Hyundai Verna gets dual airbags as standard; & an AVN system

Hyundai's once feature-loaded sedan, the Verna, has begun looking dated and is falling short in terms of features to immediate competitors like the City and Ciaz. Its sales have seen a downward sloping trend and the car barely manages to sell ~1,200 units month after month (6 month average). Hyundai has now added a new 7" touchscreen audio video navigation (AVN) system to spice up the interiors.

This move comes in months after the Elite i20 and i20 Active were launched with a 7" AVN system. The infotainment system comes with pre-loaded maps, satellite-based voice guided navigation, pre-saved routes, a suggestive keyboard and a reverse camera display. It has Bluetooth connectivity for telephony and music streaming.

In addition, the Verna now comes with a new shark-fin radio antenna. Hyundai will also offer dual airbags as standard across all variants. Previously, lower variants came with only ABS as standard. The company will provide a 3 year / unlimited kilometre standard warranty on the car.

No other mechanical changes have been made.
