Hyundai has now added a third engine option for the Verna. A 1.4-litre petrol engine, apart from the existing 1.6-litre petrol and 1.6-litre diesel engines, is available on the base E and EX trims, priced at Rs. 7.80 lakh and Rs. 9.10 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) respectively. The company has meanwhile discontinued the petrol 1.6 E and 1.6 EX MT variants.

In terms of equipment, the Verna 1.4 E and 1.4 EX get the same features as the entry-level variants with the 1.6-litre engine. On the outside, the Verna 1.4 gets halogen headlights, chrome grille, electric ORVMs with integrated turn signals and steel wheels. 

The interiors are finished in a dual-tone. Features like automatic climate control and 5.0-inch touchscreen audio system is available on the EX trim. Safety features like ABS, driver and passenger airbags and ISOFIX child seat mounting points are standard. Additionally, the EX variant gets Park Assist with rear camera, front fog lamps, automatic headlamps with escort function, impact and speed sensing auto door locks and keyless entry.

The 1.4-litre Kappa, 4-cylinder petrol engine offered on the Verna is identical to the engine that powers the Elite i20 automatic. It produces 98.6 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 133 Nm of peak torque @ 4,000 rpm and is only offered with a 6-speed manual gearbox. Hyundai claims that the Verna 1.4 delivers a fuel economy of 19.1 km/l.
