This has to be the first walkaround tour of the top-end variant of the Hyundai Creta facelift prior to the launch. It’s worth noting that the updated Creta, designed specifically for India, looks different from the Tucson, which has a global design. The Creta has a strong front look that fits in with the carmaker’s ‘Sensuous Sportiness’ style. Essentially, it’s like a fancier and roomier version of the Venue and Exter when you look at the front. Now, let’s take a closer look at the details of the new Creta in the flesh.
