The Creta will be available in six trim levels — Base, S, S+, SX, SX+ and the top-spec SX (O).
The Base variant gets standard features like rear AC vents, remote locking, a 12V power outlet, a 4-speaker audio system and ABS. Meanwhile, the feature-loaded SX(O) variant comes with premium features like six airbags, leather upholstery, keyless entry and go, a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system and 17-inch alloy wheels.
Speaking at the launch today in New Delhi, B S Seo, managing director and CEO, Hyundai Motor India, said: “The Creta is a revolutionary product – a true expression of the ‘New Age Hyundai’. We are confident the Creta will strengthen Hyundai’s position in India.”
