Interestingly, it's one of the better looking Hyundai cars, besides being way more VFM than the City, which is just overpriced.

Can't wait to see if it can shake some of our faiths in the VW TDi mill though.

Honda City diesel will most likely be detuned, like in the Amaze, due to the limitations of the CVT gearbox. Expect figures similar to 79 BHP and 160 Nm.

Verna, on the other hand, has 113 BHP and 255 Nm! Mated to the 6 speed torque converter - this combination offers brisk acceleration even in the Seltos.

CVT may offer an amazingly smooth experience, but the Hyundai-Kia 1.5 diesel offers far better refinement in general. However - pricing will be interesting as Honda is charging far less for the CVT option in the Amaze, as compared to what Hyundai is charging for this 6 speed TC.

There has been so much talk about how badly priced the Yaris is and how Verna has been a real vfm offering, the tables have turned actually.

Yaris G opt CVT variant is just 15K more than Verna SX variant. Equivalent proper automatic car for the price of a manual offering ! Yes Verna offers a sun roof and digital MID extra while Yaris has got one extra airbag and Brake assist.

Did Honda delay the City launch intentionally? Might very well be the case! SX trim is decently priced and lot of goodies. Although the heart would say City, mind will pik Verna for most folks.

the interior doesn't seem to be an upgrade over the upcoming i20's, which looks so immaculate and posh! It's odd to see the screen not flush with the upper edge of the dashboard, giving it the appearance of that from the lesser: Venue

This has always been the case with Verna since the time difference between the launch of an all new i20 and all new Verna has been about 3 years, with the Verna always playing the catch up game. The 1st gen i20 when launched in 2008, made the Verna of that time feel old. The present gen i20 when launched in 2014 made the previous gen Verna feel old, the 4S facelift of 2015 brought some welcome changes, but you could still figure out a generation difference between both the cars.

The cycle is bound to repeat again and again.

Verna SX also gets a parking camera, auto-dimming IRVM, auto-headlamps, leather-wrapped steering wheel, touchscreen audio system with android auto and apple carplay, cruise control etc.

Feature-wise, it should be compared against the Yaris V(optional) CVT which is much more expensive.

I am keen on checking out the SX IVT variant, which comes in at around 11.95 Ex-Showroom, it ticks all the right boxes for me and has some goodies as well like the sunroof etc along with the reliability of the IVT, which I believe is the same unit from the creta and seltos.
It's a whole Lac more than the top end Ciaz, but the extra goodies and cabin quality feel worth it, when the difference in EMI will be around 2k per month.

Awaiting some inputs from anyone whose had a chance to drive it.

i'm in the market for a sedan and confused between Verna and City. Verna looks very well priced and offers great bang for the buck.

Looking forward to a test drive of the IVT.

Anybody know showrooms in South Delhi with SX (O) Turbo in stock? Checked Koncept Hyundai in Kailash Colony yesterday which did not have the Verna in stock at all. When I try to book a test drive online Hyundai's website auto registers interest for the Rohini showroom which is in the opposite side of town.

A confusion between City and Verna means you are looking for a petrol sedan only. Honda City's petrol is said to be better than Verna's anytime, though Verna's new 1L turbo petrol will be in a different league. You have to test drive it and see.

i've seen the honda city and the new Verna and Verna to me seems to have better interiors and over all cabin feel which is quite important to me. Also the SX variant of Verna is fairly well loaded, the model with similar creature comforts in Honda city is quite out of my budget.

I somehow feel Honda city is not as well made as they used to be in the earlier generations.

This point is bang on target and has also been mentioned multiple times on the Honda cars & Honda City forums. The famed ‘Honda Quality’ is a thing of past now. While on the brighter side, I feel Hyundai cars have matched up to the quality levels what Honda used to offer earlier & dare I say they are a notch above.
I feel the only area wherein the Verna lags behind the City is in the rear seat space, especially the headroom. But overall, the Verna definitely gives a tough competition to the City & should be the one to pick, especially in the Diesel guise.
