Hyundai Motor India has updated the prices of all variants of its popular SUV, the Creta. With the implementation of GST 2.0 starting on September 22, 2025, buyers can now expect savings of up to ₹70,000 on a new Creta, providing direct financial relief.
Changes in Taxes for Smaller and Mid-Size Vehicles
The updated GST structure stipulates an 18 percent tax for small petrol and petrol-hybrid vehicles. This also applies to CNG and LPG cars, provided their engine displacement is at most 1200cc and their length is under 4 meters. For diesel and hybrid vehicles, the tax rate has dropped from 28 percent to 18 percent, provided the engine is 1500cc or less and/or under 4 meters in length.
Luxury and Large Car Tax Adjustments
The tax on SUVs and larger vehicles has been set at 40 percent. This is a reduction from the prior rate, where these vehicles were subject to 28 percent GST and a 22 percent cess, which resulted in a combined tax of 50 percent. The new policy offers a 10 percent saving.
Direct Impact on Creta
The Creta, positioned in the mid-size and premium SUV categories, was previously taxed at 50%. This has now been reduced to 40%, resulting in savings for consumers. Hyundai has released the new prices for each variant, with customers seeing an average savings of around ₹70,000 per model.
