The Hyundai Verna Fluidic Diesel SX Automatic has been discontinued as part of the broader update and refresh cycle of the Verna model line. The 2017-2020 version of the Verna, which included the Fluidic design, was phased out to make way for newer generations of the Verna with updated features, improved performance, and compliance with newer emission standards. Additionally, the discontinuation allowed Hyundai to focus on models that addressed customer complaints such as lower ground clearance, mileage issues, and after-sales service concerns associated with the older models.

The 2014 Verna 1.6 SX would be a winner if considered from the performance point of view. It comes with a much responsive 1591 cc, 4-cylinder petrol motor producing 121.4 BHP @ 6300 rpm and 154.94 NM @ 4200 rpm. The Verna comes mated to a 5-speed gearbox and returns a 13-14 kmpl mileage. On the other hand the Honda City diesel VX diesel is a mileage oriented car with 25.1 kmpl of certified mileage. The Honda City comes with a 1.5 L engine producing 98.6 BHP @ 3,600 rpm and 200 NM @ 1,750 rpm. It gets a 6-speed manual transmission. The Verna would easily get away with its high power output whereas both will compete tough on the top speed end.
