Hyundai Verna 2026 Engine Specifications

The Verna remains mechanically unchanged, retaining its platform and proven 1.5-litre petrol engines - a naturally aspirated unit producing 113 bhp and 143 Nm torque, and a turbocharged version delivering 158 bhp and 253 Nm.

Transmission choices remain a six-speed manual and a CVT for the naturally aspirated engine, and a seven-speed DCT for the turbo.

These updates are expected to help the Verna better compete against rivals like the Honda City, Volkswagen Virtus and Skoda Slavia.
