Hyundai Creata - Safety Comes First

The Hyundai Creta has been synonymousS with the idea of a family SUV in India for five years now. It is so successful that it is a regular in the country’s top ten best selling vehicles’ list with around 10,000 units leaving showroom floors every month. The mix of great features, excellent driving manners, a comfortable ride and loads of space combined with attractive styling have made it the choice of hundreds of thousands of consumers. However, there is one other factor that is just as important but not as talked about – safety. The Hyundai Creta comes loaded to the brim with safety features and the overall build quality and construction inspire tonnes of confidence.

Accidents are an unfortunate reality of our roads and India has the unfortunate tag of leading the world in road fatalities. No matter how safe a car is, it is imperative for us to do everything possible to keep ourselves away from danger. At evo India we drive all over the country and tackle the worst that Indian roads have to offer on a daily basis. Armed with that experience and our undeniable passion for driving, we often find ourselves at the centre of conversations around road safety. And that’s only understandable. Treacherous roads and tricky terrain are constant companions wherever our roadtrips take us.
