The Hyundai Bayon variants run from the HX2 at ₹9.99 lakh to the HX10 at about ₹18 lakh, and the right one depends on whether you want a manual, an automatic, a panoramic sunroof or Level 2 ADAS. Hyundai launched the Bayon on 26 October 2026 with seven trims and introductory ex-showroom prices. This guide is the written companion to our full video. It sets out what each variant gets, which ones we picked and why, how the Bayon compares with the Maruti Suzuki Victoris, and what is still unannounced.

Watch the full video above for the complete variant-by-variant walkthrough. The article below adds prices and sources from Hyundai and the launch coverage.

Hyundai Bayon variants at a glance

Engine: one engine only, a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol making 115 PS and 144 Nm, with front-wheel drive.
Gearboxes: a six-speed manual on every trim, and an automatic that Hyundai calls iVT (other outlets call it a CVT) from HX5 upward.
Boot: 505 litres claimed. Six airbags, electronic stability control and hill-assist are standard.
Not announced: a crash-test rating, and the end date of the introductory prices.

Variant-by-variant prices and features

Prices below are the introductory ex-showroom figures reported at launch by CarDekho, Times Drive and GaadiKey, rounded to the nearest ₹1,000. A dual-tone roof adds about ₹15,000.

Variant	Manual	iVT automatic	Key features
HX2	₹9.99 lakh	not offered	Six airbags, ESC, rear sensors, 16-inch steel wheels, rear AC vents, LED projectors
HX3	₹10.90 lakh	not offered	10.25-inch screen, wireless Android Auto and CarPlay, reverse camera, push-button start
HX3 Plus	₹11.80 lakh	not offered	Electric sunroof, roof rails
HX5	₹12.45 lakh	₹13.85 lakh	Electric sunroof, automatic climate, cruise control, wireless charger, Bluelink with over-the-air updates
HX6	₹13.57 lakh	₹14.97 lakh	Panoramic sunroof, 17-inch diamond-cut alloys, ambient lighting, leather steering wheel
HX8	₹15.10 lakh	₹16.54 lakh	Surround-view monitor, ventilated front seats, 8-way powered driver seat, rear disc brakes, dashcam
HX10	₹16.65 lakh	₹18.00 lakh	Level 2 Pro ADAS, dual 12.3-inch displays, Bose audio, AI voice assistant, blind-spot view

Hyundai’s own variants page is the official feature-by-trim reference, and CarDekho’s launch story has the price list. Hyundai calls the camera system a “surround view monitor”, which our video calls a 360-degree camera. Level 2 Pro ADAS, with 23 functions, is named by Hyundai only for the HX10.

Our variant picks from the video

Budget pick: HX3 with the manual gearbox, the most sensible entry point.
Best automatic: HX5 with the iVT, the cheapest automatic at about ₹13.85 lakh.
Best all-rounder: HX6, for the panoramic sunroof and a richer cabin.
Comfort-focused: HX8, for the surround-view monitor and ventilated seats.
Technology-focused: HX10, for Level 2 ADAS and the dual screens.

Autocar India’s variant guide reaches a similar view. It picks the HX8 for most buyers, calls the HX6 a good budget balance, and says the HX10’s premium over the HX8 is hard to justify. It also notes that only the automatic gets the Dash Boost function, drive modes and paddle shifters.

Mileage, CNG and safety

The claimed ARAI mileage of the automatic is about 18.6 km/l as reported by several outlets. The manual’s figure is unconfirmed, because reports quote 17.2 and 17.5 km/l. A factory CNG version is confirmed for January 2027 according to Autocar India, but its power, price and mileage are not announced. No Bharat NCAP or Global NCAP result has been published. Hyundai says the platform is engineered for five-star standards, but that is Hyundai’s own assessment, not a crash-test score.

Hyundai Bayon versus Maruti Victoris

The Victoris is the Bayon’s closest competitor, and it comes with more powertrain choice. According to Autocar India’s launch report, it offers a 1.5-litre mild-hybrid petrol, a 1.5-litre strong hybrid with 116 hp and a 1.5-litre petrol-CNG with 89 hp. Its claimed mileage is about 28.6 km/l for the strong hybrid and 27.02 km/kg for the CNG, and it has a five-star Bharat NCAP rating. All-wheel drive is available only on the top mild-hybrid automatic. Recent price listings put the Victoris at about ₹10.5 lakh to ₹19.3 lakh for the petrol, ₹16.4 lakh to ₹20 lakh for the strong hybrid and ₹11.5 lakh to ₹14.7 lakh for the CNG.

Item	Hyundai Bayon	Maruti Victoris
Engines	1.5 petrol only for now	Petrol, CNG and strong hybrid
Claimed mileage	About 18.6 km/l (automatic)	About 28.6 km/l hybrid, 27.02 km/kg CNG
Boot	505 litres claimed	Not compared in the sources we used
Crash rating	Not published	Five stars at Bharat NCAP

The honest summary is that the Bayon wins on cabin feel, the large boot and a feature list that climbs steadily, while the Victoris wins on fuel economy options, a proven safety rating and AWD on one variant. If you do high mileage, the Victoris hybrid or CNG makes more financial sense. See our earlier guide to the Bayon against the Venue and Creta for the wider picture.

A note on our video

The video’s description does not list prices, so the table above is sourced from the launch coverage. The introductory prices have no announced end date, so confirm the current price and variant availability with a Hyundai dealer before booking. We could not read the video’s full script here, so the sources linked are the basis for every figure on this page.

Buy now or wait?

If you have settled on the Bayon, choose by gearbox first and budget second: the HX3 for a manual, the HX5 for an automatic, and the HX6 if you want to spend a little more for the panoramic sunroof and cabin. The HX10 makes sense only if Level 2 ADAS is a priority for you. If mileage matters most, waiting for the CNG in January 2027 is reasonable, but nothing about its price or performance is announced yet. We have not driven the Bayon for this article, which uses Hyundai’s information and published reports. More coverage is in the car news section and the full videos page.
