In this blog, EVJoints brings you an in-depth analysis of factors contributing to range anxiety, including the Hyundai Creta Electric’s battery capacity, range, and charging options. The blog also covers pricing and highlights key features.
Battery & Range:
The Hyundai Creta Electric comes in 2 battery options: 42 kWh, which offers a range of 390 km, and 51.4 kWh, which offers a range of 473 km. The battery has been placed on the car’s floor bed which provides a low centre of gravity. This allows for a very composed ride on the highways.
The car’s battery management system (BMS) has been carried over from the premium Hyundai IONIQ 5.
The Creta EV comes with a battery warranty of 8 years. The warranty is transferable to a second owner for the remaining warranty period.
Charging Time, Options & Connectors:
Both battery variants of the Hyundai Creta Electric can charge from 10-80% in 58 minutes using a CCS2 DC fast charger at public charging stations. They are also compatible with Type 2 chargers at public EV charging stations for slower charging. With an 11kW AC home charger, the 42 kWh battery variant of Creta EV can charge from 10-100% in 4 hours, and the 51.4 kWh variant can charge from 10-100% in 4 hours 50 minutes.
The car’s charging port is located in the front, beneath the Hyundai logo in the centre.
