Hyundai Bayon specifications
The Bayon-based compact SUV is expected to come with the same underpinnings as the global-spec Bayon. It will get a new in-house developed 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine. This engine is also being readied for hybridisation. It will likely be mated to either a DCT or an e-CVT gearbox, depending on the variant. The compact SUV could likely be powered by a 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine from the i20 N line and Venue as well, producing 120hp and 170Nm of torque and is paired with either a manual or a DCT gearbox.

Questions you may find useful
I'm a first-time car buyer planning to purchase an automatic petrol car in Q3 2026, mainly for city use and occasional long trips. I want modern features such as a 360° camera, wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, etc. My budget is around Rs. 10-12 lakh, but I can extend it to Rs. 14 lakh if the car is feature-rich and offers good safety, ADAS, etc. Initially, I shortlisted the Hyundai i20 Asta variant, but I have heard that it will receive a facelift soon. I have also heard that Hyundai will be launching the Bayon soon. So, I am a little confused about whether it is a good decision to buy a car that is due for a facelift, wait for the Hyundai Bayon launch, or consider other alternatives such as the Hyundai Venue, Kia Sonet, or Mahindra XUV 3XO. I am avoiding Maruti Suzuki because I have read that the features and safety offered in this price range are not as good as those of the competition. Please advise me. Thanks.
The Mahindra XUV 3XO petrol automatic is a strong fit for your usage. Its smooth 6 speed automatic, light steering and compact footprint make it very easy to live with in the city, especially in traffic and tight parking conditions. Importantly, it already ticks your feature requirements, including a 360° camera, wireless Android Auto and CarPlay, and even ADAS, within your stretched budget of around Rs 14 lakh. It also feels reassuringly solid. The XUV range has built a good safety reputation, and the turbo petrol engine offers strong low end performance, making it well suited to both city driving and occasional highway runs.On the i20, while it remains a well rounded premium hatchback, the current version does miss out on features like a 360° camera and ADAS. There is talk of a facelift, but timelines are not confirmed, and it is unclear whether Hyundai will add these features, so waiting specifically for that may not guarantee what you are looking for.As for the upcoming Bayon, Hyundai is expected to bring it around September, but it will likely be a larger, around 4.3 metre crossover as a Maruti Suzuki Victoris rival and positioned below the Creta. That means it may not be as feature rich in the variants that fall within your budget. It could also end up competing more with mid size SUVs rather than sub 4 metre options.The Venue and Sonet are polished and easy to recommend, but the variants that offer both ADAS and a 360 degree camera tend to stretch well beyond Rs.14 lakh on road.
