The Hyundai Bayon HX5 mid variant costs Rs 12.44 lakh with a manual gearbox and Rs 13.84 lakh with the IVT automatic. A walkaround of the trim lists its features, safety kit and the one engine on offer, plus what the next trim up adds.
The Hyundai Bayon HX5 mid variant is priced at Rs 12.44 lakh with a manual gearbox and Rs 13.84 lakh with an IVT automatic in India, according to a walkaround of the trim published on November 14, 2026. One lakh equals 100,000 rupees.
Hyundai recently launched the all-new Bayon in India at Rs 9.99 lakh to Rs 17.99 lakh. The range has seven trim levels: HX2, HX3, HX3+, HX5, HX6, HX8 and HX10.
Why the HX5 matters
The HX5 is where the IVT automatic option starts. The automatic costs Rs 1.40 lakh more than the manual. The walkaround describes the trim as the most value-for-money choice in the lineup.
It also sits between the cheaper trims and the better-equipped ones, which makes it the likely pick for budget-minded buyers who want an automatic.
Features and safety
The exterior has single projector headlights, LED daytime running lamps, LED tail lamps and rear LED turn indicators. R17 styled steel wheels carry 215/55 tyres. Boot space is 505 litres.
Inside, the cabin uses a black and olive grey theme. Dual curved panoramic displays, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a wireless charger and a 6-speaker audio system are fitted. So are a single-pane electric sunroof, cruise control, OTA (over-the-air software) updates and Hyundai Bluelink connected car technology.
Safety includes six airbags, electronic stability control, hill start assist, a rear parking camera and sensors, and tyre pressure monitoring. Front and side parking sensors are missing. Hyundai fits more than 35 safety features as standard across all variants.
One engine for now
Every Bayon currently uses a single 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine. It makes 115 PS and 143.8 Nm of torque. Buyers choose between a 6-speed manual and the IVT automatic.
Based on market feedback, more powertrain options could come in the future, according to the walkaround.
What the next trims add
The HX6 costs Rs 13.56 lakh as a manual and Rs 14.96 lakh as an IVT automatic. It adds dual projector headlamps, diamond cut alloy wheels, a panoramic sunroof, a front sliding console armrest and a leather steering wheel and gear shift knob.
The top HX10 brings Level 2 Pro ADAS (advanced driver-assistance systems), a Bose premium audio system, dual 12.3-inch ccNC infotainment screens, generative AI and front ventilated seats.
