It offers refined petrol, turbo petrol and diesel engine option with smooth automatic transmission The base variants are reasonably loaded It is available in a good number of variants catering a wider audience The suspension of the SUV is well-tuned offering a comfortable ride Comes loaded with features like 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment, 360-degree camera, BOSE premium sound system, panoramic sunroof The safety kit includes a good number of features starting from the base variant such as 6 airbags, hill assist control, all 4-disc brakes, level 2 ADAS Hyundai Creta is one of the top-selling SUVs with a strong resale value Hyundai’s widespread sales and service network is a boon for customers	It now gets a more imposing stance with a new design. The Harrier scored 5-star in the GNCAP crash test. It offers better comfort inside the cabin with a winged headrest. The base Smart variant is decently equipped. Most of the variants now come with an option for automatic transmission. It comes within segment ground clearance. Multi-drive modes are now available from mid-variants.
Cons	The pricing of the top-spec variant is too high Six-seater configuration is available in the top-spec variants only The third row feels a little crammed mostly suitable for kids The positioning of the air purifier eats up the kneeroom of the second-row passenger behind the driver The reliability of the DCT gearbox is a question It misses on some features such as a 360-degree camera, panoramic sunroof, and some others The diesel engine does not offer a proper manual gearbox, it comes with an iMT unit	Not everyone may like the Creta's design language The soft suspension may not provide much comfort for the rear passenger The turbo petrol engine option is available with DCT only and comes with a high price tag Automatic transmission is limited to a few variants Certain variants come with a higher price tag, and you can find larger SUVs within the same price range	The base variant offers decent equipment, but mid-variants lack some features. Adaptive Cruise Control is exclusive to AT variants. Single Diesel engine, no petrol option available. Fit and finish issues persist, similar to other Tata cars. The ride quality is a bit on the stiffer side. The pricing of the new Harrier feels slightly overpriced.
