The new Creta will have some major changes in its design too. As reported earlier, Hyundai Creta facelift version for India will be slightly different from the ones currently sold in global markets. For India, Hyundai is expected to give Creta the look that is more similar to its Palisade SUV than the new generation Tucson. This holds particularly true for the front face which will come with vertical LED light setup along with parametric grille. At the rear too, Hyundai will update the LED taillights with a new design with sequential turn indicators. It is also expected to get a LED light bar like most other SUVs. The spy shots also show that the new Creta SUV will come with redesigned 17-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels.
Under the hood, Hyundai is likely to offer the new Creta SUV with at least three powertrain options. These include a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine, a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol unit and a 1.5-litre diesel engine. Expect these units to come mated with multiple transmission options which will include a six-speed manual, six-speed automatic and a 7-speed DCT for the turbo unit.
