The current Verna comes with a 1.5L turbo diesel engine that was recently updated to meet BS6 phase-2 and road driving emission (RDE) standards. Since the updated diesel engine is also offered in the Creta and Venue SUVs, Hyundai could have offered the same engine in the Verna as well. We are yet to know the reason behind Hyundai’s decision to drop the diesel engine from the upcoming Verna.

2023 Verna To Offer 2 Petrol Engine Options

In the current Verna, Hyundai offers a 1.5L normal petrol engine and a 1.0L turbo petrol engine. However, with the 2023 Verna, Hyundai have something special for buyers looking for more performance.

This engine will come with the option of a 6-speed manual and a 7-speed dual clutch transmission. The 1.5L normal petrol engine, on the other hand, will continue to come with a 6-speed manual and a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT).
