2023 Hyundai Verna Vs Honda City Vs Skoda Slavia Vs Volkswagen Virtus: Price Comparison

With prices out for the 2023 Hyundai Verna, here's how it fares against its rivals, namely Honda City, Volkswagen Virtus, Skoda Slavia, and Maruti Suzuki Ciaz.

The sedan segment in India is blooming again after a long. Once which was the most celebrated pie in our market, was kept unattended for a long due to the shift of consumer interest in SUVs. Now, the 2023 Hyundai Verna makes its entry into the Indian market with a rather striking design. Of course, it will have polarising opinions from consumers. But there’s no point that Verna can go noticed in the pool of other cars, be it SUVs, sedans, or anything for that matter. It is priced from Rs 10.89 lakh (ex-showroom), which further makes the deal rather sweet with 6 airbags as a standard affair across the range. But how does it stand against its rivals? Let’s go through this price comparison to find out.

The Hyundai Verna is sold with two engine options - 1.5L NA-petrol and 1.5L turbo-petrol. Prices with the former start from Rs 10.89 lakh and go up to Rs 16.20 lakh.
