- Aggressive Styling: Features unique body kits, red accents, N Line badging, and dual-tip mufflers.
- Sporty Interior: Boasts leather seats with red stitching, a sporty steering wheel, and metal pedals.
- Performance DNA: Inherits the turbo-petrol engine tuned for a more engaging driving experience.
Powertrain & Feature Highlights
Under the hood, the 2025 Venue continues with multiple engine choices to match different driving preferences:
- 1.2-litre Petrol Engine: A naturally aspirated unit perfect for city commuting.
- 1.0-litre Turbo-petrol Engine: Offers a blend of performance and efficiency, available with both manual and iMT (intelligent Manual Transmission) options.
- 1.5-litre Diesel Engine: For buyers seeking high fuel economy and strong low-end torque.
Feature-wise, the Venue remains well-equipped with a sunroof, a large touchscreen infotainment system, wireless connectivity, and a comprehensive suite of safety features including multiple airbags, ESC (Electronic Stability Control), and rear parking sensors with a camera.
Positioning in the Market
With this update, the Hyundai Venue solidifies its position as a formidable rival against other popular compact SUVs in India like the Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet, and Maruti Suzuki Brezza. The Venue N Line, meanwhile, occupies a unique niche for buyers seeking sporty flair without stepping into the premium segment.
The launch of the 2025 Hyundai Venue and Venue N Line demonstrates the brand's commitment to refreshing its portfolio and catering to the evolving demands of Indian car buyers, offering style, features, and choice at various price points.
