2026 Hyundai Verna Facelift HX4 Variant –

Positioned above the base HX2 variant, the HX4 variant justifies a premium of Rs 27,000 by offering features such as halogen projector headlamps and the LED DRL lightbar and the LED taillamps. It comes with a rear spoiler, body coloured door handles, a shark fin antenna and 15-inch alloy wheels finished in silver shade. Inside, the cabin gets a dual-tone theme but the seats get fabric upholstery like the base HX2 variant. The new D-Cut steering wheel is standard across all variants but gets audio and Bluetooth control in the HX4. The entry-level variant also gets an 8-inch infotainment touchscreen along with a digital cluster with a colour TFT for driver information.

All Variants Get The New D-Cut Steering Wheel

The biggest attractions in the entry-level Verna HX4 variant will be the inclusion of an electric sunroof, automatic start-stop and cruise control function that become accessible by only paying Rs 27,000 more, over the base HX2 variant’s Rs 10.89 lakh ex-showroom price.

New Hyundai Verna Facelift HX6 Variant –

For those who are looking for a bit more upmarket appeal and the option of an automatic, the HX6 variant checks the right boxes by upgrading the wheels to 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels and the new dual-projector LED headlamps. It also gets a leather-wrapped steering wheel, rear window sunshade, automatic climate control, wireless charger, ambient lighting and electrically folding ORVMS. These upgrades cost Rs 94,000 in the manual version, over the HX4 variant.

The Verna HX6 also offers a 6-speed manual and an IVT automatic gearbox option along with the 1.5-litre, naturally-aspirated, petrol engine that produces 113 hp and 143.8 Nm torque. The HX4 variant on the other hand, is only offered with the manual transmission. Moreover, both the variants benefit from Hyundai’s 35 standard safety features package that includes 6 airbags, hill start-stop, ABS, EBD and more.

What Makes Them Value For Money?

If you are looking for a low-maintenance, reliable and efficient sedan, then the Verna HX4 and HX6 variants fit the criteria mainly because they come with the naturally aspirated petrol engine, instead of the 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine, which is tuned for higher performance. The HX6 trim level opens the option of an IVT automatic, which is again known for its reliability among automatic options. Considering the 35 standard safety features and equipment, such as an electric sunroof and cruise control, are available from the HX4 variant itself, most prospective buyers are likely to find the right balance between the HX4 and HX6 variants of the facelifted Verna sedan.
