The second-generation Creta was launched in 2020, coming with a new design, packed to the gills with features and creature comforts, and aggressive pricing. This makes the Hyundai the go-to-buy in the segment. It also has a ridiculous amount of aftermarket customization options with third party brands available to fulfil mostly anything you can dream of. Today we came across this Creta EX model which gets cruise-control fitted via the aftermarket.

The video has been uploaded by Technical bhopal on YouTube. The Hyundai Creta in the video is the EX variant which is getting a few aftermarket parts added. The compact SUV gets an OEM cruise control system retrofitted to it with the controls being added to the steering wheel. After installing the steering wheel back, we can see the cruise control and other new steering mounted controls working for the MID and user settings.
