When the current model Hyundai Verna was launched in India it took the market by storm. Its combination of powerful petrol and diesel engines helped it to the top in that segment. However, the car is beginning to show its age now. And while last year’s facelift has kept it going, it needs a lot more than that to fight for the top spot. Hyundai has just taken the wraps off the new 2017 Hyundai Verna that will come to India next year. Prices of the next generation Hyundai Verna will fall in the Rs. 8-12 lakhs range.

estimated ex-showroom price
Currently, the Hyundai Verna costs anywhere between Rs. 7.88 lakhs and Rs. 13.10 lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi). We’re expecting the upcoming 2017 Hyundai Verna range to start at around Rs. 8 lakhs topping out at somewhere around Rs. 13.50 lakhs. While that will still make it more expensive than the Maruti Ciaz, the Verna will fall in the same price bracket as the Honda City.

estimated mileage figures
Mileage figures could witness a slight improvement despite the new Verna using the old model’s engines. Hyundai isn’t one to run around after high mileage figures so do not expect any claims of “class leading” fuel efficiency figures.

New 2017 Hyundai Verna Exterior Review
The production-spec MY 2017 Verna closely resembles the concept that was showcased a few months back. It gets a more mature looking exterior thanks to the new Fluidic Sculpture 2.0 design language. Up front, Hyundai’s signature hexagonal grille takes centre stage with sleek new swept back headlamps on either side. They get projector units and LED DRLs. Like the current Verna, the upcoming model also features a sloping coupe-like roofline. Hints of the new Elantra can be seen at the back in the form of the subtle ‘kick up’ style spoiler and narrow split tail lamps. Overall, the new design looks smart and should be helpful in attracting customers.
New 2017 Hyundai Verna Interior Review
The Hyundai Verna 2017 gets a fresh new cabin that looks classier than the current car. Designers have kept the dashboard elegant. It gets a neatly integrated touchscreen infotainment system and auto aircon controls placed below it. The China-spec model pictured here gets an all-black interior trim with silver highlights. We expect Hyundai India to offer the new Verna with a dual tone black-beige interior treatment. Bits like the steering wheel, gear know, etc. are similar to existing products like the Elite i20 and Creta. We expect Hyundai Verna’s cabin to be more spacious and practical than before.
New 2017 Hyundai Verna Engine and Transmission
The current model’s engine lineup is likely to be carried forward to the upcoming car. The new Hyundai Verna will get four engine options – 1.4-litre petrol, 1.6-litre petrol, 1.4-litre diesel and 1.6-litre diesel. The 1.4 and 1.6 petrol engines make 106 bhp and 121 bhp respectively. While the 1.4 and 1.6 diesel engines put out 89 bhp and 126 bhp respectively. The 6-speed manual that comes standard with all engine options will continue. However, the optional 4-speed auto on offer with the 1.6 L Petrol and 1.6 L Diesel engines could be replaced by 6-speed automatic units. Fuel efficiency should witness an improvement.
