Hyundai Venue
Design
As this is a generational change, the Venue has grown in dimensions, though the platform remains the same. The new Venue is taller, wider, and the wheelbase has increased by 20 mm, while the length remains unchanged at 3,995 mm due to the older platform. In terms of looks, the front has changed massively, appearing drastically different from the outgoing model. The addition of quad-beam LED headlamps and connected LED DRLs makes it look even bigger than its actual size, complemented by a giant silver skid plate.
From the side, it may remind you of the Exter, thanks to extended wheel arches, roof rails, and muscular lines on the doors. There's also a third glass window at the C-pillar, which lets in more sunlight, making the interior feel brighter and more lively. Moving to the rear, the new tail-light design stretches across the width, with the VENUE emblem placed inside the glass area. The bumper is enhanced by a silver skid plate and inverted L-shaped reflectors, which complement the car's overall design language and aesthetics.

Interior
The all-new Hyundai Venue offers a connected cabin with a modern H-architecture design.

A dual 12.3-inch curved panoramic display integrates infotainment and cluster for a tech-forward experience. Comfort features include 2-step reclining seats, rear AC vents, sunshades, and dual-tone leather seats with Venue branding. Its extended wheelbase (+20mm) provides generous headroom, shoulder room, and legroom, while wider doors and enhanced seat bolstering ensure convenience and support on long journeys.
Engine and Gearbox
No changes have been made to the powertrain. Hyundai continues to offer three engine options: a naturally aspirated petrol, a diesel, and a turbo petrol for performance enthusiasts. Gearbox options remain unchanged, with a 5-speed manual, 6-speed manual, and 7-speed DCT. Hyundai hasn't specified which gearbox will pair with which engine yet, but its expected to remain the same as before.

Verdict
The Hyundai Venue is the second best-selling car from the brand, but over the past few months, its sales have been dipping as the competition has become fiercer - and the Venue no longer has anything unique to offer. It's neither the most feature-loaded nor the most fun-to-drive SUV in its segment. The only way it can bounce back is with a refreshed design that enhances its road presence. This is the time for the Venue to prove its mettle.
