Hyundai is gearing up for a massive product offensive in India, with plans to launch 26 new models by 2030, including six electric vehicles (EVs). The automaker aims to strengthen its position in the competitive Indian market, focusing on SUVs, premium sedans, and eco-friendly mobility solutions.
But what exactly can we expect from Hyundai’s upcoming lineup? Let’s break it down.
Hyundai’s Strategy: SUVs, EVs, and Premium Models
Hyundai has been a dominant player in India, thanks to popular models like the Creta, Venue, and i20. Now, the brand is doubling down with a mix of refreshed ICE (internal combustion engine) cars, new-generation SUVs, and electric vehicles.
1. Six New Electric Vehicles (EVs) by 2030
Hyundai has already introduced the Kona Electric and Ioniq 5 in India, but the real push starts now. The six upcoming EVs will likely include:
- Hyundai Creta EV (2025) – The electric version of India’s best-selling SUV.
- Hyundai Casper EV – A compact electric SUV based on the global model.
- Affordable Mass-Market EV – Likely positioned below ₹20 lakh to rival Tata’s upcoming EVs.
- Ioniq 6 – A sleek electric sedan to compete with the Tesla Model 3 (if launched in India).
- Two More Unnamed EVs – Possibly an electric version of the Venue or a new global EV model.
2. Next-Gen Hyundai Creta & Creta Facelift
The Creta is Hyundai’s best-seller, and a new generation is expected by 2025-26, with a facelift coming sooner. It will get updated styling, more tech, and possibly a hybrid variant.
3. New Hyundai Verna (2024) & More Premium Sedans
The next-gen Verna is already here with a sportier design and advanced features. Hyundai may also introduce a new premium sedan to rival the Honda City and Skoda Slavia.
4. Hyundai Alcazar Update & New 7-Seater SUV
The Alcazar will likely get a major update by 2025. Additionally, Hyundai is working on a new 7-seater SUV (possibly named Tuscon) to compete with the Tata Safari and Mahindra XUV700.
5. Hyundai Venue & Exter Updates
The Venue will receive a facelift in 2024 with updated styling and features. The Exter, Hyundai’s micro-SUV, could also get an electric version in the future.
6. Hyundai N Line Performance Models
Hyundai is expanding its N Line performance range in India. Expect sportier versions of the i20 N Line, Venue N Line, and possibly the Creta N Line.
Hyundai’s EV Roadmap & Charging Infrastructure
Hyundai is investing heavily in local EV production to reduce costs. The brand is also working on expanding fast-charging networks across India to support its upcoming electric cars.
Conclusion: Hyundai’s Aggressive Growth Plan
With 26 new models (including 6 EVs) in the pipeline, Hyundai is set to dominate multiple segments in India. The focus will be on SUVs, electric mobility, and premium offerings, ensuring the brand stays ahead of rivals like Tata, Mahindra, and Kia.
