What the HC Package Means
HC stands for home charger. With this version, Hyundai bundles a wall box charger with the car, so you don’t need to buy one separately. A wall box charges far faster than the portable charger, fully charging the Creta Electric overnight. As a result, the HC suits buyers who plan to charge mainly at home and want a ready-to-use setup from day one.
Hyundai Creta Electric Excellence HC Features
Apart from the home charger, the Excellence HC matches the standard Excellence feature for feature. It gets dual 10.25-inch curved screens, an 8-speaker Bose system and a voice-enabled panoramic sunroof. Moreover, 8-way powered front seats with driver memory and ventilated front seats add comfort. It also offers V2L inside and outside, a front wireless charger and a frunk.
Safety and ADAS
The Excellence HC gets 6 airbags, ESC, TPMS and a 360-degree camera. In addition, its Level 2 ADAS suite includes 20 features, such as smart cruise control with stop and go, lane following assist and rear cross-traffic collision-avoidance assist. Safe exit warning also alerts passengers before they open a door into traffic.
