New Information Viewed
The Creta EV test mule is remarkably similar to its internal combustion engine (ICE) counterpart, although being extensively disguised. These alloy wheels, which are unique from the standard Creta’s and have an EV-specific aerodynamic shape, are what distinguish this test mule as an electric vehicle.
The spy photo shows that the Creta EV will have the same redesigned dashboard as the standard Creta, complete with two 10.25-inch digital screens—one for infotainment and the other for the driver’s display. The electric SUV may also have ventilated front seats, wireless phone charging, a panoramic sunroof, and dual-zone air conditioning.
Six airbags, a 360-degree camera, electronic stability control, a tire pressure monitoring system, and advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS) features like lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control, and automated emergency braking are probably included in the safety package.
Electric Powertrain Expectations
Even though there are currently few facts available regarding the Creta EV’s electric motor and battery pack, we anticipate seeing the vehicle available with a stated range of more than 400 kilometers.
Expected Launch & Price
In India, Hyundai may introduce the Creta EV as early as 2025. Pricing is anticipated to start at Rs 20 lakh (ex-showroom). It will be a more expensive option than the Mahindra XUV400 EV and Tata Nexon EV, but it will directly compete with the MG ZS EV and the Tata Curvv EV.
