Upcoming Hyundai Creta CNG Engine
The Upcoming Hyundai Creta CNG is likely to retain the same engine options as the current model, which are:
- a 1.5-liter petrol engine with natural aspirated that generates 144 Nm of torque and 115 PS of power. It is connected to either a CVT automatic transmission or a 6-speed manual transmission.
- a 1.4-liter petrol turbocharged engine with 140 PS and 242 Nm of torque. Either a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed DCT automatic transmission is connected to it.
- a 1.5-liter diesel engine that produces 250 Nm of torque and 115 PS of power. It is connected to either a 6-speed torque converter automatic transmission or a 6-speed manual transmission.
The main highlight of the facelifted Creta will be the introduction of a CNG option for the 1.5-litre petrol engine. This will make the Creta more economical and eco-friendly, as well as cater to the customers who prefer CNG over petrol or diesel. The CNG kit will be factory-fitted and will come with a warranty from Hyundai. The power and torque figures of the CNG variant are not yet revealed, but they are expected to be slightly lower than the petrol variant.
Upcoming Hyundai Creta CNG Mileage
The Upcoming Hyundai Creta CNG is expected to offer improved mileage figures compared to the current model, thanks to some aerodynamic tweaks and weight reduction measures. The current model has the following mileage figures as per ARAI:
| Fuel Type | Transmission | Mileage |
|---|---|---|
| Petrol | Manual | 16.8 kmpl |
| Petrol | CVT | 16.8 kmpl |
| Petrol | DCT | 16.8 kmpl |
| Diesel | Manual | 21.4 kmpl |
| Diesel | Automatic | 18.5 kmpl |
The mileage figures of the CNG variant are not yet disclosed, but they are expected to be significantly higher than the petrol variant, as CNG is a cheaper and cleaner fuel. According to some sources, the CNG variant could offer a mileage of around 28 kmpl, which would make it one of the most fuel-efficient SUVs in India.
Conclusion
