What’s new in the Creta ‘King’ range

Marking 10 years of Creta in India, Hyundai has introduced a celebratory ‘King’ line with three editions—King, King Limited Edition, and King Knight. These add fresh styling touches and feature upgrades aimed at a more premium experience, with the line starting at ₹17.88 lakh (ex-showroom). Customer bookings are open across dealerships and online.

Why it matters

Creta already leads the midsize-SUV conversation on space, features and brand trust. The ‘King’ line widens the ladder of choices for buyers who want a showroom-fresh look without stepping up to a different model.

Creta Electric: more choice, larger batteries

Hyundai has expanded the Creta Electric portfolio with three new variants, offering 42 kWh and 51.4 kWh battery options. The updated line now starts around ₹18.02 lakh (ex-showroom), bringing a lower entry point and broader range coverage. Expect minor feature re-balancing and fresh colours with this update.

Creta N Line: sportier alternative

For buyers leaning performance and style, the Creta N Line continues with its 1.5-litre turbo-petrol and sharper chassis/visual tuning. Prices span ₹16.93–₹20.8 lakh (ex-showroom) depending on variant and transmission (MT/DCT).

The bigger picture (sales & pricing)

Hyundai posted 60,501 total sales in August 2025, retaining the No. 2 spot in India—helped by core models such as Creta, Venue and i20. With the festive cycle near and a proposed GST reduction in effect from Sept 22, effective on-road prices for models like Creta could soften, improving value for buyers.
