Honda Elevate vs Hyundai Creta : The year 2025 sees a plethora of options in the midsize SUV segment in India.Honda Elevate and Hyundai Creta are two names that rankle for attention. Creta is one of the strongest contenders in this segment, serving the customer for years, while Elevate is the latest offering from Honda. Both are feature-loaded SUVs with louder styling and heart-thumping performance. But if one decides on buying, which one offers better value on the SUV between these two? Let’s explore.
Design and Road Presence
Boldly stands upright with an SUV look, the Elevate . Big grille, strong body lines, and cleanly cut LED lights allow an extremely modern appeal, though it will be more on the conservative box-on-wheels sort of design space. The 2024 facelift gets the Hyundai Creta sleeker overall styling, new LED DRLs, and gives that front end a premium feel. This is also the reason why Creta feels increasingly futuristic and stylish. So, for rugged looks, Elevate fits in well. For that modern stylish look, the Creta takes the crown.
Interior and Features
The Creta reigns supreme in terms of features. A good panoramic sunroof, 360-degree camera, ADAS inclusion, and ventilated seats with a sizeable 10.25-inch touchscreen all come as part of the Creta package. The Elevation receives 10.25-inch infotainment with sunroof, wireless Android Auto and Apple Car Play, and ADAS in higher variants, whereas it misses on the 360-degree camera and ventilated seats. With regard to quality and in-cabin technology, Creta will feel far more premium and loaded.
Performance and Engine Options
The list of engines available for the Hyundai Creta includes 1.5L petrol, 1.5L diesel, and 1.5L turbo-petrol engines with both manual and automatic options. On the very short list of engines offered by the Honda Elevate, though, there is but a single 1.5-liter petrol engine available with both manual and CVT. Elevate engines are smooth and refined. However, the diesel or turbo-petrol options would provide more powertrain flexibility and better torque.
Price and Value
The price of the Honda Elevate is just a little lower, being attractive to buyers looking for something trustworthy but simple in an SUV. The highest variants of the Hyundai Creta command a price higher than any model of the Elevate, but this price does seem to be justified with loads of tech and other options.
