If you are in the market for a sensible, feature-loaded family SUV, the Hyundai Creta is likely to be high on your list of options. However, if you are a petrolhead or an enthusiast, the newly launched Creta N Line might pique your interest. It now gets added styling and improved driving dynamics. However, does the new Creta N Line offer enough to convince you to choose it over the Creta’s regular turbo variants? That’s precisely what we will unpack in this first impressions review. So, let’s get going...

DESIGN & FEATURES

One of the biggest distinguishing factors between the N Line range of cars and the regular versions is design, beginning with the front. The grille now sits lower, with a striking one-piece DRL strip dominating the entire upper half. In my opinion, this particular section of the front-end exhibits Range Rover Sport vibes and looks pretty cool. It also gets new, N Line-specific 18-inch alloy wheels, which give it a breath of fresh air. Plus, there are contrasting red accents throughout the entire length of the car, converging at the rear diffuser. The rear of the car, on the other hand, features three main changes in comparison to that of the regular version – a double-stacked rear spoiler, chrome-plated dual-exhaust tips, and, as mentioned, a rear diffuser. I have been kind of on the fence about the design of the recently launched Creta facelift, but I think that the new N Line is the most handsome Creta variant to date.
