New-Gen Hyundai Creta In Works; Launch Expected By 2027

Hyundai Motors introduced the facelift iteration of the 2nd-generation Creta last year, and now, the brand is gearing up for its new generation version, which is expected to hit markets in 2027. Codenamed SX3, the third-generation Creta will flaunt a completely new design inside out, along with a strong-hybrid powertrain option.

As per Autocar Indiaโ€™s report, the 3rd-gen Creta will be the second Hyundai model in India to get a strong hybrid powertrain. The first will be a new mid-size SUV (codenamed Ni1i), likely be positioned between the Alcazar and Tucson in the brandโ€™s product lineup.

While details are scarce at the moment, Hyundai is expected to utilise its 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine to pair it with a strong hybrid setup. Globally, the Hyundai Tucson comes with a 1.6-litre TGDi petrol-hybrid setup. However, it wonโ€™t be a cost-effective option for the Indian market.

Besides the new hybrid mill, the 2027 Hyundai Creta could carry forward the ongoing 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol and 1.5-litre diesel engine options. The upgraded SUV is also likely to get a long list of new features, including a heads-up display, memory function for the front seats, and slide function for the rear seats.

Along with the ICE-powered Creta, the Creta Electric is also expected to be updated by then.
