Hyundai unveils Creta Sport
South American-spec small SUV gets gloss-black exterior finish and all-back interior; engine options remain the same.
Hyundai’s latest introduction for the Brazilian market is the Hyundai Creta Sport. Most of the styling tweaks on the Creta Sport are in the front, where the grille has been redesigned and, along with the skid plate, receives gloss black treatment, tying them well together. The Creta also features neat looking black outside rear view mirrors and new-fashion 17-inch alloy wheels. At the back, the Creta Sport also gets a gloss black skid plate at the rear along with a new rear spoiler. The roof bars and the shark fin antenna also receive the gloss black treatment, giving the SUV a good balance of highlights all over.
The Korean car manufacturer has not stopped there. The insides of the Hyundai Creta Sport are all-black too, with the seats and the headliner being blacked-out as well. The Creta Sport also comes with a 7.0-inch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Under the hood, the Creta Sport carries on unchanged and comes with the same engine/gearbox options that are available on the standard model sold in the Brazilian market.
The Creta Sport is expected to go on sale in Brazil in November. There is no news on whether Hyundai will launch this variant in India, but if they do, its distinctive looks will help the company move even more units of their successful small SUV.
