The premium Hyundai Creta SUV with N-line treatment is scheduled to go on sale in India on March 11. Bookings for the SUV have begun for a token of Rs 25,000 on both online and offline platforms. The automaker recently teased the vehicle, showcasing the exterior design in all its glory. With this, we can make some significant differences between the premium Creta N Line model and the standard version. If you are interested in purchasing the upcoming new edition of the Hyundai Creta, let’s go through its distinguishing features in more detail.
Hyundai Creta N Line vs Creta Facelift: Design
As already reported before, the premium Creta's front end receives a total makeover thanks to an updated bumper and a rectangular grille adorned with the N Line emblem. The bumper's aggressive look is further enhanced by the red inlays on its lower half. While the LED headlight placement and Connected LED DRL strip are the same as on the base model, the new Creta also has red inlays on the side skirtings. The most prominent distinction between the Creta N Line and the regular model is seen in the wheels. Even in its too-end edition, the Hyundai Creta's standard version sports smaller 17-inch alloy wheels. On the other hand, the Creta N Line has larger 18-inch alloy wheels with brake callipers painted red.
In comparison to the front, the modifications are minimal at the back. The new Creta N Line has a modified bumper, a sharper roof-integrated spoiler, dual-tip exhaust, and N Line badging on the tailgate. The Creta N Line has reflectors that are angled horizontally as opposed to the vertical ones seen on the basic Creta. Additionally, the Hyundai Creta N Line's rear bumper incorporates an all-black skid plate, unlike the standard model.
Hyundai Creta N Line vs Creta Facelift: Interior and Features
There aren't any official pictures of the interior yet. Market rumours, however, indicate that the dual-tone theme of the basic Creta will be replaced with an all-black one for the soon-to-be-released Creta N Line. In addition, the high-end SUV might come with a number of N Line-specific features, such as upholstery, a gear selector, and a steering wheel embroidered with the N Line logo.
In terms of features, the SUV is less likely to change, which means that amenities like 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, 10.25-inch all-digital instrument cluster, ESC, six airbags, traction control, ventilated seats and powered front seats, a 360-degree camera, connected car features, an inbuilt voice assistant, USB Type-C ports, a wireless charging pad, and more will be retained.
Hyundai Creta N Line vs Creta Facelift: Engine
In our market, the Creta Facelift is available with three different engine options. These include a 1.5-litre MPi petrol engine with 113bhp and 144Nm (IVT automatic transmission or 6-speed manual transmission), a 1.5-litre Kappa Turbo GDi petrol with 158bhp and 253Nm (7-speed DCT automatic transmission), and a 1.5-litre CRDi diesel engine with 114bhp and 250Nm (6-speed AT or 6-speed manual transmission).
On the other hand, the Creta N Line gets a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine with 253Nm and 158bhp, which is the same as the regular Creta. However, unlike the standard model that comes with only a seven-speed DCT AT with this engine, the Creta N line gets both a six-speed manual gearbox and a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic as transmission options.
Hyundai Creta N Line vs Creta Facelift: Price
The price of the Creta Facelift ranges between Rs 11 lakh and Rs 20 lakh in India. Owing to its premium and sportier characteristics, the upcoming N Line version will command a significant premium over the base model. All the prices are ex-showroom.
