Hyundai Verna Review by Expert
Here to transform how you drive, Hyundai Verna Fluidic offers itself in a new avatar which is much different from its predecessor Hyundai Verna Transform. Hyundai Verna comes powered with both petrol and diesel engine. .
The exterior of the Hyundai Verna Fluidic suggests as if it’s ready to pierce through the wind. The bold curves enhance the overall beauty of the car. All the elements that add aesthetics to this wind chaser include the new front grille that assumes a cascade like shape and places the company’s logo on it. The new bumper takes a more curvaceous turn and looks much more appealing than the one on Hyundai Verna; the new set of sharp eye headlamps offer character to the body while the swanky LED turn indicators adorn the electrically adjustable outside rear view mirrors. Some of the other noticeable changes on the exterior include chrome exhaust, black inserts on the bumper, combination rear lamp and fog lamps alongside headlights for better vision of the road ahead in tough winters.

Hyundai Verna Rivals
The fluidic Hyundai Verna has changed the fortunes of the Korean carmaker in the sedan segment and has emerged as the hot selling one in a limited period of time. With innovative design language outside and acclaimed inside it has put many sedans at bay. Here we put it against Skoda Rapid the premium sedan. Both these cars are available in choice of petrol and diesel along with being priced competitively against each other, as they fall in the same segment. Starting with exteriors, Hyundai Verna’s fluidic and glamorous design language speaks for itself, whereas the elegance and sophistication are the words for Skoda Rapid. Here it all depends upon the taste that you like more. While the neatness and premium-ness is more in Skoda sedan compared to urban and up market of Hyundai Verna.
Moreover, features-wise Rapid is nowhere near Verna’s engaging and advanced ones. Both have well taken care of the safety aspect as they offer adequate protection to occupants in case of any mishap. Talking about the fuel, of course, Skoda Rapid guzzles more compared to all frugal engines of Hyundai Verna. To end with, Rapid’s maintenance is a bit more (and expensive) against low and more accessible with Hyundai Verna, due to their vast network across the nation. Another opponent for Hyundai Verna is all-new Ford Fiesta. This exceptional appearing American sedan has got perfect design aerodynamics to match up with the glamorous Hyundai Verna. The interiors of both the sedans are spacious, but large leg-room at rear seat is properly provided with Ford Fiesta. On the gadgetry part the two sedans are equal with Verna being a bit on the higher side. On the engine choices the vote goes to Hyundai Verna for its host of choices in the petrol and diesel department.

Hyundai Verna Road Test Report

Hyundai Verna is appreciated by its users for its stunning looks, room inside, 1.6 L diesel engine, transmission options – 6 speed manual and 4 speed tiptronic automatic, easy maneuverability and its segment first features including parking camera, start stop function, 6 airbags, all disk brakes besides Anti-lock Braking system and electronic brakeforce distribution. However, what people dislike is its being vulnerable at high speeds, highly sensitive suspension, only four speed automatic transmission and uncomfortable seating at the rear.

Exterior of the Verna is inspired by the Fluidic sculpture and it is with this car that Hyundai has introduced its fluidic design. Thus, if the Verna has to inspire all the future Hyundai car models, it has to be a role model and it is it, in fact. New bonnet with a swooping down image, new swept back headlamps, L shaped head lamps all indicate as if the car is flowing even if it is stationary. The rear seems to derive more so its appearance from Mercedes C Class.
The interiors surely are much improved than the earlier generation Verna and promises higher degree of comfort and safety to the occupants. Modern and inviting interiors are marked by higher grade plastics and more legroom for six footers at the front and a little dwarfed at the rear. Climate controlled air conditioning, leather upholstery, reverse camera and start stop function besides Bluetooth connectivity to audio system apart from lots of controls on the steering make the drive inside the Verna all the more pleasing. The Verna is also high on safety as it has six airbags along with Anti-lock Braking system to take care of panic braking besides the electronic brakeforce system makes driving all the more safer.
On road driving of the Verna is pleasurable as the steering is highly sensitive and the suspension takes in even the deepest of the pits easily. Besides, the light steering makes driving the Verna in the city easier. Thus it performs pretty well on road at high as well as low speeds. The suspension being swifter, gives a feeling of being dragged at corners, may be due to heavier front. However, it overall gives better handling than the outgoing generation. Availability in petrol and diesel as well as four speed automatic and six speed manual options gives ample choice to the users to select their model according to their wish and driving comfort. Starting at Rs 7.11 lakh, the Verna is as pleasurable to own and drive as any other premium segment sedan.
Hyundai Verna Conclusion
Hyundai Verna Fluidic has got all vibrant features and power packed performance that its segment lacks, a complete package was always missed in this price range where Verna falls. The praiseworthy part with this Hyundai sedan is its feature filled range that has number of variants to choose from. Moreover, the incorporation of Automatic Transmission (AT) version in petrol as well as diesel powered versions have made it an obvious choice in its segment, and an utmost edge over arch rivals like Honda City and Ford Fiesta.
Meanwhile, the trend of launching AT variant is prospering in the automotive sector, but majorly the carmakers are coming up with petrol AT. But, here the Korean car maker has got enough courage to introduce the same with diesel motor too, which is an ideal USP of it.
While, the exterior design language was already talk of the globe, Hyundai Verna comes with flying colors in the interiors department too, as it gets the title of providing with finest interiors. This was rated by one of the oldest auto magazine overseas. On the other hand, its fuel efficient choices of diesel and petrol engines under its hood make it come up as true value for money. Hence, the consumer is left with no reasons to sideline or ignore this glamorous sedan and move to the rival brands in the segment.
