New Hyundai Verna: Variants explained

Hyundai India launched the sixth-generation Verna in the country earlier today, with prices starting at Rs. 10.90 lakh (ex-showroom). Bookings for the MY23 Verna are underway for Rs 25,000, with deliveries set to begin soon.

Under the hood, the MY23 Hyundai Verna loses the 1.5-litre diesel engine in order to comply with the BS6 Phase 2 and RDE norms. That said, it carries forward the 1.5-litre NA petrol motor developing 113bhp and 144Nm, paired with a six-speed manual unit or an IVT unit. Then there is a new 1.5-litre turbo-petrol motor replacing the 1.0-litre unit. With an output of 158bhp and 253Nm of torque, power is sent to the front wheels via a six-speed manual unit or a seven-speed DCT unit.

The new Verna is available in seven mono tone and two dual-tone colours, including Titan Grey, Tellurian Brown, Typhoon Silver, Fiery Red, Atlas White, Abyss Black, Starry Night, Atlas White with black roof, and Fiery Red with black roof. Customers can choose from four variants, namely EX, S, SX, and SX(O). The following are the variant-wise features of the new Verna.
