Okay, so next year looks interesting for sedan lovers.I've wandered showrooms for years. conversing with dealers and having sufficient driving experience to determine authenticity. Indeed, three names keep coming up. 2026 Volkswagen Virtus, 2026 Skoda Slavia, and 2026 Hyundai Verna facelifts. SUVs are ubiquitous and very popular. Sedans, however, still have a certain allure. These facelifts, really? Staying in the game is more important than changing things up.
2026 Hyundai Verna Facelift: Small Tweaks, Big Comfort
Hyundai is going for small but noticeable changes. Leaked images show sharper front, aggressive headlights, and the touchscreen lag people hated might be fixed. But I remember testing a Verna last year, the system froze mid-drive. So yeah, I’m cautiously hopeful. Interior seating feels better too. Seriously, 2 hours stuck in traffic make a small seat upgrade feel huge.

Skoda never shouts but keeps you safe on long drives. The facelift is subtle bolder grille, updated tail lamps, maybe some tech tweaks.

The Virtus keeps its calm charm. Expect sharper lines, small headlight redesign, maybe a better infotainment system. VW claims more space and better handling. But last year I drove a Virtus and the "silent cabin" was anything but silent on rough roads. Build quality still solid though.
