Hyundai is responsible for many impressive products of late. Its latest Creta and Kona, for example, are praiseworthy contributions to the burgeoning compact sport-utility vehicle and crossover categories.

Controversial looks , combined with versatile packaging, good build quality and decent ground clearance make them easy to recommend. The Creta is also among a few that can still be had with a frugal diesel option.

First thing you’ll notice is that grille. Grater-like in execution, it fills a rear-view mirror with a menacing expression. The illuminated slits above the headlamps gives the model a face not unlike that of a serpent’s. Not everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s a sure-fire conversation-starter. The side and rear profiles of the Hyundai are far more conventional, with ample proportions and strong character lines.

If the interior has an antiquated charm about it, then so does the engine. It’s that tried-and-tested 2.2-litre, turbocharged-diesel mill. The four-cylinder unit wears the internal designation of Smartstream D4HE and it outputs 148kW and 441Nm, which is marginally more than the previous version delivered. Because the motor employs an aluminium block, it is purportedly 19.5kg lighter than the source featured in the predecessor. We achieved a best consumption figure of 8.1l/100km.
