2020 Hyundai Creta Vs Kia Seltos – SX(O) Vs GTX+ Comparison – Engine Options / Transmission Options / Features / Variant Wise Prices
The new Hyundai Creta was launched in India this month, just before the coronavirus outbreak began in India. The deliveries were scheduled to commence this week but now stand delayed till April 15. The bookings are ongoing as of now, only on their website.
The new Creta is priced from Rs 9.99 Lakhs up to Rs 17.20 Lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi). Its top-end variant is just Rs 14,000 cheaper than its prime rival, Kia Seltos. That brings us in great confusion as both of them compete fiercely in terms of features.
Both get the same three engines will slightly different power figures. Both are powered by a 1.5 Litre petrol engine, 1.5 Litre diesel engine and a 1.4 Litre turbo petrol unit. The big difference is that Seltos offers a 6-speed manual gearbox and a 7-speed DCT along with the turbo unit whereas Creta only offers the DCT unit.

Still a tough choice. Creta gets a couple of features more than Seltos and that’s the other way around as well. In terms of servicing, Hyundai is definitely bigger because Kia is a new brand. With time, many more service centres of Kia will be added across Tier-I and Tier-II cities.
