Hyundai’s All-New Venue has set a record with over 32,000 bookings in just one month.

Hyundai Motor India has come up with its new generation Venue which has got a fantastic market debut by getting more than 32,000 bookings just after one month of its launch. The compact SUV is priced starting at ₹ 7.90 Lakh (ex-showroom) and is emerging very fast as a major volume driver for the company, thus indicating its high demand among the Indian customers.

Funky Design and Luxurious Appearance

Hyundai's Global K1 enhanced platform has been used for the new Venue, which has a larger height, width, and longer 2,520mm wheelbase that has improved cabin space, road presence, and overall comfort. It is also the first model to be produced in Hyundai's newly opened Pune factory, and it is among 26 new products that Hyundai has planned for India by 2030.

The SUV's design has been completely changed and refreshed — it is now paired with a dark chrome front grille, quad-beam LED headlights, two-horn LED daytime running lights, and LED taillights in a horizon style. The luxury limitations consist of the taller height of the vehicle, the new look of the C-pillar, the bridge-like roof rails, and finally the in-glass VENUE logo.

The clients will be able to select from six solid colors and two two-tone color combinations, including such new shades as Hazel Blue, Mystic Sapphire, and Dragon Red, among others. The dual-tone variants combine Hazel Blue or Atlas White with an Abyss Black roof, which adds to the SUV's chic character.

The sportier Venue N Line's very aggressive look is achieved through 32 exclusive enhancements including, among others, N Line bumpers with red accents, diamond-cut alloy wheels sized R17, twin exhaust pipe outlets, red brake calipers, and body-color cladding that gives it a very muscular look. Cabin that is tech loaded and full of features

The Venue's interior is opulent, thanks to the installation of dual 12.3-inch curved panoramic displays that are powered by NVIDIA and revolutionize the whole space by connecting the digital instrument cluster to the infotainment system without any limitations. The lavish features include a Terrazzo-textured crash pad, dual-tone leatherette-covered seats, a driver seat with power 4-way adjustability, reclining rear seats with 2-step adjustment, ambient lighting, and a center console styled like a coffee table.

Some of the little extras are a rear window that can be retracted, an 8-speaker Bose audio system, and air conditioning vents in the rear. The N Line interior offers an athletic look with black upholstery and red accents, N-branded seats and steering, metal pedals, Sunrise Red ambient light, and even a Smart Aroma Diffuser. Hyundai gives the next-gen Venue a range of three powertrains, each with its peculiarities in terms of the preferences of the driver:

1.2-litre Kappa MPi petrol: 83bhp, 114.7Nm, 5-speed manual

1.0-litre Kappa Turbo GDi petrol: 120bhp, 172Nm, 6-speed manual or 7-speed DCT (with ISG)

1.5-litre U2 CRDi diesel: 116bhp, 250Nm, 6-speed manual or new 6-speed automatic

The Venue N Line is also equipped with a 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine that comes with a 6-speed manual or 7-speed DCT as well as drive and traction control modes and paddle shifters making the whole driving experience more engaging and fun.

Market Impact

The modern design, improved emphatic solutions, tech-laden cabin, and diverse options have made the second-gen Hyundai Venue an instant attraction to the buyers in the highly competitive segment. The feedback of 32,000 bookings in merely a month marks the strong market momentum of the SUV and consolidates Hyundai's position in the compact SUV market.
