Hyundai Verna Insurance

South Korean auto giant Hyundai has launched the Verna in a new avatar, with prices starting from Rs 9.02 lakh for the Verna E and going all the way up to Rs 15.17 lakh for the Verna SX Opt AT (ex-showroom New Delhi).

Along with imparting a fresh look and feel, Hyundai has also overhauled the premium sedan's powertrain options, which has been borrowed from the Creta and the Venue. The classy new Verna is available in six distinct colours – Fiery Red, Titan Grey, Starry Night, Phantom Black, Polar White, and Typhoon Silver. Each colour also comes with a Turbo option.

The Verna packs quite a visual punch. The signature cascading front grille has a high-quality finish while the LED positioning lamps and projection headlamps give it a sporty feel. The long sloping bonnet, shark fin antenna, and split LED tail lamps also add to the sporty charm and aerodynamic appeal.

The changes to the interior are not that extensive, with an updated 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, an Arkamys sound system, and a semi-digital instrument cluster being the new additions.

The car also comes loaded with a variety of features for a safe ride including six airbags, tyre pressure monitoring system, impact sensing auto door unlock and rear parking camera with dynamic guidelines.

The most impressive changes are under the hood. The new Verna has three engine options – a 1.5-litre petrol having a maximum power of 115ps with 144Nm of torque, a 1.5-litre diesel having a maximum power of 115ps with 250Nm of torque that has been borrowed from the Creta, and a 1.0-litre turbo-petrol having a maximum power of 120ps with 172Nm of torque. The car is available with a 6-speed manual, CVT, and 6-speed torque converter (for petrol and diesel). However, the turbo-petrol engine in the Hyundai Venue comes with a 7-speed DCT only.

On the ever-so-critical mileage front, the petrol manual variants deliver of 17.7 kmpl, the petrol automatic delivers 18.45 kmpl, the diesel manual options give 25 kmpl, and the diesel automatic option gives 21.3 kmpl of mileage.

To register your new Verna and get a licence plate, you will have to pay a one-time registration fee to your Regional Transport Office (RTO). The registration charge differs from one state to another and is calculated based on the IDV of the vehicle and the fuel type. For cars in the Hyundai Verna’s price bracket, it is usually between 6% and 17%. However, before you purchase your car, it’s best to ask your dealer about the registration charges applicable on your vehicle.
