New-Gen Hyundai Creta Features: Improved ADAS Suite
Currently, the Creta offers a level-2 suite with 20 features. The next-gen model is expected to get a more extensive level-2+ suite. It is expected to borrow the suite from the new Seltos, which gets 28 features. Some of the expected assists include navigation-based smart cruise control, frontal collision warning, junction-crossing, and a few more.
New Screens
The biggest change inside the cabin would be the new PLEOS infotainment screen. Hyundai has showcased this infotainment system in some of its international models, and the Creta is expected to benefit from the same. The screen is expected to be a massive unit, probably bigger than 15 inches. With this system, new features can be installed via OTA updates. And these updates aren’t just limited to software, but also mechanical (for instance, suspension).
Moreover, the current driver’s display unit could be replaced by a slimmer unit. The display would showcase the basic information, and the majority of the functions will be integrated into the infotainment system
Finally Gets HUD & Wireless Phone Connectivity
At the moment, the top model of the Creta misses out on two features – HUD and wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay. You need an additional adapter for wireless connectivity. Things could finally change with the new model. Kia offers these features on the new Seltos, so it is likely that the Creta gets them as well. Hyundai offers wireless connectivity only on the lower variants, and now it could become standard across most variants.
