When I began the search for my new car, I was narrowed in towards Seltos. It was March 2021, and the current facelift of Seltos was months away. And then Hyundai announced its next gen Verna, and I was blown away. The renders looked too futuristic to be true, and I told myself, if all the cuts and creases of the production variant look like this, I will buy it. And that's how I ended up buying Verna 2023 facelift, SX(O) variant. Hyundai has done an excellent job at converting renders to actual production vehicle. Here are 5 things I love about the car: 1. Feature loaded: The top end is loaded with all the features one can think of- 10+ inch infotainment screen, ambient lighting, electronically adjustable seats, ventilated seats, sunroof, Bose speaker setup and what not. 2. ADAS level 2: The ADAS features of the car work perfectly. The feature comes in extremely handy when you are on a highway, which has marked lanes 3. Comfort: Verna is one of the most comfortable cars in the mass market segment, under 20 lac. Be it the front seats, the back seats, armrest, ride quality, cabin noise levels, AC, spacious seating, all result in a very very comfortable ride 4. Exterior Looks: Well Verna 2023 gets polarising reviews about the front looks. I of-course love how futuristic and low to the ground it looks from the front. The back look Verna that has won hearts of everyone, so no issues there. 5. Safety: With all the ADAS features, 6 airbags and other safety features, Verna got a 5 star rating in crash test, which is just an icing on the cake, the entire package that is very well put together. Overall, I have had a great experience over the last 2 years with Verna 2023 facelift, and its an easy recommendation from my end. Sharing some pics from the delivery day at the dealership :)

Of all the cars currently on sale in India, the Hyundai Verna diesel stands out as my absolute favourite. It perfectly blends performance, comfort, and efficiency in a way that few cars manage today. The engine delivers strong, consistent torque that makes every overtake smooth and confidence-inspiring, while still returning impressive fuel economy on long highway runs. The chassis feels planted at high speeds, and the suspension tuning strikes a great balance between absorbing rough patches and keeping the drive engaging. Inside, it offers a well-designed, comfortable cabin that makes even long journeys a pleasure. For me, the Verna is a car that manages to be practical for daily use, thrilling on open roads, and refined enough to feel premium all in one package.

Although it may seem biased as I own it, I would say I own the Hyundai Verna 1.5 turbo BECAUSE I believe it is one of the best and arguable the most VFM car on the market today. It has trailblazing looks, fantastic performance, underrated dynamics and oodles of features. Now packaged in 5 star safety and boasting excellent comfort, all while undercutting the competitors in price by a Not so insignificant margin make it the perfect package for a lot of consumers.

The Hyundai Verna reason is simple, its a car that satisfies both the heart and the head. I first considered the Verna after reading the detailed official team-bhp review, and a couple of ownership reports that described its strengths and weaknesses honestly. When I test drive it, I could immediately connect with the way it combined performance and refinement. The turbo-petrol variant especially impressed me, it made highway runs feel effortless, with plenty of power on tap, while still maintaining excellent refinement inside the cabin. The insulation is so good that long drives become genuinely fatigue-free, something I value a lot. Inside, the Verna feels like it belongs to a class above. The ventilated seats were a blessing during one of my long summer drives, and the connected features made road trips even more convenient. Yet it remains practical, fuel efficiency is respectable, the boot can handle family luggage with ease, and hyundai service network gives peace of mind for longer journeys. For me, the Verna stands out because it doesnt force you to choose between driving pleasure and practicality.

I bought Hyundai Verna SX(O) Turbo Manual recently, it represents a rare and balanced blend of performance, practicality, features, and design in a market that's increasingly leaning towards SUVs and automatics. The Verna Turbo stands out in a sea of crossovers due to its enthusiast-focused character a powerful 1.5L turbocharged petrol engine producing 160 PS, mated to a slick 6-speed manual gearbox. In an era where manuals are fading, this car is a breath of fresh air for driving purists who still enjoy the mechanical connection with the car. I would have loved it even more if we could completely turn traction control off.

Among all the cars currently on sale in India, my pick would be the Hyundai Verna (Turbo Petrol variant). It strikes a rare balance between performance, design, and value. The 1.5L turbocharged engine delivers punchy acceleration, making it one of the most engaging sedans to drive in its segment. Add to that its sharp, futuristic styling and a cabin packed with premium featuresventilated seats, a fully digital cockpit, ADAS techit feels like a segment above. While SUVs dominate the market, the new Verna proves that sedans still have a strong case when done right.

The Verna has consistently been a benchmark in the midsize sedan space, and what I admire most is how it blends style, comfort, and performance into one neat package. Over the years, it has evolved beautifully from the early CRDi rocket that enthusiasts loved for its sheer torque, to the current-gen model 1.5L Turbo GDi engine that offers futuristic design, premium interiors, and a balance of efficiency + driving pleasure.

Hyundai Verna as per my knowledge is one of the best Sedans available in the market as of now .It is the most value for money car in its segment. Loaded with ample amount of features in the interior. The main thing which attracts me the most is the Power delivery with 115 ps and 140 nm torque. Also the cruise control feature makes the long drive easy for open highways. The headlight unit does an awesome job with its projector setup and foglight during the night time.

Of all the cars I have driven, I have liked the Hyundai Verna. Comfortable, fully featured, very very robust - I used it for 3 years without problems. The interior is very good, and the best part is Hyundai's service.

Coming to the verna...I like the way to looks, the creases, the rear spoiler and the front connected DRLs. Add to that the quality of interiors is great. Soft touches, leather wrapped steering wheel, ambient lighting and the quality of materials used make you feel that you are in a car that's a segment above. ADAS - while some of the features such as FCW can be intrusive but, the blind spot monitoring has helped me multiple times with the bikers attempting to swerve here and there. I also feel that the lane keep assist helps or reminds me to follow lane discipline. Apart from the ADAS, other features such as the auto hold and the epb make it truly automatic. Coming to the most fun part - the 1.5L turb
