Hyundai Creta N Line 2024 First Impressions | S02E14

[@rajivgarg87]

This is what a mature and unbiased review looks like. Having a favourite car brand and bashing a rival brand doesn’t help anyone. Unbiased reviews like these are rare on KZbin these days but are extremely important for larger good of car enthusiasts community.

[@S.I.M.PforSPEED]

Telling people to skip right to the end and get the summary instead of spending 40 minutes is a bold move. Views won't be counted if people only watch 10 percent of a video. This shows that they don't care much about the superficial stuff. They care about serving the audience. Hats off!!!

[@motorinc]

Um, no. Honestly, there's so much work to be done, figuring out where we're being discussed etc isn't possible for us 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@animealpha4795]

That’s not how it works bro. Even 1 second is counted as a view. What’s important is watch time, which is what percentage of the video people have watched on average. Having worked as an editor for podcasts, the usual watch time is around 20-30%, so by pushing people to the quick summary, you kinda ensure that 30% watch right off the bat and anyone watching the full episodes just adds to that watch time. Pretty genius if you ask me.

Trademark Creta owner traits: 1: Highbeam Flashing 2: Continuous Honking 3: Following too close to the vehicles infront, even on open highways. 4: Thinking of it as Paul Walker's R34 GTR in Fast 4 and driving it like that way in the city and traffic conditions 5: Window all blacked out with the tints borrowed from House Harkonnen from Dune itself so that not a single glimmer of daylight would enter that cabin. 6: Playing music so loud with the windows closed that the motorcyclists waiting at the signal nearby would get abs workout because of the bass boom. 7: Did i mention "Honking"? P.S: We never have done this and don't think we do this just because we own two Cretas lol.

[@abhinashpattanaik5109]

We actually have the 2015 1st gen Creta with the iconic 1.6CRDi motor and the 2nd gen pre facelift model with the 1.4 DCT in our family. Both have served us well till now( 1.6D Creta has done 376k kms and 1.4DCT Creta has done 48k kms). Brand Creta for the win!🔥🔥🔥🔥 The 1st gen Creta is surely the most handsome of all Cretas but the soft suspension always had given us second thoughts if you want to have some fun on highways. Its more of a cruiser. No such issues in the 2nd gen Creta. Its dynamics are in the whole another level if we compare it to the 1st gen Creta.

I have installed Coil Spring Buffer called Car Stabilizer Pro @Rs10k in my 1st gen Creta and reduced the bouncy ride. In my opinion it's the best accessory for the 1st gen Creta. Overal Height increases by 1inch and suspension becomes stiffer which can reduce the Ride Quality little bit.

I think there's a big lesson here for TATA Motors to learn. Rather than making "Personas" that nobody can remember, they should thing about making something like TATA's version of N-Line instead. I know I've seen the Altroz racer but it's not on the road yet. Their DARK pack is the best platform to make a sporty version of a Harrier or the Safari. Thanks for educating us about this kind of stuff that generally we won't be aware of. I've watched other videos on the Creta N-Line where they were getting excited by the new sporty looking diffuser & the rear spoiler, you're the only people who raised the question of practicality so I bow down to you people with respect. Anybody can get excited by things that you see for the first time but one needs the audacity to take a step back & think about it's purpose. Hat's off to you guys! Love from Bengaluru!

I recently bought an i20 n line and I totally get how that steering wheel changes the feel of what it's like to drive the car. It's a significant factor in why I've put 800km on it in 3 weeks! Hyundai gets a huge plus from me for having an option for 25 y/o enthusiasts who look at europe and their hot hatches with envy, and the n line experience has changed how I look at the brand itself.

[@akilanindia]

Another hitting it out of the park episode guys. Thanks a ton for making my Sunday. I am an owner of a Polo TSI which is closing on 11 years and want to upgrade to a spacious vehicle. I hate the looks of the Creta since the gen 2 and that hasn’t changed with the newer generation and the N line. Despite that I look past it, as I feel that it’s one of the most practical vehicle available for a user like me who is an enthusiast at heart but need to be aware of family needs and this N line seems to have made it a bit more appealing. The trouble however is the dealership experience, it’s been a month since I visited both Hyundai and Kia showrooms in town, both don’t have a turbo DCT for a TD and want me to drive a diesel MT and book the car. When Kartik mentioned about doing back to back test drives of the regular Turbo and the N line turbo, I felt really sad. The only dealerships who offered a TD of all the combinations of engine and transmission are the VAG people. They are Incredible driving machines, which doesn’t offer a peace of mind. Sucks being stuck in a limbo like this. Thanks again guys!

[@motorinc]

That’s really a pity! Test drives are a sure shot way of selling a good car. Pity. Hope you get to do it.

The way you share your experiences with the vehicles is more insightful, particularly when the back and forth kicks in. I hope this streak continues and the channel grows quantitatively, but not at the cost of the quality of your production and discussion. Also, I really hope that automakers are keeping tabs because the suggestions, expectations and ideas you pitch are more reflective of what consumers need and want. Keep up the awesome work!

[@RajatTomar-s3m]

Hi Kartikeya and Shumi, I love watching your videos to the extent that in all the years of watching KZbin videos, I think this is my first comment on a video ever. Great job, please keep it up. Please read on… One Hyundai/Kia feature that Kartikeya had pointed out in his Seltos review was the tilting seat feature. This was never spoken of after that in any of your videos (Or any other video covering the Korean cars). I am a tall (191 cm) man, and under-thigh support is a big part of seat comfort for me. I recently test drove most sedans and csuvs in the 15-20L price bracket - even went a segment up to Harrier/Octavia/Compass. I am not an enthusiastic driver and 90% of my driving is in the city. I was amazed at how much of the difference this tilty seat feature makes to the seat comfort and the fact that NO car maker has this feature other than the Koreans. Honestly, this feature made such a big difference for me that I am not sure I can even consider any car other than creta/seltos anymore. This brings me to my big grouse with the Koreans: 1. Why couldn’t they get the manual seats to also tilt? I don’t care about automatic seat adjustment, but I am having to pay for it just for this feature. 2. Because this feature is only compatible with auto seats, I am having to pay extra towards ADAS also. In context of this video, I’ll have to choose the N10 just because of the tilty seat. There is no version of seltos/creta which gets auto seats but no ADAS. It’s worse with Seltos. I can’t get tilty seat with an IVT gearbox at all! 3. Why can’t this be brought in the Verna? It’s just a perfect car I thought. Not even the top version of Verna gets this! When you’re driving at 20 kph 90% of the times (true for most of the people), ergonomics and driver / passenger comfort become way more important than the extent to which these things are being covered by the media presently. I hope you spend a little (just a little more) time in discussing comfort and ergonomics.

[@motorinc]

Hullo! Just skipping to the 8 way adjustable electric seat - it is available with the SX O with the IVT. We checked the brochure too. Please let us know if there’s anything we could help with.

It really feels like am sitting with my like-minded car enthusiast friends having a chat without feeling left out. Its so relatable to the granularity Kartikeya talks about when he is referring to the car, its so satisfying. And Shumi's humor too almost everytime is like a "BURN!" and cracks me up alot. Thanks alot team. And obviously, Kartikeya and Shumi. Have been watching their reviews from a decade when I was just outta college or got my first car or motorcycle and they too have really grown in their story telling and making auto journalism as interesting as being a kid in a candy store if I were to express this. I am gonna keep waiting for Renault to drop their new Duster and hear these gentlemen do a Motorinc First session on the same, even the Bigster for that matter.

[@SumanthMRao]

​​​​​@@SiddharajSolanki I've done quite a few long road trips. The experience has been nothing short of amazing so far. Nothing really to complain. About ADAS, it actually works very well in all scenarios if you are a laid back driver. If you are a spirited driver and you do quick overtakes squeezing through trucks on highways, keeping FCA on is a big NO because it will not know that you are about to change lane so it will slow down the car abruptly. I personally switch FCA on and off based on my mood on a given trip (there's a shortcut button on the steering wheel to go the FCA menu quickly). In rush hour city traffic I keep it off because even though it effectively avoids forward collision, the strong braking might result in someone tailending you😅. I keep all other ADAS features always on. Quite handy.

A brilliant one, Kartikeya and Shumi...I get what Kartikeya is bringing to the table about the small step-up by Hyundai....I had the 2001 Hyundai Accent...I bought mine about 2 years after it was launched...the initial cars had very comfortable " suspension, playing possibly to the larger public demand for "maska-maafik" comfort...but at the same time, they were becoming wallowy boats, the tail tipping backwards, the steering consequently going too light for control , a frightening experience...by the time I got mine, Hyundai had worked it out, the ride was firm and flat, the control in corners simply perfect, with the independent rear suspension delivering comfort and control...I had great fun with it..then they stiffened it too much, became hard and uncomfortable, and by the time the first Verna came along, they went back and had to spend five years getting good suspension back...same with the Creta....I didn't buy the Creta as it was a throwback to the first Accents...they then got it right...the market buys their first choice, they know their customer base well..I just think the middle set of cars from Hyundai are best, and safer...looking forward as you are, Kartikeya, to that improved Verna and Creta....maybe it will get me back to the Hyundai fold after a long absence, due to uninspiring cars in the interregnum... After all, I retained my Accent for 22 years....let it go to a friend who now enjoys it as I did..

Inside cabin is light coloured feels more lively n fresh and is less claustrophobic 4. Engine setup is same. You get same level of matrix performance.

Thoroughly enjoying the banter between you two. Your take on automotive reviews is so refreshing as compared to other reviewers from other auto journalists who are noisy and busy. I have one question about 18 inch wheels and that is about the tyre height. A lower side profile often results in tyre sidewall damage or even a bent rim on a bad road. This was a huge issue on my C Class with 19 inch wheels and even my Ecosport with 17 inch wheels with 205/50 tyres. After numerous tyre replacements and 2 bent rims needing replacement, I couldn’t get around the problem on the C Class and sold it. For Ecosport I shifted to 215/55 to solve the problem which worked. Having learned the hard way, I am very weary of anything larger than 16 inch wheels. What do you think?

[@motorinc]

Hullo! Honestly - 17s is the sweetest spot, 18s is the furthest we’d go. And 19s - 😬. What happened with you is the nightmare. So, we aren’t worried about these 18s - but we wouldn’t go for a more aggressive profile for sure. Hope that helps!

Brilliant guys these two.

Thank you for joining us @sumuqh.

[@shaileshgoswami1236]

Do you think this variant can be compared to a Harrier dark in its price range? If yes, which would be a better driver's car with practicality ?

[@zabuzamomochiakatsuki]

I am "really" glad I got to see this on Sunday morning...🙂

[@motorinc]

Really really happy to hear that!

[@aadityaacharya4]

Which one has the best steering and ride quality for Indian roads. Not talking about engines or power here. Creta nline vs taigun gt vs honda elevate vs hyryder /vitara.

[@IronLad]

29:35 yep vernan line 😂❤❤ 31:54 verna n ka vernan ho chuka hai guys ❤

[@motorinc]

😂🤔

[@siddeshh]

28:33 it’s surprising Shumi mentioned the Delica knowing the fact that hardly anyone in India knows what a Delica is. But people have forgotten that the Delica was once sold in India as a rebadged van. And I’m pretty sure people have also forgotten the rebadged version of that van which I’m talking about.

Good one!

Can i do this for Hindi Audiance. Impressed with your approach. Drove n line i20 not buying for safety reasons. I enjoy my xuv and Ritz for powerful driving. Drove 120 plus cars. Have build good understanding. A RE Lover too. May soon test creata. Tested Grand Vitara first suzuki enjoyed after long time. Swift felt unimpressive, so was normal i20. The story continues....

[@addygoesboom]

Concise and useful information about the experience along with sarcasm, jokes and puns. Absolute perfection as always! 😅

[@tanmaymishra8919]

@karthikeya @schumi What a great conversation woah..made my Sunday special. You guys have discussed every pro(s)and con(s) possible in the best way possible. I have recently purchased a manual i20 nline manual transmission and it’s my humble request to you guys to make a review of the manual transmission version. Because there is day/night difference between the dct i20 nline and the manual one.❤

[@motorinc]

Oh! Lucky you! That was a very welcome addition to the line up! Thanks for sharing your garage with us!

[@smalltowner6136]

One word about its main competion, the VW twins would have been nice. One would really like to know which is a better car interms of performance and handling?

Thank you so much Tanishk!

I have the first generation Creta, and I have been driving it for about 8 years now.--it had very few ageing issues, otheriwse it's a nice and practical car overall. I'm now planning to buy a new car, AT for sure. Loved Kushaq test-drive. I'll have to look at Seltos too. I waited for N-Line, but my first impression was that it's too sporty for me. I'm in dilemma whether to consider a Hyundai Creta again. It's now Seltos GTX vs Creta N-line vs Kushaq 1.5 DCT for me. :)

[@motorinc]

Drive the N Line before you decide!

[@bhushandhonde8212]

Is Creta N Line is fun to drive or Kushaq 1.5 DSG?

[@SujitJadhavIN]

I am waiting for the answer too

[@IronLad]

30:20 the real bigshot suggestion Will be to bring i20 N 1.5 turbo in india. In 15lkh It has .launch control . Better transmission . Insane exhaust . Insane suspension . Insane tyres . Adas These are very unique performance and experience upliftment features absent in indian hithatches In 15lkh. It would be a hot hatch hit

[@atharva2122]

Talking about enthusiast offerings, will shumi be checking out the NX 500

[@motorinc]

He wants to for sure!

[@vardanrathi7777]

First saw the Creta N Line at Surat Auto Expo day before yesterday. Took a test drive yesterday and I completely agree with KS! Straightaway a better product than the regular Creta. Also, this engine definitely performs better with its own gearing brain, so don't take the manual. DCT makes the ride much better. Also, the riding modes are more upshift based than downshft based.....which means, in the S mode, RPMs are held for much longer before upshifting than the D mode where upshifts are relatively quick. Also, this front grill looks way better than that of the regular Creta.

[@motorinc]

Hullo again VR! Kartikeya might reach out to you for pointers! 😆

[@vardanrathi7777]

@@motorinc Haha! Just sharing my 2 cents as an additional info!

[@jaswanths4326]

I thought the whole point of matte finish was less maintenance cos the scratches wont show.

[@motorinc]

Yikes! Nope. It’s just cool looking!

[@supdasaaf]

All things appreciated, especially when I am serious to buy a Creta and stuck between N8 (Auto IVT) SX(O) I guess and SX (O) Tech or something...N Line looks good but not sure how fair i will be after I buy one... And yes I split this podcast of yours in three parts, lets start with the last part first (18 or so mins) during shower 😅, first part in Vande Bharat and midway in my XUV 500.

[@motorinc]

Thank you @supdasaaf! Glad to hear that. Let us know how you like it when you get it.

[@supdasaaf]

[@skms7128]

Creta facelift or creta n line which is better?

[@vivekanandamohandas]

Does the DCT gearbox in manual mode hold a gear?

[@tanmoym87]

Thanks for making my Sunday better. Also appreciate the suggestion to test drive both the Creta and the N Line Version back-to-back.

[@motorinc]

Let us know if you do!

[@jainikshah8447]

Kartik and Shumi you're doing a wonderful job of reviewing cars on Indian roads, Shumi's dad jokes included. As a hospitality professional i know first hand how difficult it is to get good feedback to keep up the good work. Keep up the good work. If you can please review the Ionic 5 N Line. That is the benchmark N Line. You could also make a short video available where people with less time can only watch a summary.

[@motorinc]

Thanks @jainikshah8447! And request noted. Regarding the summary, we tried uploading the summary as a separate video but decided that chapters worked better instead. 😊

[@Dheeraj_Menon]

Considering how much love you guys have for Verna, I really wish you guys make a detailed impression of the Verna for us

What is the xpulse and Himalayan equivalent in cars under 10 lakhs?

[@manishranjan8985]

Please suggest me whether I should go for N8 manual or dct. Also if N10, manual or automatic. And if N10 manual,then it would be wise to go for extended warranty.

[@motorinc]

Please pick the DCT. And get the extended warranty for your peace of mind!

[@Happybellyeats]

Hi ,i know im out of context on this one but I really am confused between ather 450x and dio 125cc in smart variant, im very confused which to buy seeing its maintainence, performance and longitivity🥺would be really happy if you would help me 😅as i loved ur honest review but EV has its own damages

[@motorinc]

What are going to use it for - and how much do you think you’ll ride it, say, every month @Happkybellyeats?

[@ashritasathvik9038]

Dear motorinc, can you please suggest me a car for a beginner for city use under 10-11 lakhs on road? (Automatic preferred) thank you.

[@7oa178]

I’m waiting for thar 5 door. Still can’t decide if I’m going to get Creta n line or thar 5 door. Very confusing. Creta n line and thar 5 door will probably price very similarly. But thar 5 door will have a bigger engine and more power while in fuel efficiency Creta n line would be better. Creta n line would also offer better interior and offer better ease of driving in traffic. But thar will be capable off the road and more reliable overall. Creta n line don’t have 4x4. While thar 5 door will have it. In terms of looks both looks good in there own way. Creta n line is futuristic and modern but after 10 years the Creta n line looks won’t be much a of looker as it is now cause newer models will outshine it. Hyundai cars are never known to age well in terms of looks. While thar has a classic look which age well and will always look good no matter how old it is. But thar don’t have panaromic sunroof, posh interiors like Creta n line. Very difficult to choose which car should I Get.
