New Hyundai Lineup Planned

Hyundai Motor India launched the new Aura facelift last month. It is priced from Rs 6.29 lakh to Rs 8.72 lakh for petrol variants while its CNG counterparts come in at starting price of Rs 8.1 lakh and Rs 8.87 lakh (all prices ex-showroom).

The new Aura gets first in segment features that allow it to compete efficiently with the Maruti Suzuki Dzire, Tata Tigor and Honda Amaze which could also relate to increased sales in the months ahead.

HMIL will next launch the new 2023 Venue facelift and N Line. These will be introduced with a host of exterior and interior updates along with extensive safety equipment. Hyundai has also introduced some cosmetic updates to the Grand i10 NIOS which gets an RDE compliant petrol and petrol + CNG engine lineup.

Hyundai Genesis GV80 has also been spied on test in India. This is a luxury SUV that rivals the likes of Mercedes-Benz GLE, Audi Q7, BMW X5 and Volvo XC90. It is expected to be launched in India this year.
