-Side & Curtain airbags
-Smart key with push button start
-Chrome door handles
-Leather door center trim
-Light adjustment for the instrument cluster
-Adjustable rear seat headrests
-Leather seats
-Ventilated seats
-Connected car technology
-Smart trunk
-Luggage hook and net in the boot

If this is true and these features have been chopped from the top end Diesel Automatic then Hyundai has made yet another glaring mistake by short changing customers who are willing to pay for these premium features. An utter shame!

As you've already pointed out, both are good or bad depending on who attends to you and who cares for sales.. there may be great people in both Advaith and Trident. Sales wise I've heard that both are neck and neck as both have different areas of operation and Trident being first in Bangalore possesses a slight edge in terms of locations (the head sales showroom is in the absolute poshest area in the city - Sadashivnagar). Advaith has it in Residency Road but no comparison.

My suggestion is - go for whoever is promising earliest delivery and maybe better/sweeter deals i.e freebies or flexibility in choosing insurance and overall friendliness. You can find out just by talking to the salesperson. Trident is overall better is my view.

I felt Trident more friendly and they gave a test drive immediately. I have booked Petrol SX variant with them with September delivery commitment. No freebies, discounts as such. Haven't checked on flexibility in Insurance.

I bought my car from Advaith ORR. Before the purchase, I had also visited Trident near KR Puram bridge. Both the dealers were offering similar discounts.

Advaith ORR is extremely close to my workplace and their Graphite service center is very close to my residence. Hence, I went ahead with Advaith.

However, as previously mentioned, go with the dealer giving you the earliest delivery and the best deal.

It would be funny to see how much they saved with the below

-Chrome door handles
-Light adjustment for the instrument cluster
-Luggage hook and net in the boot

I sometimes wonder about the significance of buying a top end only to know that it isn't indeed "top-end".

Can someone post pix of EX model and give a feedback on the petrol Auto?

Adding a video I took while someone else was driving ( diesel auto in 'auto' and manual mode).

Do you mind share the date ,location and the variant of your booking ?

Thanks X-Factor. I have pre booked the car with Kun United Hyundai in Andhra Pradesh, However, the dealer has entered it into GDMS(Hyundai Official booking) on 23rd August. I was Keen on Getting CRDI EX but the dealer said that they have been allotted CRDI SX which will reach them by 30th August, So went ahead with SX.


Regarding the follow up with the dealer, I know the sales advisor very well as he was the same guy from whom I have purchased elite I20. So he was very transparent and helpful in getting the car allotted to me.

Also invoicing will take time and will definitely be past the cess hike date. Do you guys think it's wise to pay the booking amount (Petrol SX) anyway and cancel if the ex-showroom exceeds 10lac (which most likely it will?)

P.S.: The sales guy didn't seem much interested in pushing a sale. I hope it's because of the high demand+month start, and not because I was wearing shorts (visited the showroom while returning from Kicks on Grass).

Refer this post where I have shared the Cess Hike Notification. Looks like Government is pushing for cess hike sooner than we expected.http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/indian...ml#post4263548.

So, just came back after inspecting the car (Diesel EX Auto) at the stockyard and I have taken a lot of pics and videos which I will post as soon as I get some time. The car looks really nice (Sienna Brown is what I have chosen) and I can't wait to take the delivery later this week.

Booked Petrol SX from Trident Hosur in Silver. Still confused about the color though (silver vs black/stardust)

Insurance can be taken from outside. Their cancellation fee is actually 3.5k, managed to reduce it to 1.5k, no other freebie/discount. I was promised delivery within this month.

Two SXs and a EX. Its raining Verna here . Congratulations all of you on your new rides. Many happy and safe miles!

[arit.mondal]

There is a belief that a sedan looks best in it's signature colour used in it's marketing brochures. Hence my humble request to anyone who receives delivery of new Verna in black, please post pictures under daylight as early and from as many angles as possible. Thanks in advance!

[Tanks]

Convinced parents to book SX(O) AT petrol. Feature list, looks and comfort and convenience of AT was a deciding factor. I had initially convinced them to book the creta SX+ AT, but then the verna came out, and after seeing the feature list i was scratching my head as to why the creta was devoid of features like auto Dimming mirror, cooled glove box etc.

Booked the car in silver, it's supposedly on it's way. I honestly don't get feature allocation in cars. When did adjustable headrests and an mid become limited to top varients only.

As per the latest Sales Charts Verna has sold 4,779 units in August. A very decent number indeed and this has happened without any lowering of numbers on the City or Ciaz or the Creta. So the segment itself expanded to accommodate another good car

[bhpfaninblr]

Searched quite a bit on the forum and but could not get the answers to the following:
- Unladen & Laden Ground clearance of the new Verna
- Kerb & Gross Weight of the new Verna
- 0-100 kph time in seconds

If anyone have the above information, please do share the same.
