Is the 1.5L NA petrol engine of the Creta underpowered for highway use?
The debate among car enthusiasts has been about the Hyundai Creta’s 1.5 liter naturally aspirated petrol engine. It’s fine for city driving but some users complain of being underpowered when overtaking on the highway or when the car is fully loaded. The discussion on this has led to talk about whether the Hyundai Creta should be offered with a more powerful engine as standard, given the price point of the car. Now, let's take a look at the real world performance of this engine, its strengths and weaknesses, and how it compares to expectation among buyers in this segment.
