NEW DELHI: Hyundai Motor India is widening its SUV offering beyond Creta as competition intensifies, targeting combined annual sales of 2.5 lakh units from its bestselling model and the newly-launched Bayon from 2027.Hyundai Motor India MD Tarun Garg said the company sees room for both vehicles, with different features and powertrain choices helping attract distinct sets of buyers. “The whole idea is that there is enough space in the market and also new and new customer segments are emerging,” Garg said. The push comes as rivals build broader portfolios. Creta remained the bestselling individual midsize utility vehicle during Jan-Sept 2026, with over 1.4 lakh units, while Maruti Suzuki’s Grand Vitara and Victoris together sold 1.7 lakh units.Hyundai is positioning Bayon around technology adoption, while drawing on Creta’s established brand appeal and loyal customers. Bayon will offer petrol and, from Jan 2027, CNG options.
