The CRETA has outstanding NVH characteristics by the use of enhanced sound absorption materials and improved engineering design of engine, transmission and body structural parts. Multiple measures have been taken to contain NVH to barely perceptible trace levels like higher thickness of dash panel, anti-vibration pads on floor panel, optimisation of central floor tunnel area rigidity, etc.
"Hive Structure" benefits and Highlights:
• High Body rigidity with ring structure design for enhanced structural safety, improved durability , ride and handling and improved crash performance
• Enhanced body endurance and crash performance comprising high proportion of Advanced High Strength steel (AHSS) and Ultra High Strength Steel (UHSS)
• Reinforced roof structure with multiple cross members for enhanced strength and more loading capacity
• Improved crash performance both frontal and side with addition of dash cross member, use of larger diameter weld joints and use of reinforced side members having tailor welded beams (TWB) on door panels
• Front end bolted type modular structure to reduce the maintenance cost
• Low NVH with detail optimisation of dash panel, center floor tunnel, anti-vibration pads and dash insulators.
Fluidic Sculpture 2.0 Design
CRETA design follows a premium look, based on Hyundai Motor's evolved design philosophy. Fluidic Sculpture 2.0 Design philosophy carries forward the highly acclaimed Fluidic design theme in a more refined manner thus lending a Modern and Premium touch.
It stands for futuristic and unique design expression, yet it remains uncompromised on comfort and strength. An SUV with a unique and innovative form, CRETA represents a complete package of style and performance.
Hyundai's signature ‘Fluidic Sculpture 2.0' design philosophy:
Each Hyundai vehicle has its own design theme that projects specific product design under the umbrella of Fluidic Sculpture.
