Hyundai Introduces Assured Buyback Programme for the Creta Electric
By Sayan Paul
Published August 4, 2026
Hyundai has introduced an Assured Buyback Programme for the Creta Electric, guaranteeing owners 60% of the purchase price if they return the car within three years or 45,000 km, whichever comes first.
This comes shortly after Hyundai introduced the Battery-as-a-Service option for the car, bringing the entry price down to Rs 10.99 lakh with a battery usage charge of Rs 3.9 per km.
Between BaaS and the buyback guarantee, Hyundai is clearly trying to reduce the financial risk on both ends of EV ownership, and that is a sensible approach for a market that is still warming up to electric cars.
