or January 2026.
I own a 2017 i20 Sports petrol and want to upgrade to an SUV. I’m a driving enthusiast and use the car for daily office commute as well as long weekend trips, so usage will be mixed. I like the Hyundai Creta and Alcazar but worry about their mileage and modest petrol power. Is there a reliable, feature-packed alternative (not Suzuki) that offers better fuel efficiency and driving enjoyment?
That is a difficult balance to achieve, but two cars come close to your requirements, the Volkswagen Taigun GT 1.5 turbo and the Skoda Kushaq 1.5 TSi.
Both use the same engine, and their performance is on par with the Hyundai Creta 1.5 turbo, which already offers strong performance. The advantage of the VW and Skoda engines is cylinder deactivation, which helps significantly on the highway.
When the engine is under low load, it can shut down two of the four cylinders to save fuel and improve efficiency. Both cars are well-equipped, too. We would suggest waiting for the facelift versions, which are expected very soon.
I’m really confused about choosing between the Virtus GT-Line (Carbon Steel Grey matte) and a mid-size SUV like the Creta.
Your usage should determine which car suits you best. The Volkswagen Virtus, being a sedan, is one for keen drivers as it's got punchy turbo petrol engines and a sorted ride and handling balance.
A midsize SUV like the Hyundai Creta, on the other hand, will be better for the family-oriented as it has a more spacious and practical cabin.
Currently, I am using Swift and looking for a new SUV. My regular commuting distance is 1000 km per month, which includes highway and rural roads. Kindly advise me whether the Creta or the Seltos is suitable for me.
The Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos are mechanically identical, so your choice should boil down to which SUV's exterior and interior you prefer and your proximity to the brand's touchpoints.
It's worth noting, however, that the Seltos gets a heads-up display, which the Creta doesn't, while the Creta gets a 'boss mode' for the front passenger seat, which the Seltos misses out on.
My average monthly commute is 1,200 km across highways and rural roads, and I’m torn between buying a Victoris or a Creta. Please advise.
Go for the Maruti Suzuki Victoris, which will not only be more fuel efficient than the Hyundai Creta, but it also has the nicer-tuned, more absorbent suspension, making it more suited to drive over bad roads. The Creta is a touch more spacious and will be more comfortable if you travel with 5 adults regularly. If not, the Victoris seems to fit your needs better.
I want to replace my car after 17 years. My usage is mainly city driving with occasional long trips. We are a small family of four, and my two sons will soon be abroad. I work as a GM in a government organisation and will retire in two years. Since this will be a second car, I am looking for a mid-size SUV within a budget of ₹20 lakh. Please advise.
The Hyundai Creta is a good all-rounder mid-size SUV; it offers multiple powertrains across petrol, diesel and electric variants. Assuming your running is not very high, you can opt for the petrol 1.5-litre naturally aspirated engine along with the CVT automatic gearbox, given that your driving is mostly in the city. With your Rs 20 lakh budget, you will get the Hyundai Creta S(O) variant, which is decently equipped too.
Hi. My budget is 20L. I can stretch till 25L if needed. I'm looking for a 5-seater SUV. I'm currently driving a petrol manual Elite i20. I don't want EV. I don't drive much, but we occasionally go outstation. My main requirements are Tech, performance, low maintenance, and comfort. Plz suggest some options. Also, will getting a car with a sunroof pose any problems in the future?
Hi Autocar team, I enjoy driving but consider myself practical. I’m trying to decide whether to get the Creta iVT or the DCT. Most of my driving is in Bangalore city. I plan to keep my car for a long time, and my father will also be driving it. Will the DCT remain reliable even after the warranty expires? Or should I choose the safer option like the iVT? I expect around 10 km/l in city traffic.
Since the majority of your driving is in the city, the Hyundai Creta IVT would be a better choice.
Yes, it is low on power, but there is enough grunt to make quick gaps in the city and overtakes on the highway. It does not feel underpowered.
The advantage is the IVT gearbox, which is smoother than the DCT in the city and will make light work of driving in a traffic-heavy city like Bangalore. Also, since it is a lesser-powered version and it does not get a turbo, it is also a bit more efficient in the city.
