Hyundai has officially launched the Hyundai Creta Facelift. In other countries, the facelifted Hyundai Creta has a front end that looks like the Tucson’s, complete with parametric jewel LED lighting. On the other hand, the new Creta for India has a boxier grille and new LED daytime running lights that run the length of the hood and have reversed L-shaped lighting elements. Both have vertically positioned LED headlights that look the same. However, the India-spec Creta’s housing and front lip have a look bolder.

Interior
In other countries, the compact SUV still has the same setup on the dashboard as the previous model, with a 7-inch TFT screen for the instrument cluster. On the other hand, the India-spec Creta has two 10.25-inch screens built-in, one for entertainment and one for the driver. The updated dashboard, a new, more upscale climate control panel on the lower central console design between the seats is the same in both models. In different areas, the cabins are either all black or have a two-tone look with white seats.
Powertrain
One of the distinguishing features of the Hyundai Creta is the variety of engines it offers. It is only available in some markets with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated gasoline engine. However, buyers can choose between a 1-liter turbo-petrol engine in other markets and a 2-liter naturally aspirated gasoline engine. In contrast, the Indian version of the Creta offers three distinct 1.5-liter engine options: a naturally aspirated version, a turbocharged variant, and a diesel engine.
Rear Profile
Hyundai changed the rear profile of the Creta for India, It now has linked LED tail lights that match the look of the new LED daytime running lights. It also has a big silver skid plate that stands out on the new bumper. On the other hand, there has been a slight change in other markets compared to the model before the facelift in the back end.
