Intro

Hyundai has added new entry-level and mid-range trims to the Creta Electric lineup in India, making the Hyundai Creta Electric price more affordable for value-conscious buyers. In simple terms, there’s now a 42 kWh battery option and a 51.4 kWh pack for longer trips – clearer choices for different needs.

What’s new and why it matters

• New trims bookend the range, so you can start with essentials, add range or climb to more features without being forced into top spec.
• The 51.4 kWh pack now has higher claimed range on select trims, so more highway confidence and fewer charging stops.
• With a lower starting price on paper, Creta Electric joins the conversation around “electric SUV under 20 lakh,” even as on-road prices vary by city.

Powertrain and range options

• Two clear battery routes: a value-first 42 kWh and a 51.4 kWh pack for range peace of mind. If weekend getaways or intercity trips are your norm, the bigger pack will feel like less planning and more driving.
• Output varies by pack, so it’s built for city calm and confident overtakes.

Features where it matters

• Essentials where you expect them – safety basics across the range, with conveniences like ventilated seats higher up. It’s a sensible spread, not a gimmick list.
• The new mid-band trims are the sweet spot: solid features without stretching to the very top, which is where most value hunters end up anyway.

Price and positioning

• Ex-showroom prices start from high teens to mid-20s (lakh), on-road prices vary by state. The new entry and mid trims lower the barrier while keeping clear upgrade paths.
• The wider range helps Hyundai compete head-on with mass-market EVs that win on value, not just badges.

Closing note

By adding entry and mid trims, Hyundai makes the Creta Electric more considerate – and more livable. For most buyers, a mid-spec trim with the bigger pack looks like the best combination of price, range and everyday comfort.
