Smart Summary for Car Selection
Why Choose Hyundai i20?Why choose
- The naturally aspirated petrol with the continuously variable automatic is certified at 20kpl, the joint-best figure in its own range and useful in city running
- Lower kerb weight and a lower centre of gravity make it more settled through corners than the taller Venue
- Costs less than the Venue at comparable equipment levels
- The Bose audio setup on upper versions is one of the better systems at this end of the market
Why not choose
- The three-star crash result is two rungs below the Venue's five-star Bharat NCAP score
- No driver assistance suite of any kind, where the Venue offers a Level 2 setup on upper versions
- No surround camera anywhere in the i20 range
- No diesel and no gas option, so the powertrain list is a single petrol engine
- Ground clearance and seating height are both lower, which is felt on broken roads and steep ramps
- The turbo engine has moved out of the standard i20 range entirely, leaving no performance option
Why Choose Hyundai Venue?Why choose
- A five-star Bharat NCAP result applicable across the range, with six airbags standard from the entry version
- Twin 12.3-inch curved displays, larger than anything the i20 offers
- A diesel automatic, which is unusual at this size and useful for high-distance drivers who want two pedals
- Level 2 ADAS on upper versions, which the i20 does not offer at any price
- A 1.0-litre turbo petrol with a dual-clutch automatic for buyers who want stronger performance
- A higher seating position and better forward visibility in traffic
Why not choose
- The driver assistance suite and the diesel automatic both sit at the upper end of the range, which makes them an expensive pair to reach
- The taller body leans more through quick direction changes than the i20 does
- Costs climb well above the i20's at equivalent equipment levels, and the gap widens towards the top of the range
Our Recommendation For Most BuyersHyundai i20
City drivers who value efficiency and a car that changes direction cleanly are the ones the i20 still suits. The naturally aspirated petrol with the continuously variable automatic is the pick for that use, returning a claimed 20kpl and behaving smoothly in traffic where dual-clutch gearboxes tend to hesitate. The constraint is that this is now the only powertrain story the standard i20 has, because the turbo engine has moved out of the range.
There is no diesel and no gas option either. The other gap is equipment, since the i20 does without a surround camera and any form of driver assistance, both of which the Venue offers. Buyers who want those specific features should accept that no amount spent inside the i20 range will get them.
Hyundai Venue
Equipment is where the Venue makes its case, and the list is unusually deep for the size. Twin large displays, a five-star crash result that applies across the range, six airbags from the entry car and a Level 2 driver assistance suite on upper versions all sit outside what the i20 can offer. The trap is where those features live.
Both the assistance suite and the diesel automatic sit near the top of the range, so a buyer who wants either one is committed to a far higher outlay than the entry Venue suggests. High-distance drivers who want two pedals should look specifically at the diesel automatic, which few vehicles this size offer. Anyone doing short city trips will get better value from the smaller petrol.
