Hyundai Creta EV
Another electric SUV that has been much anticipated, the Creta EV, shall also debut in the coming months. It is expected to come with a 45kWh battery pack, as per media reports, and will share a lot of its design cues with its ICE counterpart. Keeping the costs in check, the Creta EV is likely to boast a single motor powering the front wheels, offering 138PS of power and 255Nm of torque.
Land Cruiser Prado
One of the latest entrants to join this list is the Land Cruiser Prado. Toyota is expected to launch the new Prado in the second half of calendar year 2025, after discontinuation of the SUV back in 2020. It is expected to be powered with the same 2.8-litre diesel engine that is seen on the Toyota Fortuner, mated to a 48 Volt mild hybrid system.
2025 Hyundai Tucson
A facelifted Hyundai Tucson was launched in the States a while back, and the same is expected to make its way to India in 2025. While the changes on the outside of the US-spec Tucson were noticed to be minimal, the cabin saw the return of physical controls and rotary dials for some basic functions. The new Tucson is also likely to get a new steering wheel with the four-dot Hyundai logo in the centre.
