Hyundai will continue to offer the new Venue with the same set of engine options, including a 1.5-litre diesel, a 1-litre turbo-petrol, and a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol. However, Hyundai now offers a 6-speed torque converter automatic for the 1.5-litre diesel.

While we have already seen how the exterior and interior of the Venue will look, it’s now time to know about the SUV’s upgrades in cabin technology and safety. Hyundai has recently announced that the second-generation model will feature a curved dual 12.3-inch screen setup, combining infotainment and driver information into a single seamless panel, a notable upgrade from the outgoing model’s 8-inch infotainment display and semi-digital driver cluster.
For the first time in India, Hyundai has equipped the Venue with its Connected Car Navigation Cockpit (ccNC), powered by NVIDIA, which is said to offer advanced connectivity and redefine the in-car digital experience. Other premium features include a Bose 8-speaker sound system, ventilated front seats, Surround View Monitor (SVM), wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, voice-enabled sunroof, 70 Hyundai BlueLink connected car features, and a Blind Spot View Monitor (BVM).
In terms of safety, the SUV is now equipped with SmartSense Level-2 ADAS, including 16 driver-assistance features, including smart cruise control with stop & go, driver attention warning, and lane keeping assist. There will also be more than 65 cutting-edge safety technologies, including 33 standard across all variants. The Venue supports over-the-air updates for 20 controllers.
As a facelift, the Hyundai Venue gets several noteworthy cosmetic upgrades. While the body shape remains the same, the stance is now more upright, squared-off. The quad-LED headlights feature a refreshed lighting pattern, and there’s a full-width LED light bar along the bonnet line.

The widened rectangular grille is complemented by a chunkier bumper with silver accents. Moreover, the 16-inch wheels get a new design, with squared wheel arches enhancing the rugged look. At the rear, a connected LED light bar and block-pattern taillights are tied together by a black strip with the Venue branding. In terms of size, the Venue is now 48mm taller (1,665mm) and 30mm wider (1,800mm). It also benefits from a 20mm longer wheelbase (2,520mm).

The interior also gets a major overhaul. The dashboard looks uncluttered and flatter than before. The climate control is now fully digital with touch-style controls, while the traditional circular air vents are replaced with slender horizontal units.

With notable interior and exterior upgrades, the new Venue is likely to be priced between Rs 8 lakh and Rs 14 lakh (both, ex-showroom).
