Automatic SUVs From Hyundai India – Venue, Creta or Tucson?

In recent years, the Indian auto market has been seeing the rising popularity of automatic cars, especially in the fastest-growing SUV segment. Gone are the days when automatic SUVs are thought as a premium luxury that may cost you an arm and a leg. Time flies and there are a lot of automatic SUV cars from various carmakers that are very affordable to acquire. India’s second-largest automaker, Hyundai is one such company. If you are looking to buy a new automatic SUV from Hyundai, here’s the list of best automatic SUV cars of Hyundai with their key features, specifications and prices details.

1. Hyundai Venue

Prices: Rs 9.68 – 11.66 lakh (automatic variants)

Hyundai Venue’s roaring success is hardly deniable and one of the main reasons behind its success story is the automatic transmission-equipped Venue models. Launched in May 2019 as the company’s first foray into the sub-four-metre SUV segment, the Hyundai Venue stands among top 5 cheapest automatic SUVs in the market. The Hyundai Venue automatic makes use of a 1.0-litre Kappa turbocharged petrol engine that churns out 120 HP against 175 Nm of peak torque and comes with an option of a dual-clutch automatic transmission.

2. Hyundai Creta

Prices: Rs 15.27 - 17.53 lakh (automatic variants)

The Hyundai Creta has been an undisputed king in the SUV segment in India. It happens just the same to the second-gen Creta SUV which was just launched in the country almost a year back. The new Creta comes with modern-day design, well-loaded cabin and multiple engines and transmission options. The new-gen Hyundai Creta comes with three engine options under the hood – including a 1.5-litre Mpi petrol engine mated to a 6-speed iVT, a 1.4-litre Kappa turbocharged petrol mill coupled with a 7-speed DCT and a 1.5-litre U2 CRDi diesel motor that can be had with a 6-speed MT or a 6-speed AT unit.

3. Hyundai Tucson

Prices: Rs 22.55 - 27.33 Lakh

The last automatic Hyundai SUV in the lineup is the Hyundai Tucson which seems to gain less popularity than the two earlier siblings. That said, Tucson is still a compelling SUV from the house of Hyundai in the Indian market. The carmaker just launched the updated version of the Tucson in India last year, seeing a host of styling changes and extended feature list.

Hyundai is offering the Tucson with two engine options – a 2.0-litre petrol engine and a 2.0-litre diesel unit, both of which are BS6 compliant surely. The Hyundai Tucson is an ‘all-automatic’ SUV, which means there’s no manual transmission option available across the range. It comes with a 6-speed AT for the petrol mill while the diesel burner comes paired with an 8-speed AT unit.
