The manual Vernas are offered in four variants, while the automatic versions are available in two. It’s worth highlighting, however, that the diesel automatic is the only version of the Verna that isn’t sold in full-spec SX (O) trim. Rather, the diesel auto range tops off in unique SX+ trim that misses some features.

As standard, the Verna gets dual front airbags, Isofix child seat mounts on the rear seats and anti-lock brakes, while the SX (O) variants see the addition of side and curtain airbags too. While reach adjust for the steering, LED headlights and auto wipers are not on the equipment list, fully loaded Vernas come with most of what you’d expect – leatherette seats, a touchscreen infotainment system, a rear-view camera with dynamic guidelines, cruise control, keyless entry and go, auto climate control, rear air con vents and a comprehensive multi-info display, to name a few. And then there’s more. The Verna gets class-first ventilated front seats that work really well to keep you cool on hot days, while a manually retractable sunscreen for the rear windscreen also comes handy when the sun is out in full force. An electric sunroof is also onboard and Hyundai has also given the Verna a hands-free boot release. Stand by the boot for 3sec, with the key in your pocket, and the trunk will open on its own; handy when both of you have packets in both hands. Also unique is Hyundai’s Auto Link that relays your car’s health and more straight to your smartphone.
