A week ago we reported of a sedan version of Hyundai i40 which was on the cards and lately it has been unveiled at the 2011 Barcelona Motor Show. Now that the sedan has been unwrapped, the possibilities of it coming to Indian shores are very much.

A few days back Hyundai had launched the all new Hyundai Verna which derives its looks from the Hyundai RB Concept and is expected to give cut throat competition to existing sedans.  As expected the car isn’t too pricy and has been competitively priced. We are talking about the new Verna because from the design point of view the Verna and i40 both follow the new ‘fluidic sculpture’ but when talking in terms of price, the i40 is very much confusing.

The identity of the car is completely European and has been designed at the European R&D headquarters of Hyundai in Rüsselsheim, Germany. The car will go on sale in the final quarter of current year, supported by a host of goodies including Five Year Triple Care.

At the very occasion, Allan Rushforth, Senior Vice President and COO of Hyundai Motor Europe, commented, “The reveal of the sedan represents the next step of the i40’s introduction to the European market, following the very positive reception for the i40 wagon. The Hyundai i40 sedan shares the same qualities found in the wagon, including outstanding levels of fuel-efficiency, comfort, and quality, and broadens the appeal of the i40 to buyers in the D-segment,”
