The new-gen Hyundai Verna spy shots have once again caused a buzz among sedan lovers with expected design and tech updates for an early 2026 launch. Here’s what to watch out for in the latest Hyundai Verna 2025 testing and upgrades.
Subtle Yet Stylish Design Tweaks
The upcoming New-Gen Hyundai Verna doesn’t stray far from the popular fourth-gen’s bold look launched in 2023. While the silhouette remains mostly unchanged, spy shots reveal subtle enhancements — refreshed front and rear lighting units, grille updates, and revised bumper styling.
The alloy wheels are reported to stay the same, maintaining the vehicle’s sporty stance. Notably, signature elements such as connected LED tail lamps and a boot-lid-mounted spoiler will continue to define the Verna’s rear profile.
Interior Gets a Tech Boost
he cabin of the new-gen Hyundai Verna is getting a major tech upgrade with a new curved dual-screen dashboard setup, replacing the current flat unit. This new infotainment system is inspired by the Hyundai Venue 2025, featuring a refreshed, user-friendly interface and possibly advanced connectivity options.
Key interior upgrades include:
- New curved dual-screen setup with two 12.3-inch displays
- Sleeker, sharper visuals enhancing tech appeal
- Refined user interface for easier interaction
- Inspired by Hyundai Venue’s infotainment system
- Modern D-cut steering wheel design for a sporty feel
- Tilt and telescopic steering adjustment for better ergonomics
- Steering-mounted audio and Bluetooth controls for convenience
Engine and Powertrain
Under the hood, the lineup is expected to remain unchanged, featuring the proven 1.5-litre MPi petrol engine (113.3 hp, 143.8 Nm) available with a 6-speed manual or IVT automatic transmission. For performance seekers, the 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine making 157.8 hp and 253 Nm remains on offer paired with either a 6-speed manual or 7-speed DCT automatic gearbox.

The upcoming Hyundai cars in India, especially the Verna facelift, are expected to keep competitors on notice as they blend style, technology, and proven performance seamlessly, appealing to urban families and executive buyers alike.
