All-New Hyundai Venue: What We Know Till Now About the Upcoming Compact SUV

Hyundai is gearing up for one of its most anticipated launches of the year — the next-generation Hyundai Venue, which is all set to make its India debut on November 4, 2025. The compact SUV that redefined its segment in 2019 is returning with a completely new identity — sharper design, tech-loaded interiors, and premium features that aim to push it back to the top of the charts.

A Bold New Face Inspired by Hyundai’s Global SUVs

The teaser released by Hyundai offers a glimpse of the Venue’s completely redesigned fascia, drawing heavy inspiration from Hyundai’s latest global SUV design language.

The front now features vertically stacked LED headlamps, a full-width LED daytime running light that stretches across the bonnet, and a larger rectangular grille with a bold inverted L-shaped pattern. The sculpted bumper, silver skid plate, and quad-beam projector units lend the SUV a more rugged and premium presence.

From the side, the Venue retains its compact proportions but appears more athletic with sharper creases, a reworked quarter panel, and a fresh set of 16-inch alloy wheels. Functional roof rails, contrast roof options, and a sportier stance give it a more mature SUV profile.

The rear sees the most striking transformation — a connected LED tail-light bar stretching across the width, a redesigned tailgate, and a dual-tone bumper, adding width and sophistication to its stance.

Interior: Elevated Design and Technology

Inside, the 2025 Venue has undergone a complete transformation. The cabin now mirrors Hyundai’s higher-end models with a dual 12.3-inch curved display setup, integrating both the infotainment system and digital driver’s display into one seamless unit.

The dashboard adopts a clean, horizontal layout with slim air vents, metallic accents, and soft-touch materials, exuding a premium ambience. A new steering wheel, revamped center console, and premium upholstery further elevate the feel.

Expected premium features include:

• 360-degree surround view camera
• Level 2 ADAS suite (adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, autonomous emergency braking)
• Ventilated front seats
• Dual-zone automatic climate control
• Ambient lighting
• Wireless phone charging
• Panoramic sunroof (a first for the Venue)
• Rain-sensing wipers and front parking sensors

Proven Power-trains with Updated Transmission Options

While the design and interiors take a big leap forward, the all-new Venue will continue with Hyundai’s proven engine lineup, offering a balance of performance and efficiency:

• 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol (5-speed manual)
• 1.0-litre turbo-petrol (7-speed DCT)
• 1.5-litre diesel (6-speed manual)

This approach ensures reliability while catering to diverse buyer preferences.

Positioning and Competition

Once launched, the all-new Hyundai Venue will continue to compete in the sub-4-metre compact SUV segment, against some of India’s bestsellers — the Tata Nexon, Maruti Suzuki Brezza, Mahindra XUV 3XO, Nissan Magnite, Renault Kiger, and the newly introduced Citroen Basalt X.

However, with its futuristic design, upmarket interior, and advanced driver-assist technologies, the new Venue is clearly aiming to redefine the benchmark once again — just as its first-generation model did six years ago.

Launch Timeline and Expectations

The all-new Hyundai Venue will be officially unveiled and launched on November 4, 2025, with bookings expected to open shortly before that. Prices are expected to start around ₹8 lakh (ex-showroom) and go up to ₹13 lakh for the top-spec variants.

Hyundai’s strategy appears clear — to make the Venue not just a compact SUV, but a premium, feature-rich urban crossover designed for the next generation of Indian car buyers.

Conclusion

With the upcoming Venue, Hyundai is setting the stage for a new era in compact SUVs — one that blends style, technology, safety, and comfort like never before. If the teaser and early leaks are anything to go by, the next-generation Venue is poised to be one of the most talked-about launches of 2025.
