The new Hyundai Creta EV is expected to look identical to its ICE version but expect to see notable changes including a new blanked-off grille, revised bumpers, and new aero-optimised alloy wheels. The charging flap is likely to be integrated into the front of the SUV.
The cabin, though, gets important changes going by the images. The steering wheel looks different and gets the new Hyundai logo, which is specific to EVs in the automaker’s stable globally. Hyundai India could introduce the new EV logo with the Creta EV before rolling it out on other models. Moreover, the car gets a drive mode selector mounted on the steering column.

There’s no word on performance numbers or ranges. The Hyundai Creta EV is expected to get a comparable battery pack to the MG ZS EV. Expect to see a range of around 500 km on a single charge. Expect a single motor powering the front wheels on the compact SUV. The Hyundai Group is going to get aggressive in its EV strategy for India and recently announced the localization of batteries for electric vehicles in the country in association with Exide.
This should keep prices competitive, while we expect to see a few extra features over the ICE Creta on the electric SUV. More details on the upcoming offering will be available in the months to come. The upcoming Hyundai Creta EV will take on the Mahindra XUV400, MG ZS EV, BYD Atto 3, and the like in the segment. Expect prices to be around the Rs 20-30 lakh mark.
