Hyundai Verna facelift
The Hyundai Verna facelift is expected to be launched by June 2026. The Verna facelift price in India will likely start at around Rs 11 lakh and go up to Rs 18 lakh (ex-showroom). This will be the first facelift for Hyundaiโs mid-size sedan since its launch in 2023.
It is expected to retain the predecessor's 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol and 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engines. The 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol produces 115hp while the 1.5-litre turbo-petrol produces 160hp. Both engines come standard with a 6-speed manual, but the naturally aspirated petrol can also be opted with a CVT, and the turbo-petrol can be opted for with a DCT gearbox. Hyundai may also bring a petrol-hybrid engine to the Verna facelift.
The Hyundai Verna facelift will take on rivals like the Honda City, Skoda Slavia and the Volkswagen Virtus.
The mileage of the Hyundai Verna Facelift could range between 18kpl and 20kpl, depending on the engine and transmission chosen.

Trending Questions on Hyundai Verna facelift - Answered by Autocar Experts
Hi Autocar, I heard that the Verna Turbo facelift coming in March 2026 could offer a hybrid powertrain. Is this true? Also, is there any ICE performance car coming in 2026 below โน40 lakhs that will be faster than the Verna Turbo?
Yes, the Hyundai Verna facelift is coming in the second week of March, but it will get only cosmetic changes. There will be no changes in the engine, which means there is no hybrid coming anytime soon.
As things stand, there isnโt an ICE car below Rs 40 lakh that is significantly quicker than the Verna, which does 0-100kph in a brisk 8.8 seconds. If outright performance is what youโre after, one car worth stretching for is the Audi Q3. While its list price is around Rs 50 lakh, attractive discounts are often available, bringing it much closer to your Rs 40 lakh budget.
The Q3 uses a 2.0-litre TFSI turbo-petrol engine producing a healthy 190hp, and thatโs enough for a 0-100kph time of 7.3 seconds - comfortably quicker than the Verna. Beyond straight-line speed, the Q3, being a compact luxury SUV, plays in a different league altogether in terms of interior quality, badge value and overall experience. Perhaps it makes the best upgrade for you if you can extend your budget a bit.
