The Hyundai BAYON launches on 26 October with a generative AI assistant, Level 2 ADAS and a CVT automatic. Pre-book at Lakshmi Hyundai Hyderabad.
Hyderabad, the wait is nearly over. Hyundai unveiled the India-spec BAYON on 12 October 2026, and it launches on 26 October 2026. Pre-bookings are open now at Lakshmi Hyundai Hyderabad.
The BAYON fills the gap between the VENUE and the CRETA. It suits families and young professionals who want more space and tech than a sub-compact SUV.
This is Hyundai’s first car in India with a generative AI voice assistant, powered by Perplexity and SoundHound AI. Ask it for directions, music or quick answers in natural language. Hyundai has announced regional language support; check with our team whether Telugu voice commands are included.
Twin 12.3-inch screens sit in one curved panel, with NVIDIA-powered navigation and wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
The 1.5-litre petrol engine (about 115 PS) pairs with a CVT automatic or a 6-speed manual. The CVT makes daily commutes through Gachibowli, Madhapur and Kukatpally far less tiring. On the Outer Ring Road, Level 2 ADAS adds an extra layer of support.
Planning a trip to Srisailam, Warangal or Bidar? With roughly 411 litres of boot space, ventilated front seats, rear AC vents and an 8-speaker Bose system, the BAYON keeps everyone comfortable.
The BAYON combines a tall SUV stance with a sleek, sharp nose. Slim inverted-L LED DRLs are joined by a piano-black strip, and LED headlamps flank a strong grille with horizontal inserts. A sculpted bonnet and a chunky front skid plate complete a confident look.
Along the side, you’ll notice crisp creases, flared wheel arches with sharp cladding and up to 17-inch dual-tone alloys. Blacked-out pillars create a floating roof. At the rear, inverted-L LED tail lamps connected by a thin black strip match the front. Whether parked at Inorbit Mall or cruising along Necklace Road, the BAYON makes an impression.
The BAYON’s interior uses a black-and-white dual-tone theme with white leatherette seats. Its dashboard, inspired by Hyundai’s latest global models, features vertical AC vents and a sculpted mid-section.
You’ll find soft-touch padding on the steering wheel, gear knob and armrests, and Hyundai’s new steering wheel design. The twin 12.3-inch screens are housed in a single curved panel, giving a clean, premium look. All five seats get adjustable headrests, and rear passengers enjoy their own AC vents, a welcome touch in Hyderabad’s summer heat.
Every BAYON gets 6 airbags and electronic stability control. Top variants add Level 2 ADAS and a 360-degree camera for tight parking spots in Banjara Hills or Ameerpet.
• 1.5-litre petrol, 6-speed manual or CVT

The BAYON fills a clear gap in Hyundai’s SUV line-up. It offers more space and a more mature look than the VENUE, while its expected starting price sits below the CRETA.
For Hyderabad’s tech professionals, young couples and growing families, it delivers the features people actually use every day: an automatic gearbox, strong connectivity, a powerful sound system and modern safety, without paying for more car than they need. With a five-seat cabin and a roughly 411-litre boot, it also works well for airport runs to Shamshabad, shopping trips and long drives out of the city on weekends.
