In a recent media interaction, Tarun Garg, COO of Hyundai India, expressed satisfaction with the performance of the N Line models, stating that the niche product has garnered positive numbers. Garg revealed plans to expand the N Line portfolio in India, expecting sales to reach 15,000-20,000 units in the next few years. While the specific N Line model was not disclosed, it is strongly hinted that the upcoming addition will be a Creta N Line, based on the popular Creta SUV, set to launch later this year following the release of the Creta facelift.

Hyundai Creta N-Line Expected Powertrain

As recently reported, the Creta facelift is set to feature three engine options, with the introduction of a new 1.5-litre, 160hp turbo-petrol engine replacing the previous 1.4-litre variant. The N Line version is expected to adopt this engine, paired with the 7-speed dual-clutch (DCT) gearbox. While the engine output is not anticipated to change, Hyundai is likely to enhance the N Line model with a sportier suspension setup, a more dynamic exhaust note, and adjusted steering dynamics, aligning with the characteristics of other N Line offerings.

Hyundai is gearing up for a series of launches in 2024, with the Creta facelift taking the lead followed by the introduction of the sportier Creta N Line. Additionally, the Alcazar is slated for a facelift this year, and there are prospects of the facelifted Tucson making its way to the Indian market, having been unveiled internationally in the previous year.
