The second-generation Hyundai Creta has just been given a big refresh for India, and its prices now start at Rs 11 lakh (introductory ex-showroom pan-India). Hyundai is offering the updated SUV in seven broad variants: E, EX, S, S (O), SX, SX Tech, and SX (O). If you have been thinking of picking the entry-level E variant, you can take a look at it in these detailed images below:

Exterior

Up front, the Creta E gets the same redesigned grille sans the dark chrome inserts and chunky bumper finished in dull grey. It comes with halogen projector headlights and turn indicators located inside the LED DRL setup. Being the base variant, Hyundai has skipped on offering it with a functional set of LED DRLs.

The biggest tell-tale signs of it being a base variant from the side are the front fender-located turn indicators, body coloured door handles instead of chrome, and 16-inch steel wheels with covers. At the rear, the 2024 Hyundai Creta E variant misses out on LED taillights but still gets the LED light bar in the centre.

Interior

The interior makes it very clear that this is indeed a base-spec Creta. It has a manual climate control panel and no touchscreen or music system altogether. That said, it does have a semi-digital instrument cluster along with steering-mounted controls.

Safety kit on the base-spec Creta E comprises six airbags, electronic stability control (ESC), a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and 3-point seatbelts for all passengers.
