The all-new 2020 Hyundai Creta will launch on March 17 and will share its platform and engine option with the hot-selling Kia Seltos, In all, it will have 14 variants and 8 colour options
The next-gen 2020 Hyundai Creta is only days away from its launch and should become one of the most important products for the carmaker this year. As is already quite well known, it will be sold with the same engine options as the Kia Seltos. Now, GaadiWaadi Dot Com has learnt that the new model will be available in a total of 14 variants and 8 colour options. It may be noted here that bookings for the new SUV have been underway for a token amount of Rs 25,000.
The 2020 Hyundai Creta will be available in 5 trims – E, EX, S, SX and SX(O). For the petrol engine variant, the Creta will be available with 1.5 naturally aspirated engine with manual transmission in the EX and S variants, while it will be sold with 1.5-litre manual and automatic options along with 1.4-litre turbo-petrol engine with the automatic option in the SX trim. The SX(O) trim will be available only with 1.5-litre-automatic and 1.4-litre-automatic combo.
For the diesel variants, which are powered by the 1.5-litre diesel motor, the E, EX and S grades are available only with a manual transmission. The SX and SX(O) options, however, will be available with both manual and automatic options. This will lead to a total of 14 variants in which the new model will be sold.
Other than the trim distribution, we have also got to know about the colour options in which the new car will be sold. The paint options for the new SUV include 8 choices, viz. Polar White, Typhoon Silver, Phantom Black, Lava Orange, Titan Grey, Deep Forest, Galaxy Blue and Red Mulberry Out of these, Deep Forest will be available only in the Turbo variants, while the Galaxy Blue and Red Mulberry options are new additions to the colour palette previously available on the SUV.
Like we have already said before, the 2020 Hyundai Creta will be based on the same platform as the Kia Seltos. Even the engine options will be the same and will include – 1.5-litre naturally-aspirated petrol, 1.5-litre turbocharged diesel and 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol. The base petrol motor will output 115 PS and 144 Nm, while the diesel motor will offer 115 PS and 250 Nm. The turbo-petrol option will offer 140 PS and 242 Nm.
The 2020 Hyundai Creta looks all set to build on the success achieved by the outgoing model. It will rival not just the Kia Seltos but even models like the MG Hector, Tata Harrier and Mahindra XUV500. Prices are likely to keep a tad below those of the Seltos, which, for reference, is sold in the Rs 9.89 – 17.34 Lakh range.
