Though the company hasn’t revealed anything about the product except its name, we believe it’s the Hyundai ix25 since it’s the company’s global product that will also be launched in India during this year’s festive season.

Set to rival Renault Duster, Nissan Terrano, Mahindra Scorpio and others in the league, the Hyundai Creta will share its engines with the Verna. Though there is no official confirmation about the engine options either, we are of the opinion that it will be offered with all of Verna’s 4 engines i.e. 1.4-litre petrol & diesel and 1.6-litre petrol & diesel – thus giving buyers multiple options to choose from.
Based on the i20’s platform, the Hyundai Creta will take its design inspiration from the company’s Fluidic 2.0 design philosophy. The Hyundai Creta will measure 4270mm in length, 1780mm in width, 1630mm in height, and sport a wheelbase of 2590mm, thus making it as spacious as the Renault Duster and Nissan Terrano.
