The 2023 Hyundai Verna continues to rival other C2-segment sedans like the Honda City facelift, Skoda Slavia and Volkswagen Virtus. It is worth mentioning that the Maruti Suzuki Ciaz also rivals the new Verna but it falls in the C1-segment owing to its length measuring under 4.5 metres. All the arch rivals of the Ciaz now measure over 4.5 metres in length, thus falling in the C2-segment.
