While we have not seen the new dashboard in its entirety, we get a close look at the new touch-based climate control panel that also doubles up as the infotainment controls with physical dials on either side. This is a premium central console design also found in the Kia EV6. In addition, the Verna will expand its ventilated seat function to become the first in its segment to offer heated seats.
