Hyundai Motor India recently launched the new-generation Hyundai Verna with naturally-aspirated and turbocharged petrol engines, discontinuing its diesel range of the compact sedan. According to the company, the new Hyundai Verna has received an overwhelming response that has helped the company double its volumes from its outgoing model.
Garg added, “This strong growth has been backed by an overwhelming response to the recently launched all-new Hyundai Verna, which has more than doubled its volumes from its earlier version.”
Moreover, the company is currently preparing for the launch of the new Hyundai Exter, its entry-level micro SUV that will rival the likes of the Tata Punch and the Maruti Suzuki S-Presso in the Indian market. The new SUV will be positioned below the Hyundai Venue in the company’s SUV line-up.
