Hyundai Creta 1.6D SX(O) Ownership Review: "It Came, I Saw, We Conquered"

[vBeat]

Congratulations on your new ride Naveen . Very detailed review.
For Creta I can surely say "Love at first sight".
At least for me, except for pricing, it ticks almost all the boxes.

Nice review buddy.Creta is one of the best looking SUV from Hyundai.Except it's price,Creta is a sure bang.After Maruti priced S-Cross poorly,Creta seems to be VFM IMO.My dad had a look at Creta after its launch and got impressed with it except it's price.

BTW,for how much did you sell your Ecosport for?

Congrats on the acquisition. Just one line to sum up my feelings after reading the report - this is as good as any famous automotive portal's official review. Enjoy

Awesome review naveen04in and congrats on your wonderful buy. I must say your review has made me reconsider Creta. Wish you to have a niggle free mile munching ownership experience.

Rated a 5 star! Super review. I saw the car in Bangalore road. Great road presence.

After seeing S-Cross pricing, I don't think Creta pricing is in the higher side.

Wishing you long, happy and safe driving.

Congrats on your acquisition of Baby Santafe. Neatly written review with simultaneous posting in two websites.

What is the Fuel Efficiency in city as well as on the highway?
Have you taken your ride to any of the mild off-roading path?

 

[naveen04in]

Thanks everyone for those kind words. Extremely happy with the car.

@mithra - There's no average mileage reading in the odo so cant tell exactly. Am waiting for the tank to be empty. Took to some bad sections in the city and it took the potholes well.

Congratulations Naveen. Wish you a happy and safe miles and miles of driving.

Congratulations on you're new Companion

I have personally felt that the Creta is a little over priced . What is your stand on it ?

Does the car overall satisfies for the amount shredded ?

 

[naveen04in]

@ Vishnu - Thanks a lot. Yes, it's a bit expensive and 15L on road would have be perfect. But definitely feel the car is worth the cash.

Accessory Update:- Bike Carrier

This was something that I wanted right when I bought the ecosport. Decided to go ahead this time. Thule was the one I wanted. Went to a local shop dealing in Thule and was taken aback when I heard the price. I was expecting 14k-15k but 23k for two bars was really shocking. Wonder whether he was trying to fool me.

I knew Hyundai had this as an accessory for the i20 Active. But knowing OE accessories would cost a bomb, I thought I would skip it. Called my SA and told the MRP was close to 15k but said he would give it for 13k. And since this comes with the bike carrier, it was a pretty good deal. Paid for the kit and got it installed. Planning to paint or sticker the bars black.

Nice addition. What's with keralities and good photography skills! What camera are you using? Any idea on cosmetic mods?
