Hyundai Creta Becomes India’s New Bestseller SUV
New Delhi: Competition in the Indian compact SUV market continues to intensify, but the Hyundai Creta has achieved a position that other companies have consistently strived to achieve. The Creta has maintained its top position even among popular models like the Tata Nexon, Maruti Brezza, Grand Vitara, Honda Elevate, Kia Seltos, and Tata Punch. Since the beginning of 2025, this SUV has remained a customer favorite, and its popularity shows no signs of slowing.
From January to October 2025, Hyundai Creta sales exceeded 170,000 units. Sales of approximately 17,000 units per month on average helped it become the country's best-selling SUV. Significantly, despite the auto market experiencing numerous ups and downs during this period, Creta sales remained stable or increased almost every month. If November and December continue at this pace, the Creta is likely to surpass two lakh units sold by the end of this year, which would be a major milestone.

A major reason for the Hyundai Creta's popularity is its powerful engine options and various transmission setups, which offer customers a wide range of choices. This SUV comes with modern and refined engine options such as a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated petrol, a 1.5-liter turbo petrol, and a 1.5-liter diesel. These engines are available with transmission options such as a 6-speed manual, CVT, 7-speed DCT, and 6-speed automatic, perfectly meeting the needs of different types of drivers. The turbo petrol engine is particularly popular among younger customers.
In terms of features, the Creta has always been a feature-loaded SUV, and its 2025 model has been further enhanced. It includes Level-2 ADAS, a 360-degree camera, a premium digital display, a panoramic sunroof, ventilated seats, and over 70 advanced technology features. Notably, even the base variant of the Creta is quite practical and offers all the features needed for everyday use.
