Hyundai is getting ready to launch two new cars in India.
The first new car is a mid-size SUV that uses petrol or diesel fuel.
It will be launched during the festival season, around Dasara or Diwali.
The second new car is a smaller electric SUV that runs on batteries.
It will arrive by the end of the year.
The electric SUV will have smart features like driving assistance, connected car technology, and LED lights.
It will be similar to the Kia Syros EV, which was recently launched.
The new cars will compete with popular models like the Tata Nexon EV and the Mahindra XUV 3XO.
These launches are part of Hyundai's multi-model approach across different car segments.
Hyundai will launch a new mid-size ICE SUV during the festive season, around Dasara or Diwali.

The vehicle will be offered with petrol and diesel options, with a hybrid package expected by the end of the decade.
A sub-compact EV SUV, offering a package similar to the recently launched Kia Syros EV, is expected to arrive by the end of the year.
