All that, in addition to the new range of BS6 compliant engines, will add a premium to the price tag, however, Hyundai will also want to keep the pricing aggressive, and it is likely to achieve that by offering more variants. This will allow the Korean carmaker to offer an aggressive base-price, which could start around Rs. 6.35 lakh, while the top-end model with all the bells and whistles could be priced around Rs. 10.25 lakh (all ex-showroom).
