Do you want to test drive the new Hyundai Creta Electric? It's the good old Creta but electric now! That is just so wonderful for the planet and can prove to be a fuel-saving money saver.

If you are interested in getting one, or already have one, you might be thinking about what awesome stuff you can fill it with. Awesome stuff such as this is also referred to as accessories, and they can make your car drive better, or simply more fun!

Here are some of the accessories you can purchase for your Hyundai Creta Electric, and approximately how much they may cost.

Exterior Add-ons

Body Kits: Use them as a niche bumper and side skirt set that will give your car a sportier, newer look. They can completely turn around the looks of your Creta Electric. They will be heavily priced, perhaps anything between ₹15,000 to ₹35,000, or perhaps even more, depending on material and design.

Alloy Wheels: These are the new metal wheels that will take the place of your normal ones. They have plenty of fashionable designs available and can give your car a premium look. Four sets of good quality alloy wheels would cost around ₹20,000 to ₹50,000.

Chrome Accents: Chrome refers to the name describing that shining silvery material you get on some vehicles. Chrome can be installed on the door handles, on the windows, on the front grill, or even on the rear. All those small bits make a huge difference in terms of the sophistication of your vehicle. Small bits of chrome cost anywhere between ₹500 to ₹3,000.

Roof Rails: They are located on top of your vehicle. They look good and are a functional part too! You can use them to carry extra baggage, like suitcases or even cycles, if you have attachments. Roof rails might range from ₹4,000 to ₹8,000.

Window Visors: They are small plastic or acrylic visors that cover your windows in your car. They keep rain out when your window is cracked open and reduce wind noise. Two window visors would range from ₹1,000 to ₹2,500.

Car Covers: In case your Creta Electric stays parked for the majority of the time, then it is most certainly worth paying for a car cover. It keeps your vehicle safe from dust, sun, rain, and even bird dung! A proper car cover should not cost you more than ₹1,000 to ₹3,000.

Interior Accessories

You will spend most of your time within your interior, so it must be handy and cozy!

Seat Covers: These are placed over your original car seats and also work to protect them from spills, dust, and wear. These can also be discovered in a variety of materials and colors. The quality seat covers would range between ₹2,000 and ₹10,000 based on material (like fabric, leatherette, or stock leather).

Floor Mats: These are similar to a rug for the car floor. They trap dirt and spills and are far easier to clean than the car carpet. You can use simple cloth mats or something more durable, like rubber mats. A good set of floor mats can cost anywhere from ₹800 to ₹3,000.

Dashboard Organizers: Small trays or pockets that allow you to keep things within reach in your dashboard, such as your phone, keys, or sunglasses. Between ₹200 and ₹1,000.

Car Perfume/Air Freshener: They fragrance your car perfectly! You can find ones that hang on your mirror, vent stick, or even electric ones. Between ₹100 and ₹1,000 or more for chic electronic diffusers.

Mobile Phone Holder: A good idea is to keep your phone in visible sight while driving (but, of course, not when you're actually behind the wheel!). A good-quality phone holder that will attach itself to your air vent or dashboard will cost you between ₹300 to ₹1,500.

Sunshades: These are the items you put on your car windows to shade the sun and cool the inside of your vehicle. They also provide you with some privacy. Sunshades for the front windshield, side windows, and rear window exist. A pack can range from ₹500 to ₹2,000.

Safety and Technology Accessories

All these accessories are about enhancing your driving experience to be safer and more convenient.

Reverse Camera and Parking Sensors: Parking sensors range from ₹2,000 to ₹5,000, and the reverse camera ranges from ₹3,000 to ₹8,000.

Dash Cam: It is a small camera that you attach to your dashboard, and it films while you are driving. In the event of an accident, it would be of great use. Dash cams would range between ₹2,000 and ₹10,000 based on the features (video quality, night vision feature, and GPS).

Security System: It will safeguard your car against theft. Security systems are not equal, and their features are also not the same. They range between ₹3,000 to ₹15,000 or even more.

Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): TPMS will tell you if the tire pressure in your car is right. When the tire pressure is wrong while you're driving, it is dangerous as well as wastes unnecessary energy from your electric car. A TPMS will cost between ₹4,000 and ₹8,000.
