Hyundai Creta dominates car sales in India during the first half of 2025, selling an impressive 117,000 units.
Hyundai Creta Continues to Dominate Indian Mid-Size SUV Market
The Hyundai Creta has maintained its stronghold in the Indian mid-size SUV market, accounting for a significant 31% market share [1]. This success can be attributed to several key factors that cater to the evolving demands of consumers.
Firstly, Hyundai has built a strong emotional connect and brand trust with Indian customers over the years, reinforcing the Creta's reputation as a top choice in the market [1][2]. This trust is further bolstered by the company's comprehensive after-sales service and impressive resale value.
Secondly, the latest Creta models come equipped with a host of premium features. These include a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, digital instrument cluster, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, wireless phone charging, connected car technology, ventilated front seats, and a panoramic sunroof [1].
Thirdly, the vehicle offers a wide range of engine and transmission options. Consumers can choose from a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol, 1.5-litre diesel, and a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine, paired with transmissions from a 6-speed manual to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic [1]. This diversity caters to varying preferences for power and fuel efficiency.
In addition, the Creta has undergone several design refreshes and updates, keeping it competitive amid new entries from rivals like Kia Seltos, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, and Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder [2]. A notable update in 2024 enhanced its style and tech features.
The Creta's sustained sales leadership is evident in its consistent topping of sales charts, leading the SUV and overall passenger vehicle segments in India for much of 2025 [1][2][5]. This resilience is demonstrated by its notable year-on-year growth (8% for Jan–July 2025).
By 2024, the annual sales of the Hyundai Creta climbed to 1,86,919 units [1]. Moreover, the vehicle has crossed 12 lakh cumulative domestic sales in India [1]. Interestingly, almost 70 per cent of today's Creta buyers opt for a variant with a panoramic sunroof [1].
In conclusion, the Hyundai Creta stands out as a well-rounded offering that meets the evolving demands of Indian consumers in the mid-size SUV segment through a blend of innovation, comfort, performance, and perceived value.
