The all-new Hyundai Venue has recently gone on sale in India. The next-gen lineup comes in eight trim levels – HX2, HX4, HX5, HX6, HX7, HX8 and HX10 – with prices starting from Rs 7.90 lakh (ex-showroom). Prices of the Venue N Line variants, N6 MT, N6 DCT and N10 DCT, start at Rs 10.55 lakh. Interestingly, the new 2025 Hyundai Venue shares several design elements and features with the Creta, while retaining the same set of engines – the 1.2L NA petrol, 1.0L turbo petrol and 1.5L diesel.
