The sales of sedans are no longer what they used to be primarily because of the growing demand for SUVs. However, there are still some people who prefer sedans over SUVs because of this some manufacturers are still making sedans. The most recent sedan to launch in the Indian market is the Hyundai Verna. It is an all-new generation of sedan that will be going against the Honda City, Skoda Slavia, Volkswagen Virtus and the Maruti Suzuki Ciaz.
2023 Hyundai Verna starts at ₹10.90 lakh and goes up to ₹17.38 lakh. Both prices are ex-showroom and introductory so in the future, they can change. The mid-size sedan is offered in six variants. There is EX, S, SX, SX(O), SX Turbo and SX(O) Turbo. Below is the variant-wise feature list of all the variants.
