The new Knight Edition is based on the SX and SX(O) Connect models. The previously launched Venue Knight edition was available in S trim as well. The Creta’s Knight edition was launched in all four trim levels.
This new update is more of a cosmetic upgrade in the Hyundai’s Mini-SUV. The Knight editions of the Creta and Venue had some feature additions in them. They had a dash camera installed from the factory. The new Exter Knight edition did not see those changes.
