India’s second largest car manufacturer Hyundai had earlier unveiled their next-generation Creta SUV at the auto expo. Hyundai Creta was unveiled at the expo in the presence of famous bollywood actor and brand ambassador for Hyundai Shahrukh Khan. He already owns a couple of Hyundai Creta’s from current generation and even uses it on a regular basis. In an interaction with the media after the launch he had discussed some of things that he liked about the all new Hyundai Creta.

Shahrukh Khan has been the brand ambassador for Hyundai for over 20 years and in an interview to the Express Drives, he talks about the all-new Creta and shares the things that he liked about the new car. Hyundai had just unveiled the car and it is not known how the interior of the new Creta looks like. But from the outside, the factor that attracted SRK (Shahrukh Khan) are those clean lines that are not too much cluttered. He even appreciated the look of the car and said that it looks better than the current versions. The black and silver inserts on the outside also make it look nice. Shahrukh Khan also revealed that he liked the car so much that he would be buying the new Creta as soon as it is launched in the market.

Hyundai Creta unveiled at the expo is based on a new platform and looks a lot like the ix25 SUV that Hyundai had launched in the Chinese market. In comparison to the outgoing version, the new Creta looks big and premium. Like any other modern day car SUV, new Creta also has headlamp placed on the bumper and it also gets a boomerang shaped split LED DRL. The grille is wide and gets silver inserts with chrome outlines and a faux skid plate at the bottom.

On the side profile, it gets a design similar to the outgoing model but with a floating roof design and new diamond cut alloy wheels. At the rear things change again as it has a new design to the rear with all LED elements. The faux skid plate and the spoiler all add up to the premium, aggressive and futuristic. Even though Hyundai has not unveiled the interiors, it is safe to expect a feature loaded cabin with features like panoramic sunroof, wireless phone charging and so on. Coming to the engine options, the all-new Creta is likely to get a 1.5 litre petrol and diesel engine and might also get a 1.4 litre turbo petrol unit like the one seen in Kia Seltos. Hyundai is likely to launch the all-new Creta on 17th of March 2020.
