If you've been reading TURBOCHARGED, you will know about my love for sedans. And to see the Hyundai Verna go back after being with us for over a year, is a little saddening. More so because the Verna in question is the one with the 160PS, 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine under its hood, mated to the slick shifting 7-speed DCT. In fact everyone in the office fell in love with the Verna unanimously, for more than just its performance. The new Verna has also set benchmarks in terms of comfort and has been lauded as a family car. It has also addressed the biggest shortcoming of the Verna's previous iterations, that of a lack of space, especially kneeroom at the rear, with aplomb. This is besides its cavernous boot which I once remember gobbling down three large suitcases and two large bags and two small ones without a hitch!
