Is it priced to offer better value than the performance-packed variants of the Skoda Kushaq, Volkswagen Taigun and Kia Seltos?

Creta N Line vs Kushaq vs Taigun GT vs Seltos

The newly introduced Hyundai Creta N Line in India is only available with a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine. This particular type of engine is also offered by three other models in the compact SUV segment – Volkswagen Taigun, Skoda Kushaq and Kia Seltos. All four make 150 PS or more, and get both manual and automatic transmissions.

 Kia Seltos Engine

  • Kia offers this engine from the Seltos mid-spec variant onwards and is the most affordable option here, while the Creta N Line has the highest entry price. 

  • The Hyundai Creta N Line and Kia Seltos have the same engine which makes 160 PS and 253 Nm. However, the Seltos gets an iMT (manual without clutch pedal) instead of a regular manual setup like the other models on this list.

  • Between the Volkswagen Taigun and Skoda Kushaq twins with the same 150 PS 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine, the latter offers it at a lower entry price.

  • Unlike the Hyundai-Kia power unit, the VW-Skoda engine also comes with cylinder deactivation technology for improved fuel efficiency. This technology allows two of the four cylinders to rest when the engine is not under load, such as while cruising at highway speeds in the highest gear.

  • The Seltos and Creta N Line are the best equipped models here with features like a panoramic sunroof, dual 10.25-inch displays, 360-degree camera and dual-zone climate control. However, only the Hyundai offers ADAS with a manual gearbox.

  • All models on this list get equipment like ventilated front seats, digital driver’s display, power-adjustable driver’s seat and six airbags.

  • While all the variants listed above cater to the enthusiast with a powerful engine and manual gearbox, only the Creta N Line gets bespoke tuning for the steering and suspension, and a dual-tip exhaust.

Monte Carlo - Rs 20.49 lakh

  • All models here offer their 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine with the choice of a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission (DCT) with paddle shifters.

  • The Taigun is the most affordable option for this powertrain combination, with the Kushaq only a little bit pricier. Both undercut the Creta N Line by nearly a lakh. However, it’s the normal Creta that has the highest entry price for this engine-gearbox setup because it only offers it with the fully loaded top variant.

2024 Hyundai Creta

  • With the automatic setup being the only option for the fully loaded Kia Seltos variants, it is a more feature-rich offering and also offers ADAS and a head-up display.

  • At the top-end, the Creta N Line is just as expensive as the Seltos X-Line while the Kushaq Monte Carlo is a tad pricier even though it is not as feature-rich as the Korean SUVs.
