Dealer sources have confirmed to Carandbike that the new Hyundai Verna 1.4 petrol is all set to be Introduced and will go on sale as early as this week. Certain dealers have also started accepting bookings for the new variant that commands a lower price tag. The Verna 1.4 petrol is expected to be priced at around ₹ 7.30 lakh (ex-showroom), making it substantially cheaper than the entry-level Verna 1.6 petrol variant.
The Hyundai Verna 1.4 will be available in two trims - E and EX.

Expect Hyundai to share details of the new Hyundai Verna 1.4 soon. The compact sedan space continues to be ruled by the Maruti Suzuki Ciaz and the Honda City, and the lower entry price tag will help the Verna gain more volumes. The Hyundai Verna 1.6 variants are priced between ₹ 8 lakh and ₹ 12.49 lakh for the petrol, and ₹ 9.43 lakh to ₹ 12.69 lakh (all prices, ex-showroom Delhi) for the diesel.
