Hyundai Bayon India Launch Nears After Repeated Spy Shots
Hyundai is testing a vehicle called the Bayon in India and Europe.
Pictures of test cars are helping people understand what the India version may be like.
It appears to be bigger and more box-shaped than the Bayon sold in other countries.
The vehicle could compete with the Fronx.
It may also be closer in size to Hyundai’s Venue and Creta.
The Bayon could launch during the festive season around Diwali.
However, the exact launch date has not been confirmed.
Buyers are being advised to focus on repeated clues rather than a single spy photograph.
Hyundai Bayon test vehicles have been spotted multiple times in India and Europe.
The sightings suggest a bigger and boxier SUV than the crossover sold overseas.
The India-spec Bayon could overlap with the lower end of the Fronx price range.
Its size is expected to place it closer to the Venue and Creta.
A festive-season launch around Diwali is expected, though not confirmed.
