What the S(O) Petrol MT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the S(O) Petrol MT comes to ₹14,92,180 on the road in Itanagar and ₹17,18,693 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,26,513 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka highest. You pay it where you live, so take this as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as a way to save money.
Comprehensive own-damage cover is on top of both figures: it has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer, the cover value and your no-claim bonus, so no honest single number exists for it. Budget for it from real quotes.

The full story
At ₹14.21L ex-showroom this is the sixth of 27 Creta variants by price, ₹48,000 above the EX Diesel MT. It is also the cheapest of the 4 ways into S(O): the same features as the S(O) Petrol AT for ₹1.45L less. Stepping up to S(O) Knight Edition from here starts at ₹18,000 more and changes none of the equipment we track, and opens up no engine the S(O) cannot already be had with, so whatever separates them is something to see in person.

Hyundai Creta S(O): the questions people ask
Price, on-road total, engine and what this trim goes without.
- What is the price of the Hyundai Creta S(O) Petrol MT?
- ₹14.21L, ex-showroom. That makes it 6th of 27 by price, ₹48,000 above the EX Diesel MT.
- What is the on-road price of the Hyundai Creta S(O) Petrol MT?
- Expect ₹14,92,180 in Itanagar and ₹17,18,693 in Bengaluru. Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so the identical car costs ₹2,26,513 more at one end of the country than the other. That is the ex-showroom price plus road tax, registration and the rest of the charges, across the 25 states we have verified. It does not include comprehensive own-damage cover, which every insurer prices differently.
- Which engine and gearbox does the Hyundai Creta S(O) Petrol MT have?
- The Petrol, 115 PS, with the 6-speed manual. The maker's figure for it is 17.4 km/l.
- What features does the Hyundai Creta S(O) Petrol MT get?
- The features worth naming on this trim: Rear parking camera, Headlamps (LED projector), Drive modes, Terrain modes, Cruise control and Dual-zone climate control.
- Is the S(O) the right Creta to buy?
- That depends on where the value sits across the whole range rather than on this trim alone, and we work it out variant by variant on our Hyundai Creta which-variant page. The short answer: pay for a step only where the features it adds are ones you would actually use.
