The much-awaited new Hyundai Creta facelift reaches dealerships. The videos showcasing the mid-size SUV in the real world are out. This upcoming mid-cycle facelift for the nation’s most popular compact SUV is scheduled for its reveal on January 16. It’s worth noting that the Creta facelift designed for the Indian market deviates from the globally-inspired Tucson look. Instead, it features a sturdier front fascia, aligning with the carmaker’s ‘Sensuous Sportiness’ theme. In fact, it is a slightly more premium and large version of the Venue and Exter from the front. Let us take a look at the details of the new Creta.

Hyundai Creta Facelift Reaches Dealerships
This video comes from Harsh VLOGS on YouTube. It captures the vlogger arriving at a Hyundai dealership to showcase the SUV in real life. Up front, there is a slim LED light bar that converges into stylized LED DRLs flanking both sides. Additionally, the front facade showcases an expansive grille adorned with dark chrome and quad-LED headlamps on either side. This updated model also boasts robust skid plates and a sporty bumper. On the sides, it flaunts adventurous side skirtings and a fresh set of alloy wheels. Candidly, the side profile bears a striking resemblance to the current model. Moving to the rear, a connected LED taillamp unit with a distinctive design and a sturdy skid plate catch the eye. Furthermore, there’s a high-mount stop lamp, shark fin antenna, and a roof-mounted spoiler equipped with roof rails.
