Hyundai Bayon Launches in India; Nepal Timing and Price Remain Unconfirmed

Hyundai Motor India launched the Hyundai Bayon on October 26 with an introductory Indian ex-showroom price starting at INR 999,900. The company’s launch announcement confirms a 1.5-litre petrol engine rated at 115 PS, with six-speed manual or IVT automatic transmission options. Those are India-market details, not confirmed specifications or prices for Nepal.

Nepal Drives reports that a Nepali introduction is expected in the first quarter of 2027. That remains a projection: Hyundai has not announced a firm Nepal launch date, local variant list or rupee price. For Nepal buyers considering a new petrol SUV, the Indian launch gives an early indication of the Bayon’s positioning, but import costs and the eventual distributor specification could change the comparison with cars already on sale here. Buyers should wait for an official Nepal announcement before treating Indian pricing or equipment as locally available.
