An incredible accomplishment by the Korean manufacturer, Hyundai's Creta SUV has surged past a significant milestone, registering over 100,000 bookings within a mere three months since its debut in January 2024.
The Creta, a mid-size SUV, has consistently dominated the charts in sales, bookings, and record-breaking achievements. Notably, it accomplished 50,000 and 80,000 bookings in February and March 2024, respectively, underscoring its unwavering popularity among consumers. In a comparative context, its closest competitor, the Kia Seltos, took six months to achieve a similar milestone.
Priced competitively with a starting point of Rs. 11 lakh (ex-showroom), the Creta SUV offers versatility with seven variants: E, EX, S, S(O), SX, SX Tech, and SX(O), available in both petrol and diesel engine options. Recently, the model witnessed its first-ever price adjustment, with an increase of up to Rs. 10,800.
Tarun Garg, COO of Hyundai Motor India Ltd., expressed his delight, stating that the response to the recently launched new Hyundai Creta has also been overwhelming, with over one lakh bookings in a span of just three months since the launch in January 2024. It is interesting to note that sunroof and connected car variants are contributing 71 percent and 52 percent, respectively, to the overall bookings, a testimony to the changing aspirations of young Indian customers.
In parallel development, Hyundai is gearing up to introduce an all-electric version of the Creta SUV in the Indian market. Spotted undergoing testing, the electric model is anticipated to debut by late 2024, aligning with the growing trend towards eco-friendly mobility solutions.
The impressive reception and continuous innovation surrounding the Hyundai Creta underscore its status as a frontrunner in the competitive SUV segment, reflecting evolving consumer preferences and Hyundai's commitment to delivering cutting-edge automotive experiences.
