Hyundai Creta is due for a comprehensive facelift later this year that will see it undergo radical design updates

Hyundai has discreetly updated the second top-spec variant in the Creta lineup with a new feature onboard. The second-most premium trim in the compact SUV’s lineup- SX has now received an additional feature in the package. The updates are mostly related to features available inside the cabin.

Competition in the Indian passenger vehicle market has been rampant in recent times, especially in the compact and subcompact SUV segments. Hence automakers have been relentlessly trying to update their respective product lineup by providing feature updates or introducing some special edition models.

Hyundai Creta SX- Features on offer

In this case, the Korean carmaker has added a semi-digital instrument console in the driver’s display which is borrowed from the top-spec SX Option trim. It replaces the analogue cluster seen in the lower variants.

Other than this, the feature list of the SX trim remains unchanged. This trim misses out on a few cool features like ventilated front seats, auto-dimming IRVMs and leather upholstery that are available in the top-spec variant. Take a look at the update in the video below by The Car Show.
