Creta EV, Carens EV Spied Together
With mass market products like Creta EV and Carens EV, Hyundai and Kia will be gearing up for the tough competition ahead
In the next few years, the EV segment will witness several new product launches from most of the leading brands. For the mainstream EV market, Hyundai and Kia will be placing their bets initially on Creta EV and Carens EV. These were recently spotted on road tests in Varanasi by automotive enthusiast Abhishek.
Kia Carens EV – What to expect?
Carens EV will be based on the ICE Carens facelift model that is expected to arrive in mid-2025. Spy shots reveal that Carens EV has new alloy wheels. Since it will be based on the ICE facelift model, some changes are expected across the front fascia. Much of the sheet metal will be common for both Carens EV and ICE Carens facelift. An earlier test vehicle was spotted with a new, more robust suspension setup. That will be necessary to bear the load of the battery pack.
Kia Carens EV Spied
To expand its market reach, Carens EV is expected to be offered in both 6-seater and 7-seater options. Features on the inside will be borrowed mostly from the ICE model. The Carens facelift has a number of exterior and interior features similar to the EV5. Some key highlights include dual 10.25-inch screens, a 360° camera and a panoramic sunroof. Carens EV will be getting a comprehensive range of ADAS features.
Hyundai Creta EV – Key features
As evident from the test vehicle, Creta EV has the same silhouette as that of the ICE variant. However, some distinctive features are evident such as the new design for the alloy wheels. These are aerodynamic, low drag units that can boost performance and range. Changes are likely at the front as well. Creta EV will be getting a closed-off grille and exclusive badging to highlight its electric underpinnings.
Hyundai Creta EV Spied
Earlier spy shots had revealed that Creta EV will be getting a new circular steering wheel with a 3-spoke design. One of the test vehicles was seen with distinctive ‘CRETA electric’ badging on the upholstery. To achieve a differentiation with the ICE mode, Creta EV is expected to get new interior theme options. Choices for the ambient lighting can also be more dynamic in comparison to the ICE model.
Equipment list for Creta EV will be largely the same as that of the ICE model. However, some new features are likely, especially the ones possible only with an electric car. This approach may also be aimed at motivating potential customers to make the switch to electric. Features borrowed from the ICE variant will include dual 10.25-inch screens, front ventilated seats and panoramic sunroof. Creta EV will have leather wrapped steering wheel, electric parking brake with auto hold, USB ports and wireless charger.
Hyundai Creta EV is expected to get a 45-kWh battery pack, linked to a 138 hp electric motor. Certified range could be around 450 km, whereas real-world range may be approximately 350 km. It is highly likely that the powertrain option could be common for Creta EV and Carens EV. More

The central console of the test mule is still a work in progress setup, but it’s evident that most of the panel buttons are borrowed from the ICE Creta. Presence of physical buttons on the central console makes practical sense, although the polished interior aesthetics are slightly compromised in the process.

Equipment list
Creta EV will borrow most of the equipment from the ICE Creta. The latter has dual-tone interiors, leather wrapped steering wheel and gear knob and 8-way power adjustable driver seat. Depending on the variant, upholstery options include fabric and leatherette. Creta EV will get a panoramic sunroof, dual-zone automatic temperature control, front ventilated seats and electric parking brake with auto hold.

Hyundai Creta EV TestingHyundai Creta EV Spy Shots from Hyderabad Reveal Key Design Features – Launch expected later this year or early next year
Hyundai’s highly anticipated Creta EV has been spotted testing in Hyderabad, adding to the growing excitement around the SUV’s upcoming launch. These latest spy shots provide a glimpse into the design and aerodynamic improvements of the electric version of Hyundai’s best-selling SUV. Expected to launch either later this year or in early 2025, the Creta EV aims to set a new standard in the compact electric SUV segment.
Hyundai Creta EV – Core Design and Aero Optimizations
While heavily camouflaged, the overall profile of the Creta EV remains consistent with its ICE counterpart. The EV-specific design elements are expected to include a front-mounted charging port and newly designed aero alloy wheels. These wheels, in particular, are critical for reducing the SUV’s drag coefficient, enhancing its range while also providing a visually distinct appeal. The rear of the Creta EV is likely to feature connected LED tail lamps, adding to the futuristic design.

The test mules spied in Hyderabad sport significant camouflage, but the core body structure remains true to the Creta’s signature SUV stance. The front and rear lighting elements are mostly obscured, but the horizontal LED positioning lamps and sequential turn indicators could be seen peeking through the camo. Additionally, the bonnet maintains a chiselled design, reinforcing the sporty appeal of the Creta.
The spy shots also hint at Hyundai’s approach of carrying forward much of the facelifted ICE Creta’s design cues into the EV version. The front fascia is expected to feature EV-specific touches to distinguish it from the petrol and diesel variants. Latest spy shots are credited to automotive enthusiast Nizam.

Interiors and Technology

Additionally, the Creta EV is likely to come with ADAS technology, as seen in earlier spy shots with a radar module mounted on the bumper.

The Hyundai Creta EV is expected to feature a 45-kWh battery pack, with an estimated range of around 450 km on a single charge.

Creta EV will also feature an advanced regenerative braking system, contributing to improved range and efficiency.

It will also rival upcoming e-SUVs like Mahindra BE.05, and Maruti eVX. Hyundai’s decision to build the Creta EV on the same platform as the ICE Creta could help the automaker maintain competitive pricing, making it a viable choice for EV buyers looking for range, performance, and brand reliability.
