Hyundai Motor India introduced the 2023 Venue in the domestic market at a starting price of ₹7.68 lakh (ex-showroom). Recently, the automaker has disclosed an upward adjustment in the pricing of its sub-four-metre SUV. Following this alteration, the base E variant of the Hyundai Venue has experienced an increase in price by up to ₹5,300, while the rates for the other variants remain unaffected.

The compact SUV, designed to seat five individuals, is accessible in six distinct trims, which are designated as E, S, S+, S(O), SX, and SX(O). Potential buyers can opt for the Venue in either one of six single-tone colors or a dual-tone combination. The single-tone palette comprises Fiery Red, Phantom Black, Denim Blue, Typhoon Silver, Titan Grey, and Polar White.

Alternatively, the dual-tone option exclusively offers Fiery Red with a black roof. Beneath the hood, the Hyundai Venue is available with a selection of three different engine powertrain alternatives. The initial option is a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine, followed by a 1.0-litre turbocharged petrol mill, and finally a 1.5-litre diesel engine.

Handling the transmission responsibilities are a five-speed manual, a six-speed manual, a seven-speed DCT (Dual-Clutch Transmission), and an iMT (intelligent Manual Transmission) unit. In a recent development, Hyundai launched the Knight Edition of the Venue in India, with pricing commencing at ₹9,99,990 (ex-showroom). This distinct iteration of the SUV is based on the S, S(O), and SX(O) variants and offers two engine options.
