Hyundai has introduced a new variant of the Hyundai
Creta named ‘Hyundai Creta Sport’ in Brazil. The Hyundai Creta Sport has the
styling to justify the suffix. Its radiator grille has a gloss black border,
and a uniquely styled air dam grille and a gloss black skid plate.
Changes to
the profile include glow black ORVMs and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. At the
rear, gloss black skid plate and new rear spoiler – also in gloss black – add
to the style. Up top, the roof bars and the shark fin antenna are in gloss
black.
Inside, the Hyundai Creta Sport has an all-black
cabin. Black leather and fabric seats, black headliner and 7-inch infotainment
system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are the key features Hyundai
mentions. Safety highlights include front airbags, Electronic Stability
Control, Traction Control and Hill-Start Assist control.
Under the hood,
there’s the 2.0-litre 16V flex-fuel engine. It develops 156 hp and 187 Nm of torque running on petrol and 166 hp and 201 Nm of torque running on diesel. A 6-speed automatic transmission
sends the drive to the wheels.
The Hyundai Creta Sport will go on sale in Brazil in
November. Hyundai hasn’t announced the price, a figure between R$ 95,000 and R$ 98,000 is expected.
