The Hyundai Creta has once again proven its dominance in the Indian auto market, emerging as the highest-selling passenger vehicle in India for June 2025. Hyundai reported total sales of 15,786 units of the Creta last month, reaffirming the SUV’s status as a segment leader.
Hyundai’s strong sales in June capped off an impressive first half of 2025, with the Creta also crowned as India’s best-selling SUV from January to June. Notably, the SUV achieved the top-selling vehicle position in March, April, and June 2025, beating out hatchbacks and sedans that typically lead the charts.
This milestone coincides with the 10th anniversary of the Hyundai Creta, which first launched in 2015. Over the past decade, it has not only redefined the mid-size SUV segment but has also maintained an unbroken streak as the highest-selling SUV in its class every single year.
So influential has the Creta’s impact been that the segment is now often referred to as the "Creta segment", a nod to its sustained dominance and widespread popularity.
According to Hyundai, more than 1.2 million Indian families now own a Creta, making it one of the most beloved SUVs in the country.
“Creta is not just a product, it is an emotion,” Hyundai India stated, reflecting the deep connection that consumers have built with the model. The car has been a key driver of Hyundai’s growth in India, both in terms of volume and brand perception.
The success of the Creta can be attributed to its continuous innovation and robust feature list. Blending cutting-edge technology, advanced safety systems, and a comfortable, stylish design, the Creta remains a benchmark in the mid-size SUV space.
As part of Hyundai’s commitment to sustainable mobility, the Creta has also entered the electric vehicle (EV) market. The Hyundai Creta Electric is now available with two battery options:
42 kWh with an estimated range of up to 390 km
51.4 kWh offering up to 473 km on a full charge
This electric variant broadens the Creta’s appeal and signals Hyundai’s intent to lead the shift towards cleaner transportation in India.
The internal combustion engine (ICE) variants of the Creta offer multiple engine choices tailored to different driving needs:
1.5-litre MPi petrol:
Power: 115 bhp
Torque: 144 Nm
Transmission: 6-speed manual or IVT automatic
1.5-litre Kappa Turbo GDi petrol:
Power: 160 bhp
Torque: 253 Nm
Transmission: 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT)
1.5-litre U2 CRDi diesel:
Power: 116 bhp
Torque: 250 Nm
Transmission: 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic
For performance enthusiasts, Hyundai also offers the Creta N Line, which shares the Kappa Turbo GDi petrol engine and offers both 6-speed manual and 7-speed DCT options. The N Line delivers a more dynamic driving experience while retaining the comfort and utility of the standard model.
Conclusion: Creta’s Reign Continues
With its best-selling status in June 2025, the Hyundai Creta continues to demonstrate why it is one of India’s most trusted and successful SUVs. Celebrating a decade of excellence, Hyundai shows no signs of slowing down—offering both ICE and EV options to cater to the evolving needs of Indian car buyers.
