The Hyundai Creta, a popular B-segment SUV, has finally made its way to Southeast Asia, specifically Indonesia, a year after its upgraded version was introduced in India in early 2024.
Unlike previous models, the upgraded Hyundai Creta for the Indonesian market boasts an identical design to its Indian counterpart. Hyundai has also introduced the N Line version, which sports a more athletic look for the Creta in the archipelago.

As a mid-cycle upgrade, the Hyundai Creta 2025 in Indonesia retains its dimensions, measuring 4,330 mm in length, 1,790 mm in width, 1,635 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2,610 mm.
However, the exterior design of the Hyundai Creta 2025 has undergone significant enhancements. Specifically, this B-segment SUV is outfitted with a new grille and front bumper. Additionally, it features a two-tier headlight arrangement with an upper LED daytime running light strip in the shape of the letter “L” spanning the width of the vehicle. Below this are the main headlights and two new air intakes.

The sides of the vehicle remain largely unchanged, except for the new wheel design. At the rear, the Hyundai Creta 2025 is fitted with redesigned taillights that echo the shape of the LED daytime running lights. Similar to the front bumper, the rear bumper is accented with silver trim, lending a robust appearance to the SUV.

The N Line variant takes the sporty aesthetic a notch higher with exclusive front and rear bumpers, a unique grille, and side skirts. Additionally, the N Line model is fitted with larger 18-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 215/55 R18 tires. Distinctive red accents on the front and rear bumpers, side skirts, alloy wheels, and dual exhaust pipes further differentiate the N Line model.

Not only does the Hyundai Creta 2025 in Indonesia benefit from exterior upgrades, but it also offers an enhanced interior experience. The standout feature is the large touchscreen infotainment system that integrates a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10.25-inch central display. Other notable amenities include an eight-speaker Bose sound system, ventilated front seats, wireless phone charging, and a panoramic sunroof.

Under the hood, the Hyundai Creta 2025 in Indonesia is powered by the familiar Smartstream G1.5 MPI four-cylinder engine with a displacement of 1.5 liters. This engine generates a maximum output of 113.4 horsepower and a peak torque of 144 Nm, unchanged from the previous model.
The N Line version, however, offers two engine options. The first is the aforementioned 1.5-liter engine, while the second is a turbocharged 1.5-liter Smartstream G1.5 GDI four-cylinder unit that produces 157.8 horsepower and 253 Nm of torque. The engines in the Hyundai Creta 2025 are mated to either a manual or an IVT automatic transmission, depending on the variant.
The Hyundai Creta N Line 2025 is offered with a choice of two engines.
In the Indonesian market, the Hyundai Creta 2025 is available in five variants, with prices ranging from 299.7 to 426.94 million Rupiah (approximately 473 to 674 million Vietnamese dong). Meanwhile, the Hyundai Creta N Line 2025 is offered in two variants, with prices starting from 460.5 to 507.28 million Rupiah (approximately 727 to 801 million Vietnamese dong).
Following its launch in Indonesia, the new Hyundai Creta is expected to make its way to other Southeast Asian markets, including Vietnam. In 2024, the Creta was the second best-selling model for Hyundai, with cumulative sales of 8,640 units.
