2017 Hyundai Verna To Launch On August 22; Official Bookings Open

Engine and Transmission 

• 1.6-litre Dual VTVT: 123PS and 155Nm  (6-speed MT/AT)
• 1.6-litre U2 CRDi VGT: 128PS and 260Nm (6-speed MT/AT)

While a 6-speed manual is now standard across the range (earlier the 1.6-litre petrol was mated to a 5-speed manual), an optional 6-speed automatic transmission has replaced the ancient 4-speed auto. The same drivetrain options are offered with the 2017 Verna in the Russian market as well, where it is known as Solaris. 

2017 Hyundai Verna Variants: 

It is available in six variants each for both the diesel and petrol:

Petrol 

• Verna E (Base trim) 

• Verna EX 

• Verna Auto EX (Base petrol automatic trim)

• Verna SX

• Verna SX (O) (Range-topping manual trim)

• Verna Auto SX (O) (Range-topping automatic trim)

Diesel 

• Verna E (Base diesel trim)

• Verna EX 

• Verna Auto EX (Base diesel automatic trim)

• Verna SX

• Verna Auto SX+ (Top-spec diesel automatic)

• Verna SX (O) (Range-topping diesel trim: manual only)

Unlike before, there’s no full-spec diesel automatic trim, the Auto SX+ will offer more goodies than the SX trim, but surely not as much as the SX(O). The petrol, on the other hand, is now available in the range-topping SX(O) trim, which was not the case with the previous model.  

Colours 

New

• Polar White

• Fiery Red 

• Thunder Black 

• Siena Brown 

• Flame Orange 

Existing

The new teaser released by Hyundai today revealed that the Verna features a sunroof, which is offered for the first time with the nameplate in India. It is likely to be offered with the top-spec SX (O) trims. Till now, it was only the Honda City that offered a sunroof in the mid-sized sedan segment.
