Hyundai Creta [2020-2023] User Reviews

Hyundai is started cheating people they stopped E Variant and they are forcing people to buy top-end model. They are creating artificial demand and looting people. As an Indian we need to think now, we should not allow another country cheater to sit on our head. Just consider TATA vehicles if not Maruti. Don't Think that KIA is a separate company(It is part of Cheater-Hyundai).

Car is superb.Old model is more good than new solid car with amazing pick up and also you can control in minimum time, codriver also feel safe at 150 km per hour speed, cons of this car is nothing

Its always feel good when buying Creta - not a single issue i found in this car. Comfort is good compact car with good internal space & boot space as well. Great features which u can look in any car. Good for off road drive as well

So, talking about the most value for money SUV......of-course I'm talking about the Hyundai Creta 1.4 diesel. I'm a proud owner of Hyundai Creta since July 2017. In this review, I'll share all the details of my ownership experience from deciding which car to buy to the after-sales experience at the dealership. When I decided that I want a new car I was sure that I'll get an SUV this time & I had a budget of 11 Lakh rupees. I had so many option & filtered they down to 3 i.e. Ford Ecosport Titanium diesel, Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza ZDI & finally Hyundai Creta E-Plus diesel. Considering the use of the car I was pretty sure I want a commodious diesel vehicle with good mileage & low-maintenance cost. Since my need was for low maintenance I scraped off the Ecosport as my option due to overly expensive service cost & spare parts. After taking a visit to Hyundai & Maruti dealerships I decided to get the Creta because of better build quality, ample space & I got almost all the features I needed. My experience at the dealership was very pleasant, I got my car within a week & I got a cash discount worth 15k & got free floor mats, mudguards & boot floor mat. The car cost me 10.90 lakhs on-road in Haryana & I still had to spend some money on the car to get some missing features about which I'll discuss later. Till the date, I have driven my Creta 75000 kilometres & that was the main reason I wanted good mileage & my car is mostly driven on highways because of business trips. Now talking about the exterior, I accept that it is a subjective topic but my opinion is that Creta's exterior is not that adventurous but rather a boxy design which gives it the SUVish stans. Moving to the front of the car it has a matte finished grill in this model whereas upper models get a chrome one also it gets normal halogen lamps rather than the projector set up in the upper models & also there are no fog lamps in this model. Now I'll share the aftermarket stuff I got for the front of my car. I got the projector unit, front chrome grill & the fog lamps for 40k which makes the base model look as good as the top model. Talking about the sides it is confidence-inspiring & has pretty bold looks, at last, the rear of the car even has a spoiler on the boot in the base model as well, being the base model there are no alloy wheels Hyundai offers steel rims with wheel caps which don't look bad & the tyre size is also good it's a 205/65 R16 wheel & the door handles & ORVMs are also body coloured with indicators also being integrated into ORVMs. Moving in the interior Hyundai gives 2 flip keys with boot opening function on the key as well. When you enter & sit in the car first thing you'll notice is how comfortable the seats are & the beige-coloured strip flowing through the dashboard brings a contrast to the cabin. The driver side door has controls for all the 4 power windows, locking & unlocking the doors & for the electronically adjustable side ORVMs which is a good touch in the basic model as even the Kia Seltos doesn't get this feature. The instrument cluster is well lit up with all required information with a 3 inch MID as well. The steering wheel of the car is very light for city driving & weighs up well on cruising speeds, steering can be adjusted for rake but not for reach also it gets only two buttons on the steering wheel to operate the MID no controls for the infotainment system nevertheless I got a 10-inch android stereo, reverse parking camera & steering mounted audio controls installed just for 15k & that too without any wire cutting so warranty also wasn't voided. Examining the storage spaces in the car OMG it is so spacious, all 4 doors can accommodate 1-litre water bottles & front doors have extra storage for map pockets There are 2 cupholders in the centre of the dashboard & space above the gear-knob to keep your phone, being the base model we still get a front centre armrest with storage. The boot is accommodative & if you fold down the seat huge amount of stuff can be loaded in it. The rear seats are comfortable & 3 people fit in at ease because of the flat floorboard, just there is no rear seat armrest & the headrests are integrated & non-adjustable. It gets manual AC controls with rear AC vents, the AC chills car in no time & the rear AC vents are a gem for the base model. The car is powered by a 1.4-litre diesel engine which apparently is shared with the Hyundai i-20 & is in the same stage of tune as well i.e. 89 BHP & 220nm of torque. I feel it is a bit underpowered for a car of this weight but this con brings a huge plus point for this car & i.e. very impressive mileage, the car easily churns out a fuel economy of 16-17 kmpl in city driving & 19-20 kmpl on highways which is really impressive for a car of this size. Creta gets a 6-speed gearbox & it is is not at all heavy & it is really sleek shifting. All these features, mileage & the value for money nature of this vehicle sounds majestic but now I have purchased the car & its time to take a glance at the maintenance cost & after-sales support of Hyundai. Till the date, my car has not faced any major issue where any part needs to be replaced & the service cost of this vehicle is pretty reasonable being a diesel motor, the service cost is 6500 rupees including taxes & labour also the dealership treats its customers well. I'll conclude my review by mentioning the pros & cons after that I'll share my final verdict, talking through the pros 1) value for money factor of this vehicle is really high 2) impressive mileage 3) low maintenance cost 4) magnificent AC with rear AC vents 5) highly commodious & practical cons 1) a bit underpowered 2) no centre seat armrest for rear seats 3) driver seat isn't height-adjustable in this model. I'll conclude my review by saying that it was one of my most monetary worth purchase & the money spent on aftermarket stuff makes the car a perfect bargain & I would recommend this car who wants a spacious car with great mileage.

Very nice comfortable vehicle. Tyre radius is very controlling in road jerking. Deeper light is large distance cover, and speed control is very nice. So this is admirable 4 wheeler car.

The driving experience was lovely. But i am very disappointed by the showrooms when i planned to buy it. They say booking is closed and you may buy other cars. Or if you will extra money then they can try. So requesting to Creta, please look into these serious issues.

It is a good car. My driving experience is very good. Its looks very good and superb ever like other suv performance is good. Service and maintenance is good enough. No Pros and cons.

I have booked Creta E diesel in Dec 2020 but company has not delivered my vehicle till date that is may 2021 now showroom representative saying it may take upto 3 months more .Terrible experience with Hyundai

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.
