A panel comprising of seasoned automotive journalists from electronic media publications with a monthly readership exceeding 250 million worldwide chose the winners of the esteemed Acer FASTER Awards. The following people were on the 2024 Acer FASTER Awards jury:
Cars like the Verna serve as a reminder of the value and enduring appeal of the sedan body style in an era where SUVs predominate. Within its roomy design, the 2023 Hyundai Verna prioritises driving performance, comfort, and practicality while skillfully fusing captivating aesthetics with a technologically advanced interior.
By raising the bar for contemporary midsize sedans, it challenges rivals to meet its standards. It sets itself apart with a smooth integration of cutting-edge technology, excellent driving dynamics, and an alluring exterior design—all while keeping things functional.
It provides comfort with a standard three-year/unlimited-kilometer warranty as well as three years of roadside assistance, which can be extended to seven years. In the category of four-wheelers, the Hyundai Verna Ioniq 5 has been named the EV of the Year. The brand’s flagship electric car in India distinguishes itself from rivals with affordable prices and a distinctive blend of ancient design elements and modern features.
By utilising the ideas of the Sensuous Sportiness design philosophy, this design approach produces an aesthetically pleasing and well-balanced appearance. The E-GMP platform and three-meter wheelbase of the Hyundai Verna Ioniq 5 allow for a creative and adaptable interior design with plenty of room.
It has powerful performance capabilities and is made entirely of environmentally friendly materials. With a 350 kW DC charger, it can charge from 10% to 80% in just 18 minutes. Unquestionably, both Hyundai models are worthy winners!
