69 Percent Cars Sold by Hyundai in FY 24-25 Were SUVs, Creta Remains a Major Driving Factor: Report

The Hyundai Creta is celebrated for its impressive road presence, premium interiors, and a feature-packed cabin. It offers multiple powertrain options, including petrol and diesel engines, catering to diverse customer preferences. Additionally, its competitive pricing and extensive variant options enhance its appeal, making it a benchmark for SUVs in its segment.

The introduction of the Creta Electric has significantly boosted Hyundai's sales, particularly in the EV segment. It was launched at the Auto Expo 2025, contributing to a notable increase in overall sales figures. This move aligns with Hyundai's strategy to enhance its electric vehicle portfolio and meet the growing demand for sustainable mobility solutions in India.

The Hyundai Creta offers three engine options: a 1.5L turbocharged petrol engine producing 157.57 bhp and 253 Nm of torque, a 1.5L diesel engine with outputs of 113.98 bhp and 250 Nm of torque, and a 1.5L naturally aspirated petrol engine generating 113.1 bhp and 143.8 Nm of torque. These options provide flexibility for different driving preferences.

The Hyundai Creta stands out in the SUV segment due to its combination of features, brand reputation, and customer loyalty. It competes with models like the Tata Harrier, MG ZS EV, and Mahindra XUV700, but its consistent sales figures and market presence, including being the best-selling SUV for multiple months, highlight its strong position in the market.

Sunroof options have become a key feature in Hyundai's sales strategy, appealing to modern Indian consumers seeking premium experiences in their vehicles. With over 1.1 million sunroof-equipped vehicles sold in the past five years, and 52% of cars sold in 2024 featuring this option, it indicates a shift towards more luxurious features in mainstream segments.
