I would put off other discretionary purchases to invest in the models with extra safety ,order less pizza😑. I am telling you, if you compromise now, you will surely have that gnawing back of your mind for 1.5 lac, when you have already spent over 15-16 big ones. Besides you get more features overall. I have been there myself( regret not purchasing an AWD Duster for 1.5 lac extra). I would go for the City if ground clearance isnt a big issue. Its CVT is one of the better ones out there. If its DCT or diesel AT, I’d go with the Creta. |

| ![]() As per a post on the Creta Owners FB Group, A member in Banglore replaced the silver alloy wheels with diamond-cut ones for Rs 22,000 after buyback of silver alloys from the dealership itself. So, if anyone is looking to replace the alloys in SX or turbo variant it might help you. |

http://m.howsafeisyourcar.com.au/Curtain-Airbags/ We know from basic physics that vehicles with higher centre of gravity are more prone to roll-over. So you actually need the side curtain airbags much more in the Creta than you do in the City. So by buying the Creta and not going for side curtain airbags, it is a double-whammy. Please consider this aspect in your decision. This is the one reason I am finding it hard to replace my Ecosport Titanium (O) TDCI even after 7 years. There are very few options of compact or mid-size SUVs with decent power, good drivability and having 6 airbags like my Ecosport has, under Rs. 20 lakhs.

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() My detailed, impartial and comprehensive initial ownership report of the Creta 1.5L IVT is now live:- https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/test-...vt-review.html (Phoenix: Rising back from the ashes - Our 2020 Hyundai Creta SX IVT Review) Hope it is helpful for those sitting on the fence and are evaluating the Creta with other current options as a future purchase. |

| ![]() 2020 Hyundai Creta has recorded over 55,000 bookings since its launch in March and it is the diesel models that are more preferred by buyers. Diesel models form 60% of total bookings. https://www.motorbeam.com/2020-hyund...n-high-demand/ |

| ![]() ![]() Pardon my language, but I think there cannot be a bigger slap from general public on the faces of MSIL management than this. This, in-spite of them having a superb 1.5L diesel engine which is taking forever to convert to BS6. If not for the pandemic, Hyundai + Kia combo would have taken a huge chunk of market share from MSIL by now. Pandemic or not, Venue + Sonet is going to take Brezza to cleaners! |

| ![]() I was trying to use Hyundai 'Click to Buy' for checking out Creta 2020. I was interested in Diesel SX(0) AT and I selected the same. Strangely, in 'Polar white' and 'Phantom Black' shades, I get option to select either of Moss Grey or Obsidian Black interiors. I checked with the Dealership Sales associate, but he confirmed that black interiors are only available with 1.4 Petrol model. I got a call from 'Click to Buy' website sales associate and they confirmed that if its shown in website, it is available and I can place the order directly in the website and they will deliver the specification and interiors as mentioned in the site. Has Hyundai started providing black interiors for all Creta engine options? If not, this is a big mistake in their click to buy program and an even bigger one from their online sales associate. I am able to select the black interiors for even base diesel and 1.5 petrol models. |

And when I tried the non Turbo models to get the Black interiors, the Showroom confirmed it's not possible. They even went on to say that the website is misleading but that I could go ahead and book the vehicle on the site and they'd proceed from there (shrugs) I ended up booking the Turbo Deep Forest with the Black interiors, expecting delivery next week! | |

| ![]() A lot of us, including myself have been critical of the 2020 Cretas design, and for sure the design lacks the cohesiveness that the earlier Creta or even the Seltos has. But when I did see the car in person, like most folks have already commented here, it doesnt look as bad from certain angles. Front profile looks very good, the DRLs give it a very futuristic look, especially in dark colours like Black, and the rear profile too looks good from a distance, especially with the tail lights on. So I think Hyundai messed up with the overall design language, but still got some things right and customers are lapping it up for that reason. Im hoping that this new Creta, Aura are the last of such designs and Hopefully the new design language being showcased in the 2021 Elantra and Tucson are the future cues. |

It sure looks like a VFM buy and now Hyundai are hinting at cash discounts of around 10K. My feeling is this is a loss leader for Hyundai and it is likely to undergo a price revision pretty soon, just like this happened with the Seltos. I am toying with booking one in the Galaxy Blue color, but have a lot of unanswered questions due to the absence of a proper team bhp review yet. | |

| ![]() After a long wait of over 2 months since booking the Creta SX petrol MT arrives home. While the experience at the dealership was anything but stellar, the frustrating time period is now over. It will be sharing the garage with the 8 year old dzire VDi now. I will pen down the initial ownership experience with the car soon. |
