Hyundai Verna is a name that all of us are familiar with, as it has been around for a long now. In fact, the saloon has been on sale for three generations so far. Now in 2023, it is receiving a major overhaul. The fourth-gen rendition of the Hyundai Verna will be launched in the market tomorrow. The 2023 Hyundai Verna will compete with other c-segment sedans that are sold in India, namely Maruti Suzuki Ciaz, Honda City, Volkswagen Virtus, and Skoda Slavia. The Verna is expected to bring more numbers for the brand and also infuse new life in this dying space. But what all is expected from the new model? Read on to find out.

A rather futuristic design will be utilised by the Verna this time. Taking inspiration from the larger Elantra, it gets a full LED light bar on the nose, which separates the bonnet and bumper. The former is long, and the latter is a little too busy, sporting a large grille and headlamps. Around the sides, the silhouette of the new-gen Verna looks appealing in the design sketches revealed. It is likely to get larger dual-tone alloy wheels. At the tail, lights will be connected to each other, and the sharp lines will be prominent in this section too. After all, it will use a parametric design theme.

A two-spoke steering wheel will be seen, along with neatly-integrated AC vents and a high-set centre console. The space is also expected to be increased on the inside, thereby making the sedan more spacious and comfortable.
