Hyundai Creta Electric Launched at Bharat Mobility Expo 2025

The electric mid-size SUV will go up against the likes of the new Maruti e Vitara, Mahindra BE 6, Tata Curvv EV and more

The Hyundai Creta Electric has finally been launched at the ongoing Bharat Mobility Expo 2025. Note that Creta is the most successful mid-size SUV in the country in its ICE version. Aiming to leverage its popularity, the Korean auto giant has launched the electric iteration with almost a similar exterior and interior styling. In essence, the Creta electric simply swaps the IC engine with an electric mill. Having said that, Hyundai has made sure to have enough exterior distinctions and new-age in-cabin amenities to set the two apart. Let us glance at the details here.
