Fresh spy shots of the upcoming Hyundai Verna facelift have surfaced from India, revealing key updates to the sedan’s Hyundai Verna Facelift Interior and rear design. The refreshed model is expected to be launched in the first half of 2026 and will receive design and feature enhancements while retaining its existing mechanical setup.
The latest test mule offers a clearer look at the cabin layout, suggesting that Hyundai is focusing on technology and design upgrades to keep the mid-size sedan competitive.

Hyundai Verna Facelift Interior: Venue-Inspired Dashboard & Digital Displays
The biggest change inside the Verna facelift appears to be a redesigned dashboard inspired by the Hyundai Venue. The test vehicle features a new three-spoke steering wheel with Hyundai’s Morse Code-style ‘H’ design element, a styling cue already seen on models such as the Ioniq 5 and Creta Electric.
A new fully digital driver’s display, likely a 12.3-inch unit, has also been spotted. The infotainment system is expected to be integrated into the same freestanding panel, and could also measure 12.3 inches, replacing the current 10.25-inch setup.
The cabin follows an all-black theme with red stitching, along with red and white ambient lighting strips. Features such as ventilated front seats, a powered driver’s seat and a single-pane sunroof are likely to be carried forward.
Exterior Tweaks Limited to Rear
On the outside, the facelift brings subtle changes rather than a full redesign. The test mule shows a revised rear bumper with a new diffuser element finished in silver for added contrast.
The connected LED lighting signature appears unchanged, and the car continues to run on 16-inch alloy wheels. While earlier overseas sightings hinted at possible headlamp revisions, the India-spec test car does not clearly reveal any front-end changes.
Powertrain to Remain Unchanged
Mechanically, the Verna facelift is expected to continue with the current engine lineup:
- 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol – 115 hp
- 1.5-litre turbo-petrol – 160 hp
Both engines will likely remain available with manual and automatic transmission options.
Hyundai has also announced plans to introduce multiple hybrid models in India, and the Verna could potentially receive a hybrid option in the future, although no official confirmation has been provided for this update.
What It Means for Buyers
With rivals such as the Honda City, Volkswagen Virtus and Skoda Slavia also due for updates, Hyundai’s focus on larger screens and a refreshed cabin aims to strengthen the Verna’s technology appeal.
The facelifted model is expected to carry a slight price increase over the current version, which is priced between Rs 12.72 lakh and Rs 20.11 lakh (ex-showroom).
Conclusion: The upcoming Hyundai Verna Facelift Interior will primarily focus on interior technology and minor design revisions while retaining its existing engines. With testing already underway, the updated sedan is on track for a market debut in India sometime in early 2026.
