Hyundai Creta electric | Long term report #2

The Creta electric has now settled into our long-term fleet, and what stands out this month is how confidently it blends into everyday life. It is not here to shock or stun. Instead, it slots itself seamlessly into your commute and almost dares you to forget that it runs on electrons.

CITY LIFE: CALM, CONSISTENT, CAPABLE 

Mumbai traffic has a way of testing patience, but the Creta Electric plays the perfect counterbalance. The motor delivers its power in a clean, composed manner, and its suspension continues to impress over broken tarmac and monsoon leftovers. Even during peak-hour chaos, the refinement inside the cabin creates a bubble of quiet that makes long commutes a lot more bearable.

INSIDE STORY: THE HYUNDAI FORMULA STILL WORKS 

The cabin remains one of the Creta Electric’s strongest points. Everything feels familiar, intuitive, and thoughtfully positioned. It is not trying to overwhelm you with futuristic gimmicks and that actually works in its favour. However, features like wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto continue to be strangely absent for a car in 2025, and that omission is becoming harder to ignore each month.

VERDICT: A SENSIBLE STEP INTO EV LIFE

 The Creta Electric is shaping up to be the EV most people will choose simply because it asks for no adjustment period. It behaves like a Creta, just quieter and smoother. No drama, no intimidation, no learning curve. For many buyers, especially in a city like Mumbai, that familiarity might be exactly what makes the leap to electric finally feel easy.
