Hyundai Creta Anniversary Edition: 8 Expected Changes

The Hyundai Creta has been a huge success with the rising SUV market in the country. To celebrate the same, Hyundai has introduced a special Anniversary Edition of the Creta. We caught a glimpse of this car during the unveiling event in Bangalore last month.Hyundai presented the first Anniversary Edition car to badminton sensation Saina Nehwal at the event. While conversing with a few Hyundai dealers in Delhi, we were informed that the new edition car will arrive at the dealerships soon. The SUV is expected to sport some subtle changes. If you are the one in the market,thinking about the SUV, do check out the changes expected in the special-edition Creta.

1. Colour Scheme: Just one! This edition will only be available in white colour. It’s a safe choice and we must say, white with all the rest of the bodywork does make this special edition standout

2. Trim: Again, just one! It will be available only on the SX+ trim

3. Engine: Both petrol and diesel engines will be available in this edition

4. Blackened Top: The roof along with pillars will get a glossy black paint. It’s a nice contrast overall w.r.t the white colour scheme on offer

5. Body decals: It will endorse the ‘1 Anniversary Edition’ decal on the C-pillars while dual colour decal strips in matte grey and red are also a part of the package

6. No chrome bar at the back: Yes, for many who felt that the use of chrome is a bit too loud, Hyundai has made a change at the back. This edition will sport a body-coloured bar at the top of the number plate on the tailgate instead of a chrome set-up.

7. Interiors: On the inside, Hyundai has used a red and black theme to jazz up the interiors. The seats adorn a red layout along with red stitching on the sides. The dashboard also gets the red flavour on the vertically-stacked AC vents while the rest of the cabin gets a black treatment. The steering wheel will be draped in leather. On the whole, the cabin does appear sporty.

8. Only in Manual, No Automatic: From what we could gather, this edition will only be available with manual transmission

On the mechanical front, the engines will remain unaltered. Bookings have started for this edition, Hyundai is expecting deliveries to commence sometime soon. Although, we could not close in on the exact premium that Hyundai will ask for this edition, but one can expect an increase of Rs 35,000-40,000 for the Anniversary Edition Creta.
