- A Glimpse of Interiors out
- Carries EV-specific changes
As the world shifts towards a more and more electric future, carmakers are at the forefront of it. While some major carmakers like Mercedes have announced a complete electric portfolio by 2030, others are making the moves quietly. Following the industry footsteps, we have the Hyundai Creta Electric currently under testing.
Let's check out what the Ev incarnation of the popular SUV holds for you all.
Hyundai Creta Electric Interiors On Camera
The Creta Electric keeps on testing without any camo. Even earlier, when we had a first glimpse, it bared it all out while on the road. Why? Because the outer shell is completely the same, for now. The fact that you can only make out that it is an EV when you spot it at a charging station.

The first thing that crosses our mind is that the screen is the 8-inch unit hinting at a lower trim. Plus, the ac knobs seem to be bigger than normal along with a complementing-sized display in between. Gazing past the usual flat-bottomed steering wheel, the instrument cluster looks new as well. It will be revamped to include EV-specific details like range, battery charge, and more. The center console looks like an all-new addition with a dial that could act as a mode selector.
Even some more changes and additions can be incorporated into the production model, as this seems to be midstage testing, given the SUV's charging port is currently accessed by opening the bonnet.
Coming to the outside, it is again spotted charging at a station with its bonnet opened while juicing up. Last time it was snapped in a similar state. On the outside, it is very difficult to gauge at this point that this is an EV. Although the final product will have exterior elements to announce the EV characteristics.
A closed front grille with a charging port cutout, EV badging at the back, some cosmetic accents, no exhaust outlet, and much more. Moreover, the timeline suggests that the Creta Electric could come with its facelift facia at its time of launch. The battery capacity and the range could claim somewhere near the 450 km mark. In the segment, it will face the MG ZS EV that falls around a claimed range of 461 km on a single charge.
Verdict
With the rise of competitors such as the Tata Nexon EV Max and Mahindra XUV400, Hyundai has recognized the need to enter the electric vehicle (EV) market in India. As a result, they are considering launching an EV version of their popular model, the Creta.
