Overview
- Fresh spy images published Tuesday show a larger freestanding screen running Pleos Connect, Hyundai’s new software platform with over-the-air updates and the Gleo voice assistant.
- The test car uses a column-mounted shift-by-wire selector that clears space under the center console while keeping key physical buttons on the wheel and dash.
- Reports point to a multi-link rear suspension and larger 19-inch wheels that aim to improve ride quality and give the SUV a broader stance.
- Dual front radars spotted on prototypes suggest an expanded Level 2+ driver-assist suite, and top trims are likely to offer all-wheel drive.
- The next Creta is expected to move to the newer K3 platform, keep its 1.5-litre petrol, turbo-petrol and diesel engines, add a 1.5-litre hybrid, and reach India around Diwali 2026 or early 2027.
