Hyundai Motor India launched the Bayon in India on Monday, October 26, 2026, at an introductory ex-showroom price of Rs 9.99 lakh, according to CarToq, AutoPunditz and ETV Bharat.
ETV Bharat gives the price as Rs 9,99,900, and some outlets round it to Rs 10 lakh.
CarDekho lists the range at Rs 10 lakh to Rs 18 lakh ex-showroom, with the top HX10 petrol manual at Rs 16.65 lakh and the automatic at Rs 18 lakh, according to CarDekho. ETV Bharat’s article gives no price by variant.
Bookings are open for Rs 11,000 through Hyundai’s India website and authorised dealerships, according to ETV Bharat.
Deliveries are expected to begin during the upcoming festive season, according to ETV Bharat.
The Bayon is positioned between the Venue and the Creta, and the Maruti Victoris is named as a rival, according to the reports.
The engine is a 1.5-litre four-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol, according to ETV Bharat.
The reports give the power as about 113 bhp, and differ on the torque, with 143.8 Nm in one report and 114 Nm in another, so the official figure should be checked.
Before launch, Hyundai’s confirmed figures were 115 PS and 144 Nm, according to Carlelo, which also differs from the launch reports.
The gearbox is a 6-speed manual or Hyundai’s iVT automatic, according to ETV Bharat.
A CNG version is planned for 2027 and is expected to pair only with the 6-speed manual, according to ETV Bharat.
