New-Gen Hyundai Creta Gets Tucson Styling; India Launch Expected in 2022

As per one of the recent media reports, Hyundai Motor is currently working on the next-gen model of the Creta midsize SUV, as a new image of a camouflaged test mule of the upcoming car has appeared over the internet. The spy image indicates that the upcoming model will have a significantly revised front appearance. The design is now highly influenced by the new Hyundai Tucson and include some of the SUV’s eye-catching design features from its new ‘parametric dynamics’ theme.

We can have the idea from the available spy picture that the facelifted version is going to have a muscular bonnet, a new grille based on the brand’s new design language and streamlined split-style headlamps. The interiors of the upcoming car haven’t been seen yet however one can assume new materials, textures or some feature updates. The bodywork is likely to stay largely untouched, with the exception of some sharper-looking alloy wheels and deeper-cut bumpers.

Creta is one of the stylish SUVs in its segment and rivals the Kia Seltos, Tata Harrier, and the MG Hector.
