The new SUV expands Hyundai&#8217;s lineup below the Creta and combines a 1.5-litre petrol engine with advanced connectivity, a dual-screen cockpit and Level 2 Pro ADAS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Hyundai Bayon is available with a six-speed manual transmission and an Intelligent Variable Transmission (iVT) automatic. Bookings are open through Hyundai dealerships and its official website, with the booking amount set at \u20b911,000. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hyundai.com\/in\/en\/hyundai-story\/media-center\/press-release\/hmil-unveils-india-spec-hyundai-bayon-redefining-intelligent-mobility-through-intelligence-that-moves\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Official Hyundai announcement<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hyundai Bayon Price in India<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbikebhp.com\/new-cars\/hyundai\/bayon\">Hyundai Bayon<\/a><\/strong> starts at \u20b99.99 lakh (ex-showroom), making its introductory price an important part of its positioning in India&#8217;s competitive SUV market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><th>Detail<\/th><th>Information<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>Starting price<\/td><td>\u20b99.99 lakh (ex-showroom)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Engine<\/td><td>1.5-litre MPi petrol<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Maximum power<\/td><td>115 PS<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Peak torque<\/td><td>143.8 Nm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Transmission options<\/td><td>6-speed manual, iVT automatic<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Booking amount<\/td><td>\u20b911,000<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Launch date<\/td><td>26 October 2026<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The introductory price is not the same as the on-road price, which will vary depending on the city, insurance, registration charges and applicable taxes. Buyers should check the final variant-wise price with an authorised Hyundai dealership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Engine and Transmission<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Hyundai Bayon uses a four-cylinder, 1.5-litre MPi naturally aspirated petrol engine producing 115 PS and 143.8 Nm of torque.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Buyers can choose between a six-speed manual gearbox and Hyundai&#8217;s iVT automatic transmission. The automatic version also gets paddle shifters, selectable Eco, Normal and Sport drive modes, Dash Boost Mode and Sporty Drive Tech.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hyundai says the powertrain has been engineered to deliver smooth performance in city traffic and on highways. An official fuel-efficiency figure should be checked against the final variant specifications before making a mileage comparison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Features: Dual Screens and Generative AI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Technology is one of the Hyundai Bayon&#8217;s main selling points. The SUV gets two 12.3-inch displays, creating a connected digital cockpit for the instrument cluster and infotainment system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other key features include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Generative AI voice assistant incorporating intelligence from Perplexity and voice technology from SoundHound AI.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>NVIDIA-accelerated Connected Car Navigation Cockpit (ccNC).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hyundai Bluelink with more than 70 connected features.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Over-the-air updates for supported vehicle controllers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multilingual interface supporting Indian regional languages.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More than 500 embedded voice commands, available in English, Hindi, Tamil, Bengali, Telugu and Hinglish.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The equipment aims to make navigation, vehicle information and connected functions easier to access. Actual feature availability should be checked by variant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Safety Features and ADAS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hyundai has equipped the Bayon with SmartSense Level 2 Pro ADAS, a reinforced body structure and a range of active and passive safety systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company says the SUV is built on its Global K Enhanced Platform and engineered to meet five-star Indian safety standards. This is a manufacturer design claim, not a substitute for an independently published Bharat NCAP crash-test rating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Buyers should verify the standard safety equipment and ADAS functions on their preferred variant before booking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should You Consider the Hyundai Bayon?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Hyundai Bayon could appeal to buyers looking for a technology-focused petrol SUV with the choice of a manual or automatic transmission. Its starting price of \u20b99.99 lakh (ex-showroom) also makes it worth considering for customers comparing SUVs around the \u20b910 lakh mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the entry price alone does not establish which variant offers the best value. Buyers should compare equipment, on-road prices, fuel efficiency, rear-seat comfort and ownership costs before deciding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CarBikeBHP verdict:<\/strong> The Bayon&#8217;s strongest initial attractions are its connected-car technology, AI assistant, dual displays and available Level 2 Pro ADAS. Its overall value will depend on variant-wise pricing and how its equipment compares with competing SUVs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Prices and specifications are based on information available at launch on 26 October 2026.
