Hyundai Creta Gets Updated Features List Across All Trims
Following a price hike last month, Hyundai is set to soon update the equipment list of the Creta compact SUV. This will see the addition of new features on certain trims along with some deletions as the carmaker continues to improve Creta's appeal based on customer feedback and market trends. Interestingly, the base-spec E trim is the only trim to witness feature deletion, while all other trims see the addition of new features. This, however, does not come at the cost of yet another price hike.
Hyundai Creta Features List - What's The Update?
Top-spec SX and SX(O) trims of the Creta are set to receive a major update to their infotainment system with the addition of over-the-air updates and new voice command functions. You can perform functions such as operating the power windows, retrieve contact information or search for points of interest using voice commands. Hyundai will also be providing a new smart key with a remote engine start (for both manual and automatic variants) with the SX and SX(O) trims. There will also be a soft paint finish for the dashboard. Hyundai has also used this opportunity to introduce new voice greetings when you start your car, depending on the time of the day. Most of them even politely remind you to wear the seat belt.
Moving 0n to the EX and S trims, these mid-spec trims see the addition of wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay feature. This is a very convenient addition as it completely eliminates the hassle of handling wires. Meanwhile, the base-spec E trim sees the deletion of quite some important features that include electrically adjustable wing mirrors, luggage lamp in the boot and passenger seat-back pocket. Also, the ORVM turn indicator has now been relocated to the front fender on the base E trim. Here's a detailed look at the current price list of the Hyundai Creta after it was recently revised in April 2021.
