Hyundai Creta options: The Hyundai Creta was launched in South Africa in 2017. People were impressed by its competitive price point and, coupled with Hyundai's superb 7 year / 200 000km warranty, made it a viable choice.
Three years later, the new version is released in SA. It's the new modern crossover your family will adore. The car sets a very high standard for practicality and safety. The Creta interior is reinforced with a six-airbag system to keep you and your passengers safe.
We love the advanced Rear Parking Assist System, with a rearview camera display and steering guidelines for stress-free parking. In the city, that is priceless. Take a look at this summary table detailing what is available across the range: (This table compares the 2020 models.)

*IVT (Infinitely Variable Transmission) is similar to a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). It performs continuous shifts to provide superior efficiency over automatic transmissions and uses new Shift Control Strategy technology to work with driver input, vehicle behaviour, and acceleration.
**The 7-speed dual-clutch transmission gives a sporty driving performance: direct drive and lightning-fast gear changes without interrupting the shear force. It achieves better fuel economy than that of a manual transmission.
If space is what you are after then you should look at the Grand Creta, it is a little bigger, with 2 additional seats. Have a look at our Hyundai Grand Creta review if you need more information.
