Hyundai Verna Safety Rating: A New Benchmark in Protection
An Introduction to Exemplary Safety
The Hyundai Verna’s safety accolades are the talk of the town, and for good reason. It’s not just a car; it’s a fortress on wheels. The latest round of Global NCAP’s rigorous ‘Safer Cars For India’ crash tests saw the Verna achieving an outstanding five-star rating. This leap in safety standards from previous models underscores Hyundai’s unwavering commitment to passenger protection.
The Ratings Explained
The Verna’s dual five-star ratings for adult and child occupant protection echo the sound of Hyundai’s promise: safety is paramount. Achieving 28.18 out of 34 points for adults and 42 out of 49 for children, the Verna demonstrates that every journey can be a safe journey.
Adult and Child Occupant Protection
From the driver’s seat to the tiny tots in the back, the Verna’s cocoon of safety is robust. While the knees may find the dashboard’s protection marginal, the head and neck can rest assured of superior safeguarding. Despite the bodyshell and footwell area being marked as areas for improvement, the Verna’s shield remains steadfast.

8.5/10The Hyundai Verna was always an admired sedan in the country. It has surmounted several competitors and challenges en route toward becoming one of the company’s most successful sedans in the Indian market. The Verna first arrived in 2011 and got another makeover in 2017, followed by an updated version in 2020.
The Verna gets a refreshed and attractive design as has been its hallmark for several years. There is a bigger and frameless grille in front, along with a sportier look and creases and cuts aplenty. The fog lamps are swept back and a tiny spoiler is present as well. The coupe-Esque roofline and the boot spoiler come from the previous version while the new alloys also look stylish enough. The Verna has also been raised slightly, giving it a taller stance. The exhaust tips get a chrome finish at the back although the lower bumper treatment does not look as appealing (although opinions are subjective).
Pros
Cons
The Verna is reloaded and back. Is there enough here to impress? Yes. Don't get us wrong there could have been more - if you want to be greedy! But for the most part. The car remains one of the most modern, relevant, connected offerings with a huge array of variants to fit many budgets. And a lot of the equipment is standard across variants. The Toyota Yaris has failed to make a dent in this segment, though has its merits.
Hyundai New Verna Ex-Showroom price ranges from ₹ 10.69 to 16.98 Lakh. Hyundai offers New Verna in 17 variants. The top variant of New Verna is 1.5 Turbo GDi SX (O) DCT Dual Tone and the base variant is 1.5 MPI EX MT.
