Hyundai has launched special editions on the HB20,
HB20S and Creta in the Brazilian market. Called the 1 million edition, these
special editions celebrate the production of 1 million vehicles at the factory
in Piracicaba, São Paulo. The special edition models will be available from the
second half of August and will have a total production run of 4,500 units:
2,000 of the Creta, 1,200 of the HB20 and 1,300 of the HB20S. Prices are yet to
be disclosed.
The Hyundai Creta 1 million edition gets the Hyundai
Smart Band, which is a fitness band with integrated keyless entry. Users can
track their steps, distance and calories using a smartphone application and
also get their call notifications and alarms using this band. Hyundai Motor
India already offers this Smart Band as standard on the top-end Creta SX(O)
variant.
Based on the 'Pulse Plus' variant, the exterior sees
LED daytime running lights, projector headlamps, 17-inch alloy wheels, a
'dark-chrome' grille and trunk garnish and chrome-finished door handles. The
special edition gets a commemorative 1 million badge on the fenders as well.
Inside, there are '1 million' embossed door sills, and the leather seats are
finished in a 'Beige Sahara' colour; the dashboard sees the inclusion of a
7.0-inch touchscreen entertainment system with DVD player.
The Creta 1 million special edition is available
only with the 1.6-liter Gamma petrol engine paired with a 6-speed automatic
transmission. In the Indian market, Hyundai launched the facelifted
Creta just back in May this year. However, given that the carmaker is
celebrating its 20th anniversary in the country, special editions could be
introduced to drive up sales during the festive season.
