King of the highway, queen of the city | Creta E Diesel 2021

Creta E Diesel, one of the most sought after and value for money car in the mid-size SUV segment, will surely make you wait once you book at it, but it's totally worth the wait (was approximately 5 months in my case) Let's start with the cons(Since they are fewer): 1) Cost cutting measures in the E variant have deprived the car of a few essential features like: A) Boot Light B) Electronically Adjustable Side Mirrors C) Cooled Glove Box D) TPMS(Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) 2) Steering wheel not adjustable for reach(only height adjustable) 3) Absence of adjustable headrest in the rear row 4) Projector headlamps could have a better and refined focus/throw. 5) Not actually meant for intense or severe off-roading, since the vehicle is a front wheel drive, it has a tendency to get stuck easily in terrain not meant for it. On the brighter side, pros: 1) Excellent fuel economy (14-17KMPL City, 18-21KMPL Highways) 2) Awesome high speed performance, 6th gear allows for smooth overtakes (Speed range from 65 and above) 3) Largest boot space in the segment 4) Hidden features like Guide me home headlamps even in E variant, rear ac vents, driver information system with icy road warning, day time running lights etc. 5) 50 L fuel tank allowing approx. range of 900+ km on full tank 6) ABS, Dual Airbags, D cut ergonomic design of steering wheel, speed sensing door locks, impact sensing unlock etc for enhanced safety 7) Plastics, finish and upholstery doesn't feel cheap if not premium, feels just right at the price point.(A personal opinion though) 8) Low to no vibrations or sounds inside the cabin, a highly refined and insulated engine bay is being offered, you won't even realize that you're actually driving a diesel if you weren't told so.(Obviously the punch in driving would tell that, but not the vibrations and sound) The overall driving experience of Creta is full of confidence and fun, with the 1.5L diesel engine, you never feel slow on the highway or lagging in the city for pickup. Service from Hyundai is effortless with the availability of free home pick-up and drop.
