Currently, it's unclear which markets will receive the India-made Hyundai Verna.

Mr Koo was quoted saying:

We are planning to make a new version of the Verna next year in the second half. India is one of the countries which will see increased exports of the Verna. The volume for Verna exports is yet to be finalised, but it will be significant.

Like the Hyundai Creta, the HMIL plant could churn out both LHD and RHD versions for export to a number of markets across the globe. As of now, it's unclear which markets will receive the India-made Hyundai Verna.
