As with other Hyundai following the parametric design, the new Verna features prominent cuts and creases along its body work and notable flares around the rear wheel arches. From the front there will be no mistaking the Hyundai for anyone else with the nose featuring a full-width light bar with the main headlamps positioned lower down on the bumper along the edges of the prominent grille. Down the sides a prominent creases runs from behind the front wheels into the taillights with additional cuts along the lower doors and on the rear fender. In profile, the Verna looks more akin to a four-door coupe than a three-box sedan with the roofline stretching till the tip of the tailgate.

The rear-end is characterised by a full width lightbar bracketed by vertical LED elements. The boot lid also features an upward kink right at the tip.
The interior for now remains under wraps though we expect details to emerge as the launch nears.
Hyundai has confirmed that the new Verna will be available in four trim levels – EX, S ,SX and SX(O) – and with two engine options. The 1.5-litre diesel from the current fifth-gen sedan is set to be dropped while the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol will be replaced by a new 1.5-litre turbocharged unit. Also available will be a naturally aspirated 1.5-litre petrol mill. Gearbox options will include a 6-speed manual gearbox, CVT (naturally aspirated petrol only) and a 7-speed DCT (turbo-petrol only).
