Interested in bringing home the Hyundai Verna facelift? Here’s our Ultimate Buying Guide!
Hyundai recently gave the Verna a 2026 model-year update, and while it may not be a complete generation change, the sedan now feels more premium and is also safer with some new features added. Apart from enhanced styling and a more premium cabin, it also gets a revised variant lineup.
The Verna is one of the most compelling options under Rs 20 lakh, and if you are planning to buy the sedan, then here’s a detailed look at the sedan in our comprehensive report covering the exterior, interior, features, powertrain, and more, in real-life images:
Hyundai Verna Design
Front
-
The Verna continues with modern design, led by that wide connected LED DRL strip stretching across the nose. While there have been some mixed opinions about the connected lighting strip, we can say that it instantly grabs attention and makes the sedan look premium and modern.


-
The LED projector headlamps now get a cleaner housing design, making the front look neater and sharper.
-
The all-black grille remains familiar, but the bumper has been slightly redesigned for a fresher appearance.
-
The LED fog lamps and turn indicators are neatly integrated within the setup, keeping the front look clean.
Side
-
In profile, the Verna still looks long and sleek. It is low-slung with a coupe-like roofline that gives it a sporty stance.

-
The sedan sits on 16-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, and while the design remains unchanged, they still suit the Verna’s premium styling well.
-
You get chrome door handles and chrome finishes around the window frames.
-
The ORVMs remain neatly integrated with turn indicators and add to the clean overall look.
| Notable Details: The sedan now measures 30 mm longer than before, adding a little more sleekness to its proportions. |
Rear
-
At the rear, the Verna continues with the connected LED taillight setup that gives the Verna a premium look, especially at night.

-
The “Verna” lettering sits proudly across the boot lid and adds a touch of sophistication.
-
The bumper design stays clean and minimal, helping maintain the sedan’s elegant look.
-
The boot lid itself has a slightly raised lip that gives it a subtle sporty touch.
-
You also get a shark fin antenna for a premium and sporty look.
| New hues: The facelifted Verna comes with two new colours. These include a matte-finished Titan Grey, alongside the Classy Blue. Other shades on offer are Starry Night, Atlas White, and Abyss Black. The white hue can also be paired with a black roof. |
Hyundai Verna Interior
-
Step inside, and you will be welcomed by a black and white dual-tone theme, which keeps the interior looking bright and premium.

-
The dashboard layout remains familiar with its clean horizontal design and integrated twin-screen setup.
-
The biggest visible update is the new steering wheel featuring Hyundai’s Morse code logo design, which aligns it with the brand’s latest design language.

-
The steering wheel feels chunky and premium with mounted controls placed neatly for convenience.
-
The ambient lighting is tastefully done and adds a premium feel, especially during night drives.
-
Soft-touch materials across the dashboard and door pads improve the premium experience.

-
You also get many practical and comfort-enhancing bits like front and rear armrests, rear sunshades, multiple storage spaces, and front and rear charging ports.

-
The seats remain supportive and comfortable, with even passengers with larger builds finding the cabin a comfortable place to be.
Hyundai Verna 2026: Rear Seats
-
The rear bench is one of the Verna’s strongest points.
-
There is generous knee room and good under-thigh support, making it comfortable even for taller passengers on long journeys.

-
The rear AC vents ensure cooling reaches quickly, while the rear sunshades help improve comfort during hot summer drives.

The single-pane sunroof helps brighten up the cabin and makes the rear seat area feel airier.
-
Rear passengers also get dedicated charging options for added practicality.
Hyundai Verna Boot Space

The Verna offers a massive 528-litre boot, which is among the best in the segment.
-
It can easily accommodate multiple cabin-sized suitcases along with a few backpacks, making it ideal for family trips.
