Hyundai Bayon to Get Underbody CNG Tank - Engine Options Out

New Bayon to get underbody CNG tank It will offer a spare wheel To get a 1.5L NA petrol engine

We informed you earlier that Hyundai will launch the next-gen Bayon midsize SUV in India before the end of this financial year. The SUV is currently undergoing testing, and is expected to be revealed sometime later this year. A new media report claims that the new Hyundai Bayon SUV will be offered with a naturally-aspirated petrol and a CNG powertrain. The big news is that the SUV is reported to get the underbody-mounted CNG tank.

Engine Options

The report claims that the next Hyundai Bayon is likely to be powered by the same 1.5-litre,4-cylinder, naturally-aspirated petrol engine that powers the Creta. This engine is capable of producing 114bhp and 144Nm of torque, and is paired to either a 6-speed manual or a CVT automatic gearbox.

It will be the first Hyundai model over 4 metres to feature a CNG powertrain. It is likely to get the same 1.5L petrol engine with an underbody-mounted CNG tank. The report further claims that the SUV will retain the spare wheel, which is missing in the Maruti Suzuki Victoris. It is also available with an underbody CNG kit, but it has no spare wheel.

Next Hyundai Bayon - Key Details

Internally codenamed BC4i, the Hyundai Bayon is expected to measure around 4.2 meters in length. This slots it directly into the price and size gap between the sub-4 meter Venue and the midsize Creta. Instead of the rounded crossover design, the new Hyundai Bayon will carry a taller, boxier stance inspired by the latest Hyundai’s design theme. It is expected to get a large touchscreen infotainment unit, a fully digital driver’s display, connected car technology, and a LEVEL 2 Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) suite featuring autonomous emergency braking and adaptive cruise control.
