A notable digital artist has come up with an attractive iteration of the Hyundai Creta facelift as it has been revealed in official teasers. The mid-cycle facelift for the nation’s most beloved compact SUV is set to make its debut on January 16. These digital renderings come after a series of leaked spy shots surfaced online recently. It’s important to mention that the India-specific Creta facelift differs from the global version, lacking the Tucson-like facade. Instead, it adopts a more robust front fascia, in line with the carmaker’s ‘Sensuous Sportiness’ theme. Let us take a look at the details of this latest illustration.

Hyundai Creta Facelift Digitally Revealed
This version comes from Bagrawala Designs on YouTube. The designer has taken inspiration from the recently launched official teasers from the Korean carmaker. The front fascia gets almost H-shaped LED DRLs reminiscent of the Exter, a full-width LED light bar, a large square front grille with the headlamps positioned on the extreme edges of the bumper, etc. I specifically like the rugged skid plate. It accentuates the overall road presence of the mid-size SUV. In fact, the Hyundai logo has also been finished in dark chrome to integrate into the grille.

Moving down the sides, I appreciate the new and elegant alloy wheel design. There is also a sturdy side body skirting. Interestingly, the unique texture on the C pillars continues from the existing model. The roof rails highlight the utilitarian nature of the SUV. At the rear, there is a connected LED taillamp cluster joined by an LED light bar. This has become a tradition in modern cars in general, and Hyundai cars in particular. The shark fin antenna and roof spoiler look neat too. Finally, the rugged nature shines through with a solid skid plate on the sporty rear bumper. All in all, this looks quite a realistic rendition of the upcoming mid-size SUV.
