Verna 2020 was scheduled for an earlier launch but Hyundai had to push back plans owing to the national lockdown that remains in place to check the spread of Covid-19 disease. With digital sales channels being strengthened, the new Verna's pricing details were already out on Hyundai website.

That Hyundai is continuing to offer the sedan in diesel comes as no surprise because the company, unlike many others, has said it continues to see a demand for it. As such, the now smaller 1.5-litre CRDi engine produces 115ps@4,000rpm and torque figures of 25.5kgm@1500~2750rpm. The 1.5-litre MPI petrol engine on the other hand delivers max power of 115ps@6,300rpm and has max torque rating of 14.7kgm@4,500rpm. Since the 1.6-litre units have been done away with, the sedan could get a bump up in mileage.

The 1.0-litre turbo petrol, however, would most certainly attract buyers and while only available in the SX (O) Turbo variant, it belts out 120ps@6,000rpm of peak power with max torque rating at 17.5kgm@1,500~4000rpm. This is also the only variant to get paddle shifters and a seven-speed DCT gearbox while all other variants make do with either CVT, six-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission unit.
