Creta Electric Battery Replacement Cost

However, we spoke to the dealer, and as per their information, during the warranty period, only those modules will be replaced which are defective, not the entire battery. However, once the warranty period is over, the approximate cost is Rs 20,000 per cell. The NMC battery pack in the Creta Electric has a total of 22 modules, with each module including 4 cells. So going by that

Total Cost of Battery Replacement: Rs 17-18 Lakh.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

The official Hyundai Owner's Manual outlines strict conditions that can void your warranty. To ensure your battery remains protected for the full 8 years/1,60,000 km, avoid the following: Neglecting Maintenance: Failing to charge the vehicle at least once every 3 months during periods of inactivity. Improper Charging: Using unapproved battery chargers or unauthorized electrical modifications. Unapproved Accessories: Installing any third-party devices or accessories not supplied by Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL). External Damage: Exposing the vehicle to flooding, fire, severe accidents, or misuse.

Yes. Hyundai advises using AC charging for routine drives which optimises battery performance and reliability. Hyundai also provides 7.4 kW smart connected AC wall box charger for home setups, which charges the 51.4 kWh battery in about 4 hours & 50 minutes.

Not necessarily. The Hyundai Creta Electric Owner's Manual clearly states that battery replacement is subject to their internal quality standards. If the High-Voltage battery's capacity loss is deemed to be "within the normal aging level according to the use of the vehicle," it comes under standard degradation and is not covered under warranty. The warranty is against manufacturing defects, electrical component failures, and premature failure.
