The list of features is also going to be long. Features such as automatic climate control, electrically adjustable driver seat, ADAS technology, 8-speaker Bose sound system, four-spoke multi-function steering wheel and electric ORVMs can make it significantly stronger in segments.
Engine Options
Talking about engines, the engine options of the new Bayon can also be quite interesting. According to reports, it is likely to get a 1.2-liter naturally aspirated petrol engine and a 1.0-liter three-cylinder turbo petrol engine.
In addition Hyundai is also working on a new 1.2-liter turbo petrol engine, which will be hybrid-ready. It is believed that this engine can also power the new Bayon in times to come. The move is a major signal towards making Hyundai a future-ready, especially when Maruti is also working on a hybrid version of Fronx.
