1. Honda City Facelift 2026

The 2026 Honda City Facelift is expected to arrive in the second half of 2026, bringing in subtle but important updates. This facelift will include a refreshed front grille, redesigned bumpers, and updated LED lighting. Inside, the City will likely receive minor trim changes and the option of a 360-degree camera system for improved visibility. The sedan will retain its existing 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine with either a manual or CVT transmission, along with the hybrid e:HEV powertrain. Expect the continuation of the “Honda Sensing” ADAS suite, making the 2026 Honda City not only a style upgrade but also a safer, more tech-savvy option.

2. Hyundai Verna Facelift 2026

Hyundai Verna 2026 facelift will feature a fresh look with notable changes, especially to the front end. Inspired by the larger Hyundai Sonata, the sedan will get a new front bumper with bold, diagonal elements, and updated LED headlights. Inside, expect a more modern and curved dual-screen setup with larger 12.3-inch displays for the infotainment and instrument cluster. The 2026 Verna will continue to offer both a naturally aspirated 1.5-litre engine and a class-leading turbo-petrol engine, both mated to manual and automatic transmission options. The facelifted Verna will also bring in a more advanced Level 2 ADAS suite, making it one of the safest sedans in its class.

3. Skoda Slavia Facelift 2026

The Skoda Slavia 2026 facelift will arrive around mid-2026, offering a refreshed design and several feature upgrades. The exterior will showcase revised headlamps, updated LED DRLs, a new 3D-patterned grille, and tweaked tail-lamps. Inside, expect a revamped dashboard layout with a larger 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and possibly a 360-degree camera system. One of the biggest updates will be the inclusion of Level 2 ADAS, enhancing the safety features already available in the Slavia. The sedan will continue to offer the popular 1.0-litre and 1.5-litre TSI turbo-petrol engines, both paired with manual, automatic, or DSG transmission options.

5. Volkswagen Virtus Facelift 2026

The Volkswagen Virtus facelift is expected to launch in late 2026. The sedan will get a more modern look with new bumpers and updated LED lighting. Inside, it will feature a panoramic sunroof, a 360-degree camera, and enhanced safety features with Level 2 ADAS.
