Thats not how cafe norms work brother. It is calculated based on actual sales numbers / known as fleet numbers. If Hyundai is selling 45000 ICE cars and selling only 500 Creta EV it will not even offset 2 to 3 % CO2 numbers. To offset 10% Co2 numbers they need to sell atleast 5000+ EVs consistently.

Expected Creta will create a storm in EV market but initial impressions are not impressive . When competitors are offering LFP battery chemistry, NMC is a step back in 2025. The battery position and the projection under the body doesn't give confidence considering the bad roads we tackle everyday. 426KM range is too optimistic number in reality I don't think it's achievable. Hyundai needs to price the product aggressively to create interest among consumers. In terms of technology I feel BE 6 and curvv are superior compared to creta

battery placement might be an issue in the future, i own a nexon ev larger battery pack, my car's battery got damaged when an iron rod pointing out of nowhere hit the battery cage on a speed breaker resulting to a tiny hold on the battery cage. The repair cost was 2.82 lakhs, it voids the warranty as it is refer as accident, even after that adequate ground clearance, indian roads are quite unpredictable i don't know how well hyundai protect its batteries despite the protrusion
This is exactly why we all should wait & watch how this ev game plays out. Unlike western countries, the Govt here has wrong priorities and won't trust anything they promote (in this case, ev).
Indian roads are unpredictable. During the rainy season we have to cross big potholes specially in the rural areas, where water may damage the battery.
How with a half horse half car? Compromised boot space, no frunk. Putting a tiny 3cyl, 50% extra tax... zero performance... still visiting gas station for an emi... still black fumes in your ac exhaust... still oil changes... double ice EV maintenance... Sorry unless you drive 800km a day or a fleet driver..... bev all the way ❤
@@saurabh459 800 km a day???? Did you pull these numbers out of your rear end? Hybrids are incredibly fuel efficient and if you plan on keeping your car around for the next 10-15 years then they make an easy perfect choice. Whether you drive them in city or on highway they give excellent mileage, pretty much unmatched by anything other than old diesel engines. Zero performance? They are more than capable of keeping up with traffic whether in city or on highway. Not everyone is trying to pedal to the metal race their engine to red line, so the argument of 0 power is stupidity in extreme. A tiny 3 cylinder in Virtus and Taigun delivers more performance than most of your other cars in the segment. You can complain to your beloved "ache din" promising government for the 50% tax. Boot space is compromised a little but if boot space is your top priority then trying to purchase either an EV or a Hybrid is a bad choice. What you want is an SUV or a big Sedan. For the rest of don't depend on traveling with full luggage every other day the compromised space is not a huge concern. Hybrids are the perfect solution to lowering environmental emissions, making the vehicles more economical, making the transition to EVs smoother and making the automobile market more stable for consumers for the next 2 decades.
NMC battery is a step back in terms of thermal stability and overall safety. In 2025, LFP should be bare minimum considering the harsh Indian climatic conditions. Mahindra & Suzuki have perfect offerings with BYD Blade cells.
Hyundai had the chance to differentiate its EV from the regular Creta by offering the 12.3 inch dipslay setup from the Syros and some interior bits from Tuscon. That would've been ok for a compact premium car. By changing the drivetrain and not much else, people would definitely cross shop with diesel creta, compare running costs, and come to a conclusion. If it is priced anything above Rs.3L, it would be very hard to find proper buyers. Moreover, the charging port on the front, where most of the car crashes happen, is not a very shrewd move.
There is a reason EV car launches are done in hotter climates. I am living with an EV in Delhi and I can say the following to keep in mind before buying an EV: 1) Range WILL go down if you do multiple stops. Every time you start the car again, range will deplete by some percentage. 2) Range WILL deplete in winters as battery uses its own power to heat it. Plus car heater is also depending on EV battery. 3) Whatever battery range is CLAIMED, ideally subtract 100-150 kms range. 4) Running car with heater uses a bit more power than running it with AC on. 5) Plan your trips well in advance as you would need charger infrastructure on your trip. I use Statiq app for planning trip and it has helped me every time to have a anxiety free drive.
No one would fear echoing the same as others are also commenting about battery exposure, placement and it’s doesn’t come with a born electric platform. Car doesn’t look as exciting as the ICE versions honestly. And another bummer : no android auto and no apple car play 😂😂😂 they be kiddin ???
I don't see any merit -50KW- 58min for fast charging battery sticking down eating up the ground clearance. it would have been better if Hyundai had developed something on a dedicated EV platform rather than repurposing an ICE platform.
looking more like Brezza now from a long distance (may be the new paint and the front setup), another first for Hyundai trying to fall in line than going extravagant with their crazy exterior designs
Seeing 600 plus range from Mahindra a 400 plus claimed range seems boring. Perhaps because this is an ice conversion and not a true skateboard. Why is Hyundai not getting it’s actual electrics in, instead of rehashing decade old platforms
Unfortunately, mentality in India is : Flog the horse till it dies, then only bring in the new one ! We are still treated as a TIER-2 consumer & that's why we keep getting crap like this..
Hyundai will bring proper EVs if this half hearted attempt fails. If this car becomes successful then they have no reason to invest into localising a born EV platform for India.
"The EV Creta, priced over 15 lakh, is not worth it. Consider that it has only 5% GST, whereas its ICE version has 43% GST. This gives the company a 38% GST benefit. If its price is around 17 lakh, then the first vehicles to consider are the MG Winder or Tata Curvv."
Ice creta start at 11.11, if we deduct 3 lakh gst and rough engine price of 1.5 lakh we get 6.6, now add 4 lakh battery thats 10.6 and add 5 % gst thats 11.14 lakh . Now add hundai profit say 3 lakh. So 14.14 . So i think 14.99 lakh
Dear Auto car team, Great review. We expect you to show the under body battery, motor placements, suspension architecture... we want autocar to have something substantial, not to stick only with religious review like aesthetics interior and all usual stuffs.
These mixed driving cycle figures are not much help. There is no problem with EV's in the city, the range anxiety kicks "only" on highway. So what we need is separate figures for highway and city. Infact I only want highway figures as we all know city range is anyway more than that on highway (thanks to regen) and sufficient for daily errands. So pls try to give separate figures specifically for highway. 🙏
If ICE engine creta has 190mm ground clearance, how come the electric creta based on the same platform with battery down visible has 200mm ground clearance, very doubtful
Battery placement is definitely low. But it's nice hearing that there is 200mm GC. But that's unladen. What happens when it's full 4/5 people with luggage. How will it hold then on our roads?
NMC battery is big problem with its reliabilty problem of low recharge life cycle and safety at hot climate. Xuv 400 with NMC battery not selling even with big discount.
Considering that EVs are always automatic. I won't be surprised if the Delta between the Creta ICE AT and the Creta EV is minimum.. In such a scenario.. This is a blockbuster in making.
Hyundai had to do this in order to meet CAFE regulations and what better option than to convert their most successful Creta. Let's wait for their born electric cars.
Everything is good except that battery placement. It looks like jugad placement. It will be difficult to drive during water logging and on roads having bumps.
The protruding battery is giving me a nightmare! Horrible placement of all EVs. I don’t think the 200mm ground clearance is from the bottom of the battery, can someone confirm?
Creta elec probs 1. No wireless Android auto or carplay. Unbelievable. Has wireless charging but not this? dont know which MBA in a suit is making these decisions 2. Low sitting batt pack. A big risk of hitting potholes in India and getting submerged during monsoon especially in Bengaluru. Have to tolerate a stiffer ride also because of this. 3. Tata Curvv is more car for the price and we dont have to deal the bad tata service either since there is no engine. 4. Although Mahidra BE 6e is more expensive, its new and refreshing. 5. Considering the position of the batt, they should have used a LFP since its safer n more durable but then range would definitely be lower but final price of car also could be lower BUT in this segment this car has no competition. Nexon ev cant compete in terms of interior or features or reliability. There is no elec Mahindra 3xo.
Please also advice EV buyers to read their vehicle insurance class line by line before taking insurance, since our great Indian insurance companies are selling comprehensive insurance policy which need Battery protect to be taken as add on in an EV🤣

i don't think any informed consumer would buy this car. The newer electric vehicles like the Tata Curvv, Mahindra BE 6 have a dedicated platform for their electric vehicles, giving them an advantage of increased range and proper placement of the battery pack unlike the creta where it can get damaged due to our uneven roads. Moreover it is really stupid that this car is going to have NMC batteies instead of LFP which all the other new gen cars using. NMC has considerably less charging cycles and a higher rate of degradation compared to LFP and they are more suited to cold climates.
