The upcoming Hyundai Venue is gearing up for a bold transformation, with a complete overhaul inside and out. Spotted frequently under heavy camouflage during testing, this revamped compact SUV is nearing its final development phase. Industry buzz points to a potential launch during the festive season, capitalizing on the high-spirited buying mood.
Revamped Exterior with a Modern Edge
Hyundai has moved away from the Venueโs previous mesh grille, introducing sleek, horizontal slats that span the front, giving it a sharper, more assertive stance. While the compact SUV retains its familiar silhouette and dimensions, it boasts striking new C-shaped daytime running lights that neatly frame the revamped headlight units. Drawing inspiration from its larger siblings like the Creta and Alcazar, the front fascia now features vertically aligned headlights, lending the Venue a boxier, more commanding presence.
The updates extend beyond the front. The side profile gets a refresh with redesigned body panels and stylish new 16-inch alloy wheels, enhancing its dynamic appeal. At the rear, a reimagined bumper, tailgate, and tail lamp cluster, paired with a sleek new spoiler, complete the modernized look.
Powertrains: Tried and True
Under the hood, Hyundai is sticking with its proven engine lineup for the new Venue. Expect the same reliable options: a 1.2-liter petrol, a 1.5-liter diesel, and the spirited 1.0-liter turbo petrol, all delivering consistent power and torque. Transmission options are also expected to carry over, including a six-speed manual, a six-speed torque converter automatic, and a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic, ensuring a familiar yet versatile driving experience.
A Cabin Packed with Upgrades
Inside, the new Venue promises a premium leap forward. A larger touchscreen infotainment system takes center stage, complemented by a dual-pane sunroof and the introduction of a Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) suite for enhanced safety and convenience. The interior layout has been completely rethought, featuring a redesigned dashboard, a refreshed center console, and new upholstery options that elevate the cabinโs sophistication.
