Buyers eagerly awaiting the refreshed Hyundai Creta are facing extended waiting periods, with some variants stretching up to five months, according to industry sources. The Creta, priced between Rs 11 lakh and Rs 20 lakh, has become a sought-after choice in the market post its facelift release on January 16 2024.
The waiting periods vary across different engine and gearbox options. The Creta petrol and turbo-petrol variants considered the quickest to deliver, have waiting periods ranging from 3 to 4 months. On the other hand, the Creta diesel models, powered by a 116hp, 1.5-litre unit with 6-speed manual and 6-speed torque convertor gearbox options, face the longest waiting period of 4 to 5 months.
The Most popular variant
The top-spec Creta SX(O) emerges as the most popular variant among buyers, reflecting a strong demand for the high-end features and capabilities offered by this trim. Customers appear to be particularly drawn to the sophisticated allure of the Abyss Black color option, making it the most requested finish. In contrast, Titan Grey has attracted the least amount of buyers, showcasing varying preferences in color choices.
