Electric Sunroof and Connected Tech: Check the Expected Price and Feature Suite of Hyundai’s New Bayon
Hyundai Motor India is gearing up to introduce its global crossover SUV, the Bayon, to the domestic market. Industry estimates indicate that the vehicle could start around ₹8 lakh to ₹10 lakh for base trims and go up to ₹13 lakh to ₹14 lakh for top-spec variants.
Hyundai Motor India is preparing to expand its urban SUV footprint with the anticipated launch of the Hyundai Bayon in the domestic market. Industry estimates and dealership projections suggest that the crossover could start at an ex-showroom price of around ₹8 lakh to ₹10 lakh for its entry-level variant, while fully loaded top-tier models could reach between ₹13 lakh and ₹14 lakh. While official pricing and delivery timelines remain under wraps, the model aims to strengthen Hyundai’s competitive stance in India's fast-growing sub-compact and crossover SUV segment.
Expected Pricing and Positioning
Automotive analysts project that Hyundai will position the Bayon strategically between the Exter and the Venue, or alongside the i20 hatchback platform, to capture urban buyers seeking SUV styling with manageable city dimensions.
An introductory price starting near the ₹8 lakh to ₹10 lakh bracket would place the vehicle directly in contention with established entry-level crossovers. Higher-end trims—equipped with turbocharged engines, dual-clutch transmissions, and advanced safety packages—are likely to command upwards of ₹13 lakh, offering buyers an alternative to larger midsize SUVs.
BAYON has entered the chat.
And yes, it brought the attitude with it.

Design, Powertrain, and Features
In international markets, the Hyundai Bayon is built on the automaker’s modular platform and features a distinct aesthetic defined by split LED headlamps, angular daytime running lights, sharp body contours, and sculpted rear LED lighting signatures.
For the Indian market, the model is expected to offer versatile powertrain options, including a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine for entry trims and a 1.0-litre three-cylinder turbo-petrol unit for performance-focused variants. Transmission choices will likely encompass both manual and automatic (DCT) gearboxes. On the inside, expectations center on a 10.25-inch infotainment display, digital instrument cluster, wireless smartphone connectivity, multiple airbags as standard, electronic stability control, and potential Level 2 driver-assistance capabilities on flagship trims.
