Hey brother,
Hope all’s good at your side. You know, these days almost everyone in town talks about the Hyundai Creta. I’ve seen it running on our roads quite often, and honestly, it does catch the eye. I spent some time checking it out properly, and I’ll tell you what I really feel — simple words, nothing fancy.
How It Feels to Drive
So friend, when I first drove the Creta, I didn’t expect it to be that smooth. The steering was light, the gear changed clean, and the car moved so easily even in narrow lanes. It doesn’t feel heavy or bulky like big SUVs do.
The car comes with three engines — petrol, diesel, and turbo-petrol. The diesel one feels strong; you tap the pedal and it just goes. Petrol is quieter, better for regular town rides.
Do you know it’s very special because you get that balance — good power and still decent mileage. Even if you drive long routes, it doesn’t make you tired.
I once drove it from our town to Purnea — about a couple of hours — and I barely noticed the time. That’s how relaxed it felt.
Looks and Design
Brother, looks matter to all of us, right? The Creta surely looks smart. The front grille is big and bold, headlights sharp, and the body lines clean. It has that confident look but not overdone.
Inside, it feels premium — neat dashboard, solid doors, comfy seats. Everything fits properly. When you sit inside, you get that “big-car” feeling.
Colours make it even more fun — Atlas White, Abyss Black, Titan Grey, Fiery Red, Denim Blue, and Ranger Khaki. There are dual-tone options too. Personally, I liked White with Black roof — classy and easy to maintain.
Space and Comfort
So friend, the main thing — space. The Creta has a roomy cabin. The front seats are wide, and the back seat can easily take three adults. Even tall people won’t complain.
Boot space is good enough for luggage, a stroller, or even a couple of big travel bags. Suspension is soft; bumps and potholes don’t shake you much.
Last month my uncle took his Creta to Bhagalpur with family — he told me, “Beta, this car doesn’t make you tired even after hours.” That sums it up.
Features and Feel
Here’s the part that impressed me most. Hyundai gives you a bunch of features that make daily driving easier.
- Big touchscreen for music and maps
- Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
- Rear camera with sensors
- Ventilated seats (super useful in summer)
- Sunroof in higher variants
- Wireless charger, USB ports, and a nice digital display
- Air purifier, ambient lights, and solid safety setup with multiple airbags
Do you know it’s very special because even after having so many features, it still feels easy to use? Nothing confusing — all buttons where you expect them.
I liked how it gives that premium feel without trying too hard.
Mileage and Cost
Now let’s be real — mileage always matters.
The diesel Creta gives around 18–20 km/l on highway, and about 14–16 km/l in mixed driving. Petrol version gives around 12–15 km/l depending on your style.
I know someone who owns the diesel automatic; he says he easily gets 16–17 km/l even with AC on full time. That’s pretty fair.
Maintenance is reasonable too. Hyundai’s service is available in almost every town, and parts don’t cost crazy money. If you do regular servicing, it runs smoothly for years.
Price in Our Town
Now brother, the important bit — the money.
Here in our town, the on-road price starts close to ₹12 lakh for the base petrol model and goes up to about ₹22 lakh for the top version.
If you want my honest opinion, the mid variant makes the most sense — has almost all the features you’d want, and you save a couple of lakhs compared to the top one.
A friend bought the SX diesel for around ₹17 lakh on-road last year. He says it’s worth every rupee.
Real-Life Story
Let me share something small. My cousin drives to Patna every weekend. He bought the Creta diesel a year ago. One day, on his return, he said, “You know, I don’t feel tired even after 5 hours of driving.” That’s when I realised how comfortable this car truly is.
His dad, who’s not really into cars, said, “This one feels steady even on rough patches.” So yeah — when the elders approve, you know it’s doing something right.
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Smooth and reliable engines
- Comfortable seats and ride quality
- Big boot and spacious cabin
- Premium looks and solid build
- Great feature list
- Easy to drive in city
Cons:
- Top trims are expensive
- Petrol engine mileage could be better
- No 4-wheel drive option
But honestly, the good points easily beat the small downsides.
Should You Go for It?
Brother, if your budget is between ₹12 lakh and ₹20 lakh, I’d say go and test-drive the Hyundai Creta. You’ll see what I mean.
It’s not just about looks — it’s about how complete the car feels. You can take it for office runs, long highway drives, or family trips. It fits everywhere.
If you drive more inside the city, the petrol version is fine. If you do longer trips or travel outside often, diesel is the better pick.
So friend, yes — the Creta is worth your money.
