Hyundai Motor India has rolled out an exciting trio of special editionsโthe Creta Electric Knight, i20 Knight, and Alcazar Knightโjust in time for the festive season. These models bring a bold, dark-themed aesthetic with unique styling and enhanced features, setting them apart from their standard counterparts. Building on the success of the Knight range, which has sold over 77,000 units since its debut in 2022, Hyundaiโs latest offerings expand the lineup to six models, including the Creta Knight, Venue Knight, Exter Knight, and the newly launched variants. With their striking blacked-out designs and premium upgrades, these editions are crafted to capture attention and elevate the driving experience.

Each model features an all-black interior with elegant brass accents, paired with exterior elements like glossy black alloy wheels, red brake calipers, and matte-black Hyundai badges. Additional touches include blacked-out skid plates, side sills, roof rails, and a rear spoiler, all complemented by a signature Knight emblem. Inside, the cabins boast black upholstery, brass highlights, a unique dashboard finish, and sporty metal pedals, creating a premium and dynamic ambiance that distinguishes these editions from their standard versions.
