New Hyundai Venue Facelift Is Here

The all-new Hyundai Venue for 2025 arrives with a clear mission to stay on top of India’s most competitive compact SUV segment. This time, Hyundai has raised the bar even higher with aggressive styling cues, a completely updated interior, new age connected tech, and a wide range of powertrains to choose from. 

New Hyundai Venue Design explained

 Measuring 3,995 mm in length, 1,800 mm in width, and 1,665 mm in height with a 2,520 mm wheelbase, the SUV now looks more muscular and planted on the road. It’s 48 mm taller and 30 mm wider than the outgoing model, giving it a stronger stance and a commanding presence from every angle.

The front end is where the transformation hits hardest. Hyundai has replaced the previous cascading grille with a dark chrome radiator grille that flows neatly between the twin-horn LED DRLs and quad-beam LED headlamps.

Together, they create a face that’s confident and instantly recognizable, especially with the new “parametric jewel” pattern. The lower bumper is chunkier and finished with a brushed silver skid plate that hints at SUV ruggedness.

The rear has seen an equally striking update, led by Horizon LED tail lamps that span across the tailgate for a connected light-bar effect a design trend that’s quickly becoming a Hyundai signature.

 he addition of a Signature C-pillar garnish, VENUE branding embedded within the rear glass, and a reworked bumper with contrast inserts give it a more premium feel.

Exterior Highlights:

• Bold dark chrome grille with LED DRL and headlamp integration

• Horizon LED connected tail lamps

• Bridge-type roof rails and muscular side cladding

• New 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels

• VENUE glass-embedded tailgate logo

• Revised aerodynamics for improved fuel efficiency

• Wider door openings and improved ground clearance

Color options are as exciting as the design itself. Hyundai offers 8 paint choices for new Venue, including Mystic Sapphire, Hazel Blue, Dragon Red, Titan Grey, Atlas White, and Abyss Black. For those who like a bit of flair, dual-tone combinations such as Atlas White with Abyss Black roof and Hazel Blue with black roof make the Venue even more distinctive. 

What New Interior Features Does Venue Has?

The new “H-architecture” design theme gives the cabin a structured, layered look, and the dual-tone dark navy and dove grey finish feels sophisticated without being overdone. The terrazzo-textured crash pad garnish and soft-touch panels add a tactile richness that you don’t often find in compact SUVs.

At the center of attention is the new curved panoramic twin-screen setup, featuring two 12.3-inch displays  one for the fully digital driver’s cluster and the other for the infotainment system. The display quality is crisp, animations are fluid, and the interface supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. T

he “Hey Hyundai” voice assistant responds quickly to natural commands, letting you adjust temperature, change music, or get navigation directions hands-free.

The center console has a clean, coffee-table inspired layout with ambient Moon White lighting that subtly glows during night drives. The D-cut leather-wrapped steering wheel feels sporty to hold, with mounted controls for audio, cruise, and connected functions.

 The 8-speaker audio system delivers impressive clarity, and the cabin acoustics are refined to reduce outside noise effectively.

Comfort is another area where Hyundai has gone the extra mile. The rear seats recline in two steps, a rare feature in this class, making long journeys genuinely more relaxed. 

The dual-tone leather upholstery carries “VENUE” embossing, and even the stitching feels deliberate and premium. Rear AC vents, manual sunshades, and ample legroom thanks to the reprofiled seatbacks add to passenger convenience.

The driver’s seat gets 4-way electric adjustment, and storage has been improved across the cabin with thoughtful touches like a large glove box, rear USB ports, and cupholders in all doors.

Interior Highlights:

• Twin 12.3-inch curved panoramic displays

• Dual-tone navy and dove grey interior theme

• Rear seats with two-step recline and AC vents

• D-cut leather steering wheel with mounted controls

• Ambient Moon White lighting and premium terrazzo-textured dash

• Wireless smartphone connectivity and voice control

• Multiple USB and charging points for all passengers

What Are The Engine Options available with New Venue?

Hyundai continues its “something for everyone” approach with the new Venue’s powertrain lineup. Buyers can pick from three engines:

• 1.2L Kappa MPI petrol (83 PS, 114 Nm)

• 1.0L Turbo GDI petrol (120 PS, 172 Nm) available with a 6-speed iMT or 7-speed DCT automatic

Mileage figures are equally strong, ranging from 18 kmpl for the 1.2L petrol to over 23 kmpl for the diesel version. The power delivery feels smooth, and Hyundai has tuned the suspension for better stability and comfort on rough Indian roads.
