In response to the growing competition, the second largest car producer in the country has brought in a whole host of changes inside and out and the features list has been upgraded to lure in more customers. The 2022 Hyundai Venue now sticks by the latest Sensuous Sportiness design philosophy followed by the brand globally.

The sub-four-metre SUV is retailed in E, S, S+/S(O), SX and SX(O) trims and is priced at Rs. 7.53 lakh for the base Kappa 1.2 petrol MT E, Rs. 9.99 lakh for U2 CRDi diesel MT S+ and Rs. 9.99 lakh for the Kappa 1.0 turbo GDI S(O) petrol (ex-showroom, pan India). Hyundai has also said that the tentative waiting period of the updated Venue stands between 12 and 16 weeks depending on the variants and it can be purchased by customers with up to 100 per cent on-road funding too. It has a 3-year/unlimited km warranty as standard and is extendable up to 7 years and a 3-year BlueLink subscription.
