Latest Information on Hyundai Creta
The subcompact crossover SUV has been in production since 2014. It has been a good seller overseas and was brought to South Africa in 2016. It is the smallest SUV in Hyundai’s range. With a higher ground clearance than the Tucson, by 18mm, it does well on gravel. The Creta is not equipped with traction or stability control but it does, however, have cornering headlights. Two engines are available, both of a 1.6-litre capacity, with one petrol and one diesel engine. The petrol engine can be paired with either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic gearbox. The diesel engine is paired with a six-speed automatic gearbox.
