The Hyundai Creta Electric is a familiar face with a futuristic soul. Hyundai has taken what people love about the Creta and given it an electric makeover without overcomplicating things. The result? A car that doesn’t scream “EV” but blends effortlessly into the everyday world while packing all the benefits of electric mobility. At first glance, the design remains unmistakably Creta, but subtle EV-specific tweaks like the pixelated bumpers, a closed-off front grille with an LED charging indicator, and aerodynamic wheels make it clear that this is a next-gen upgrade. Unlike some other EVs that try too hard to look different, the Creta Electric sticks to a winning formula, keeping that mass-market appeal intact. It might look “normal” to some, but that’s a strength, not a weakness. Step inside, and it’s clear Hyundai hasn’t just copied and pasted the existing Creta’s interior. The new three-spoke steering wheel, featuring a Morse code-inspired ‘H’ emblem instead of the Hyundai logo, is a standout detail. The cabin feels premium with a cleaner, more minimalist center console, thanks to the absence of a gear lever. The floating design adds storage space, and the light-colored upholstery with metallic strips makes the cabin feel more spacious. Hyundai has also borrowed elements from the Alcazar, elevating the Creta Electric’s premium appeal. What’s truly impressive is how Hyundai has fine-tuned the ergonomics. EVs often struggle with rear-seat comfort due to floor-mounted battery packs eating into legroom. Hyundai has cleverly increased the rear seat angle by 1.4 degrees and improved the cushioning by 5mm, making it surprisingly comfortable for an electric SUV. While taller passengers might feel the slightly raised floorboard, the smart seat adjustments make up for it. Functionality is another win. The Creta Electric offers 433 liters of boot space, and a 22-liter frunk for extra storage. Hyundai has also integrated Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) technology, meaning you can power devices directly from the car — perfect for remote work setups or road trips. The "Boss Mode" for the rear passenger, allowing seat adjustments for extra legroom, adds a touch of luxury. The only notable miss? Still no wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. For a car that embraces the future, sticking to wired connectivity feels like an oversight. Hyundai’s approach with the Creta Electric is simple yet effective — keep what works, enhance what needs improvement, and electrify the experience without making it alien. This is a well-thought-out package that doesn’t just ride on the EV wave but refines what a mass-market electric SUV should be.
