The Hyundai Verna continues to be a top contender in the Indian compact sedan segment, and the 2025 model only strengthens its case. With new variants, enhanced safety features, and updated tech, the Hyundai Verna is designed to attract drivers who value performance and modern comforts.
Two Engine Options to Choose From
The Hyundai Verna 2025 offers two engine choices – a 1.5L MPi Petrol engine that delivers 115 HP and a more powerful 1.5L Turbo GDi Petrol engine with 160 HP. This gives buyers the flexibility to pick between everyday efficiency and turbocharged performance.
Both engines are available with multiple transmission options. You can opt for a 6-speed manual, a CVT (for the non-turbo petrol), or a 7-speed DCT available with the turbo version. The top speeds differ too – the turbo model can reach up to 210 kmph while the regular petrol tops out at 190 kmph.
Impressive Mileage and Dimensions
The Hyundai Verna offers a claimed mileage of 18.6 kmpl to 20.6 kmpl depending on the variant and engine type. It’s designed for city drives as well as highway cruising, thanks to its well-balanced size – measuring 4535 mm in length, 1765 mm in width, and 1475 mm in height. The sedan also boasts a wheelbase of 2670 mm and a massive 528-litre boot space.
Feature-Rich New Variants
Hyundai has added two new variants to the 2025 Verna lineup – the 1.5L Turbo Petrol S(O) DCT and the 1.5L MPi Petrol S IVT. These trims come with premium upgrades while keeping affordability in mind.
One of the standout additions is the electric sunroof, now included even in mid-range variants. The S(O) turbo variant comes with an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system that supports wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. It also includes a wireless charger, automatic climate control, and rear camera with dynamic guidelines.
The S IVT variant adds three drive modes – Eco, Normal, and Sport – as well as paddle shifters for a more fun driving experience. Cosmetic updates like red front brake calipers and 16-inch black alloy wheels give the car a sportier look.
Best-in-Class Safety Features
Safety has been a major focus in the Hyundai Verna 2025. It now offers Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), including forward collision warning, blind spot detection, lane keep assist, high beam assist, and rear cross traffic alert.
The Verna also features a six-airbag system, electronic stability control, anti-lock braking with EBD, and hill-start assist. These systems work together to provide a secure and stable drive on all kinds of roads.
Turbo variants come with all-wheel disc brakes, adding to the confidence while braking. Features like rear parking sensors with camera, impact-sensing door unlock, ISOFIX child seat anchors, and burglar alarms enhance the car’s practical safety too.
The car has also received a 5-star rating in the Global NCAP crash test, reassuring buyers about its build quality and passenger protection.
Interior Comfort and Infotainment
Inside the cabin, the Hyundai Verna doesn’t disappoint. Top trims come with a premium 8-speaker Bose sound system, ventilated seats for front passengers, and smart connectivity features. Hyundai has done well to blend tech with comfort, offering a clean layout that feels both premium and user-friendly.
Pricing and Upcoming Hike
The Hyundai Verna 2025 is priced between ₹11.07 lakh and ₹17.55 lakh (ex-showroom), depending on the variant and engine configuration. Hyundai has also announced a price hike of 3% across all its models from April 2025, so interested buyers might want to act soon.
Conclusion
The Hyundai Verna 2025 stands out for its balance of performance, comfort, and safety. With new variants, better mileage, advanced tech, and a wide range of features, the Verna continues to raise the bar in the sedan segment. It remains a top choice for buyers looking for a stylish, practical, and feature-loaded car in the mid-size category.
