The new Verna sports an integrated, dual-screen set-up. This is very similar to the one we see on the Ioniq 5. Other than that the sedan also gets two 10.25-inch screens – one for the infotainment system and the other for the digital instrument cluster. The next-gen Verna also benefits from an 8-speaker system tuned by Bose. This is very similar to all other Hyundai and Kia models and thus replaces the Arkamys sound module.

Furthermore, the new Verna also gets benefits from a host of segment-first features. This includes a switchable unit for controlling the infotainment system and HVAC and heated seats. The upcoming Verna will continue to get ventilated front seats, as was the case with the outgoing model.
