Hyundai Creta N Line Launched in India at Rs 16.82 Lakh, Can Do 0-100km/h in 8.9 Seconds

Hyundai has added a sportier version of the Creta SUV to the N Line range. Called the Hyundai Creta N Line, the new SUV is available at a starting price of Rs 16.82 lakh for the N8 MT variant, while the top-spec N10 DCT variant costs Rs 20.30 lakh. All prices are ex-showroom. Bookings for the Creta N Line are already underway for a token amount of Rs 25,000. The Creta N Line is the brand's third N performance division car in the country, and like the Venue N Line and the i20 N Line, it comes with cosmetic updates both inside and out, a retuned suspension setup, and a sportier exhaust system with dual tips.

Styling-wise, the Hyundai Creta N Line has a sportier front fascia, characterised by a slender grille and a revised bumper with silver inserts, large air inlets, and cuts and creases. However, elements like headlamps, sequential indicators, and L-shaped LED daytime running lights remain the same. On the sides, there are N Line-specific red accents and side skirts, N Line badging, and bigger 18-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels with red brake callipers. The regular Creta model, in comparison, comes with 16- and 17-inch wheels. At the rear, the Creta N Line features a reworked bumper, dual-tip exhaust pipes, and a larger roof-mounted spoiler, along with side skirts and red accents. Hyundai has also introduced a new colour scheme for the car – Thunder blue with Abyss Black roof. Other dual-tone colour options are Shadow Grey with Abyss Black roof and Atlas White with Abyss Black roof. Hyundai also offers the car in three monotone colours – Titan Grey Matte, Atlas White, and Abyss Black. 

Hyundai Creta N Line: Interior

Inside, the updates – revealed on March 6 – include an all-black interior theme with red accents and N Line logos. The car also gets a new 3-spoke steering wheel with contrast red stitching, red ambient lighting, leather upholstery, a new gear lever, and metal pedals. Based on the top-spec SX(O) variant of the Creta, the Hyundai Creta N Line gets twin 10.25-inch screens for the infotainment and instrumentation, 70+ connected car features, 148 embedded voice commands, a voice-enabled panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, an eight-way motorised driver's seat, a Bose music system with 8 speakers, dual-zone automatic climate control, and wireless charging. 

Safety-wise, the company's flagship N Line model comes with 42 standard safety features (six airbags, electronic parking brake, ESC, etc.) and over 70 advanced safety features, including a 360-degree surround-view monitor, blind-view monitor, and Level 2 ADAS). 

Hyundai Creta N Line: Powertrain

Powering the Hyundai Creta N Line is the same turbo-petrol engine that propels the 2024 Hyundai Creta. The 1.5-litre four-cylinder turbo-petrol unit produces 158bhp and 253Nm of peak torque. The carmaker claims the car can sprint from 0 to 100km/h in 8.9 seconds. 

Transmission duties are taken care of by a 6-speed manual and a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox (offered with paddle shifters). The car comes with three drive modes – Normal, Eco, and Sport – and three traction control modes – Snow, Sand, and Mud. 

Hyundai Creta N Line: Price

The Hyundai Creta N Line will go on sale alongside the standard Creta, which falls between Rs 11 lakh and Rs 20 lakh (ex-showroom). Being a sportier version, the base-spec Creta N Line is nearly Rs 6 lakh more expensive than the regular Creta. This is the third N Line model from the Korean brand in the country, with prices ranging from Rs 16.82 lakh to Rs 20.30 lakh (ex-showroom). The other two N Line models in India are the Venue N Line and the i20 N Line – its international-spec version recently received a refresh.
