Living with the Hyundai Creta Diesel in 2025 continues to be a rewarding experience for those who value torque-rich performance, long-distance efficiency, and refined driving. Powered by a 1.5L CRDi diesel engine producing 116 PS and 250 Nm torque, the Creta Diesel impresses with strong low-end grunt and excellent mid-range pull, making it ideal for highway cruising and city overtakes alike. Whether you choose the 6-speed manual or the 6-speed torque converter automatic, both gearboxes deliver smooth, linear power delivery that suits both calm and spirited driving styles.
Fuel Efficiency: Still a Big Plus
One of the biggest reasons to stick with diesel in 2025 is the fuel economy, and the Creta Diesel delivers on that front. In real-world mixed driving, owners report 18–20 km/l on highways and 14–16 km/l in city traffic, depending on driving style and load. The 50-liter tank capacity easily gives you over 800 km range on a full tank, making it perfect for frequent travelers or long commutes.
Comfort, Features & Daily Convenience
Over long-term use, the Creta’s suspension setup shows its strengths — it strikes a balance between comfort and handling. Bumps and potholes are absorbed well, and highway stability remains confidence-inspiring. The ventilated seats, 10.25-inch touchscreen with wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, panoramic sunroof, and Bose sound system make the cabin feel premium and future-ready. Diesel noise insulation has also improved, especially in the latest facelifted models, offering a more refined ride inside.
Ownership Cost & Maintenance
Diesel engines do have slightly higher maintenance costs compared to petrol, but Hyundai’s widespread service network, affordable service plans, and strong resale value for diesel variants help offset that. The diesel engine has proven to be reliable over the years, and the 5-year warranty (with optional extended packages) gives peace of mind.
Is the Hyundai Creta Diesel Still Worth It in 2025?
Absolutely if you’re a high-mileage driver, regular highway user, or someone who prioritizes torque and fuel efficiency, the Hyundai Creta Diesel continues to make a strong case for itself. With its punchy performance, comfortable ride, feature-loaded cabin, and excellent fuel economy, it remains one of the most practical and value-rich diesel SUVs in India today even in an era dominated by petrol and hybrid alternatives.
