The new Creta is expected to be built on Hyundai’s new K3 platform, which also underpins the new Kia Seltos. The SUV will also carry a sharper design language, and might derive some styling elements from the second-generation Seltos. Spy images suggest that it will feature the new Venue-inspired LED headlamps with eyebrow-shaped LED DRLs along with revised front bumper and newly-designed alloy wheels.
3. Pleos Connect
One of the biggest upgrades will come in the form of Hyundai’s Pleos Connect system, which will include a large centre touchscreen and a slim driver’s display.

5. Hybrid Powertrain
Hyundai is working on a new strong hybrid powertrain, which is expected to debut with the new 2027 Hyundai Creta. It’s likely to be based on the existing 1.5L petrol engine. The new-gen model lineup will also be available with the existing 115bhp, 1.5L naturally aspirated petrol, 160bhp, 1.5L turbo petrol and 116bhp, 1.5L diesel engine options.
