New cars: The Skoda Slavia, Volkswagen Virtus, and hybrid Honda City are just a few of the sedans that were introduced this year. But with 2023 only a year away, a slew of brand-new cars, from more economical models like the Hyundai Verna and Aura to high-end luxury models like the BMW 7 Series, is expected to be introduced. All of the forthcoming models are listed here.

Hyundai Grand i10 Nios facelift
The 1.2-litre normally aspirated petrol engine, which generates 83 horsepower and 114 Nm of torque, and the 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine, which generates 100 horsepower and 172 Nm of torque, are expected to remain in the Grand i10 Nios after its anticipated update. It will also receive a 1.2-litre CNG powertrain with a 69hp and 95.2Nm engine.
The new Grand i10’s boomerang-shaped LED Daytime Running Lamps will now be mounted on the bumper’s edges rather than the grille, adhering to Hyundai’s Sensuous Sportiness design language. Its alloy wheels and the housing for the fog lamp in the front bumper might get new designs. It might also have new upholstery and a fresh design scheme.
Hyundai Aura Facelift
Hyundai is anticipated to redesign the Grand i10 Nios hatchback-based Aura compact car. Since the previous model just lost its diesel engine, anticipate that the new one will continue to offer petrol, turbo-petrol, and CNG engines. Hyundai’s “Sensuous Sportiness” design language may be incorporated into the facelift, while the Grand i10 Nios is likely to receive similar aesthetic improvements.
Hyundai Verna
The next Verna, code-named BN7, will adhere to Hyundai’s “Sensuous Sportiness” design philosophy and may have split headlamps. Due to the impending RDE requirements, the diesel engine will no longer be offered in the Verna.
Because competitors Slavia and Virtus also have 1.5-liter turbocharged petrol engines, it may also receive mild hybrid technology with automatic start/stop and regeneration functions. The Verna will also have Hyundai’s ADAS technology from the Tucson, the first vehicle in the midsize range. Additionally, it will be substantially bigger than it was before, which will aid with rear room.
BMW 7 Series
The most recent model of BMW’s premium sedan features some daring external style. Instead of keeping the double-barrel headlamps, BMW has opted for a split headlamp design that is more contemporary and features an expanded version of its signature kidney grilles.
The new 7 Series interior, rather than its avant-garde design, is what really shines out. Below the 14.9-inch infotainment touchscreen and the 12.3-inch instrument display on the dashboard is a full-width light band. A massive 31.3-inch, 8k “theatre” screen option that folds down from the roof and delivers media streaming services will also be available to passengers in the back seats. A 5.5-inch touchscreen that controls the infotainment system as well as the climate control, seating, and other features are also provided for both back passengers.
The 3-litre engines with 299 horsepower (730d), 380 horsepower (740i), and 543 horsepower 4-litre V8 petrol(M760i) will be sold in India. All of these come standard with a 48V mild hybrid system and all-wheel drive. The i7, a fully electric model, will also be introduced concurrently. Notably, the longer wheelbase is a standard feature in every variation.
Mercedes Benz A-Class facelift
Recent mid-life upgrades to the Mercedes-Benz A-Class include new LED lights, new daytime running lights, and a reworked front end (DRLs). But other than the tail-lamp features, not much has changed in the back. Additionally, the inside will mostly remain similar while adding new features like the most recent MBUX system. In addition, there are modifications made internally with additional plug-in hybrid variations available. The 2.0-litre diesel engines are likely to remain in the India-specific model, although a mild hybrid system might be added to the 1.3-litre petrol engine.
