The all-new fifth-gen Verna is available more or less in the same price range as the fourth-gen model, at least for the first 20,000 customers! 



Were you waiting for the new Hyundai Verna? Your wait is finally over as Hyundai has launched the fifth-generation model in the country yesterday. 





The price range of the new Hyundai Verna is more or less in the same vicinity as the previous model, given the fact that the former offers a lot more in terms of features. Undoubtedly, the new Verna is the most loaded car in the mid-size sedan segment today.

Official pre-bookings for the 2017 Hyundai Verna begun on August 04, 2017, with an assurance of early delivery. The pre-bookings ended on August 21, just a day before its launch. Hyundai launched it with introductory prices for its first 20,000 customers. 





According to Hyundai, over 45,000 people have shown interest in the new Verna till now. Out of that, the South Korean automaker is expecting 20 per cent will be converted into bookings (roughly around 8000-9000). 



Like always, the Verna’s diesel models continue to be the sale churners as Hyundai stated that 60 per cent of the enquiries are for the same. Its 1.6-litre diesel, which is the most powerful motor in its class, has always been its forte. 





Though the 1.6-litre diesel remains the same in terms of peak output, the torque is poured in much early than before (1500rpm as opposed to 1900rpm in the previous model), which will largely improve its drivability, which wasn't bad earlier! Also, the torque range (1500-3000rpm) has been increased compared to the previous tune (1900-2750rpm). 





Besides the now standard 6-speed manual (petrol had 5-speed manual before), Hyundai has also added a new 6-speed automatic in the 2017 Verna (petrol and diesel). However, the majority (nearly 70 per cent) are interested in its manual versions.
