Design & Looks
All six models kept the sleek, modern look Hyundai has been polishing over the past few years. The Creta and Venue sport a bolder front grille and sharper LED headlights, which many buyers say make them stand out in traffic. The Aura’s compact hatchback shape feels fresh for city driving, while the i10 and i20 retain their friendly, rounded curves that appeal to first‑time owners. Even the Exter, Hyundai’s entry‑level SUV, got a subtle rear‑lamp redesign that adds a premium touch without raising the price.
Performance & Mileage
Fuel efficiency remains a key selling point. The Creta’s 1.5‑litre petrol engine delivers around 17 km/l, while the Venue’s 1.2‑litre turbo pushes 18 km/l in mixed driving. The Aura’s 1.2‑litre engine hits 20 km/l, making it one of the most economical hatchbacks in its segment. The i10 and i20 stick to their proven 1.2‑litre units, offering 21 km/l and 22 km/l respectively. The Exter, equipped with a modest 1.1‑litre engine, manages about 19 km/l, which is decent for an SUV of its size.

Hyundai’s pricing strategy stayed aggressive. The Creta starts at ₹12.5 lakhs, undercutting the Kia Seltos by a small margin. The Venue begins at ₹8.2 lakhs, beating the Tata Nexon’s entry price. The Aura is priced from ₹5.9 lakhs, giving the Maruti Suzuki Wagon R a run for its money. The i10 and i20 sit comfortably at ₹5.3 lakhs and ₹7.8 lakhs, respectively, while the Exter launches at ₹9.5 lakhs, challenging the Mahindra XUV300 in the budget‑SUV space.
