Hyundai has revealed its plans for the upcoming Auto Expo. The Hyundai stall is going to be buzzing with action as the company has planned to bring in a host of cars to the biennial event. Making its global debut is the Hyundai HND-7 Compact MPV Concept. This could go into production in a couple of years and would rival the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. Hyundai could use the engines from the i20 and Verna to power the HND-7. Expect Fluidic styling on this MPV, which would help the Korean automaker dislocate Maruti from the top spot. Bollywood actor Shahrukh Khan is expected to unveil the MPV.

Also to be showcased at the Expo is the Veloster Coupe. This is a 3-door utility vehicle and is sold in global markets. The all new Hyundai Elantra (also known as Avante) will be showcased too and is expected to go on sale by the end of 2012. The Elantra will rival the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla Altis and is expected to be priced around Rs. 14 lakhs. Hyundai will offer a wide range of variants on the Elantra, just like it does with the Fluidic Verna. Expect the Verna’s engines to power the Elantra. The complete Hyundai line-up from the Eon to the Santa Fe will be present at the Expo as well. The company will also showcase electric versions of its existing cars.
