Vernastic !!

Exterior Great looking car for the first time from Hyundai. Looks like a BMW from the back and side profile though not so great from the front but then Hyundai wants to make the hexagonal shape standard on all their cars.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior is very pleasant in Beige. The features provided are endless. Steering mounted controls, USB, Aux, Bluetooth, Start Stop all very great. Front seating is great with the seats fitting you snugly though the back seating is just Ok more to do with the thigh support and the high windows in the back. Rear view isnt great since the adjustable head rests block the view to a great extent.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is decent but not as fun as the previous verna which was a rocket. Overtaking in the older verna was a jiffy but the new diesel seems to take a little more effort. The 0 to 100 KMPH dash though shows as 10.5 seconds. Gearshift is very decent on this version and I hope the fuel economy should be around 17km realistically in city driving with AC turned on though ARAI claims 22 kms to a litre.

Ride Quality & Handling Great for city traffic. Yet to try it on the highway. The steering is very light and great for city conditions but gets your scared at high speeds on the highway. Yet to try it out.

Final Words A very good overall package from Hyundai. Best looking amongst Honda, Vento and the Linea. Great diesel engine and many features which will give the other cars in this segment a run for its money.

Areas of improvement Better control at high speeds.
