India’s second largest automaker is particularly happy with the success of its latest offering, the recently launched Hyundai Creta compact SUV. The car received an overwhelming response that also motivated its competitors in updating their contenders (case-in-point Mahindra XUV500 AT). Sticking to its hot streak, the Korean automaker has lined up a range of new products that might make their way onto the Indian streets. So let’s take a look at the upcoming cars of Hyundai.
