Here are 5 reasons why the Hyundai Creta is the ultimate family road trip companion.

Best In Class Rear Seat Experience

The Creta is a 5-seater compact SUV that impresses with its spaciousness, offering a comfortable ride for both front and rear passengers. What truly sets the Creta apart in its segment is the exceptional rear seat experience. When used as a chauffeur-driven vehicle, it ensures a relaxed journey with generous knee room, ample legroom even for six footers sitting back to back, and excellent thigh support. Plus, the rear headroom is more than adequate, even for taller passengers. 

Further, rear-seat passengers enjoy a host of comfort features, including Type-C USB charging points, AC vents, and a center armrest. The ability to recline the seats adds an extra layer of relaxation, making the Creta an ideal choice for families on longer journeys.Also, the cherry on top of the cake is the fact that the Creta offers soft neck pillows, making it ideal for those who take naps in the car. But if you aren’t someone who doesn’t sleep in the car, you can also enjoy the sky views, thanks to the panoramic sunroof, which extends all the way to the rear of the cabin. 

Comfortable Ride Quality

The Hyundai Creta makes long journeys even more enjoyable with its outstanding ride quality. Its suspension system is finely tuned to smooth out every bump and pothole while keeping the ride well-balanced and stable at higher speeds. This ensures a calm and composed cabin experience, with no disruptive movement. As a result, both front and rear passengers can enjoy the journey without any fatigue or ever leaving their comfort zone. This trait of the Creta also makes it perfect for elderly people, who want a nice comfy car which can deal with our road conditions. 

Amenities: Convenience On The Go

The Hyundai Creta comes loaded with top notch features which further adds to the convenience during longer journeys. It gets dual dual 10.25-inch displays (one for the touchscreen and the other for the driver's display). These screens offer a very intuitive touch experience and are loaded with features such as wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, making sure you are entertained during your drive. The digital driver’s display offers multiple display modes based on the driving mode selected, while it also features blind view monitoring. 

The Creta also gets a premium 8-speaker Bose sound system which offers fantastic acoustics. It also has dual-zone auto AC meaning the driver and passengers don’t have to fight for their preferred temperature setting. Other amenities include a wireless phone charger, ventilated front seats and a 360-degree camera, and a large panoramic sunroof, which adds to the airiness of the cabin.

Added Layer Of Safety

Safety is one of the most important considerations in today’s cars, especially when you're driving with your family on long journeys. Hyundai has left no room for compromise in this area, equipping the Creta with a host of safety features, including 6 airbags, ABS with EBD, hill start assist, vehicle stability control, tyre pressure monitoring system, and rear disc brakes. To further enhance peace of mind and an added assistance during long road trips, the Creta also comes with a Level 2 advanced driver assistance system (ADAS), which includes adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and blind spot detection. 

Powerful Engine Options

The Hyundai Creta is being offered with three engine choices, each paired with a specific transmission to match your driving style and needs. All three engines offer a good balance for both city and highway use. The 1.5-litre turbo-petrol caters to those who like to drive in a spirited manner, while the 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol will suit those who have a relaxed and laid back nature. Meanwhile, the 1.5-litre diesel engine is a mix of both, while being frugal, ensuring long distance road tripping doesn’t burn a hole in your wallet.
