Next-generation Hyundai Verna - variants detailed

The fifth-generation of the Hyundai Verna is all set to grace the auto enthusiasts in our country on the coming August 22, 2017. The South Korean automaker has added its tried and tested formula of loading cars up to the brim and offering many segment-first features.

Looking at the features on offer, it is safe to say that not only has Hyundai filled the loopholes in the previous model’s packaging, but it has also gone the extra mile in an attempt to take its throne back from the Honda City this time around. Let us see what all the Hyundai Verna packs, in our ‘Variants Explained’ series through its leaked brochure.
