Speaking about the openings of bookings for the new 2022 Hyundai Venue, Tarun Garg, Director (Sales, Marketing & Service), Hyundai Motor India Ltd., said, "Hyundai Venue has had a stellar success in India ever since its launch in 2019.

Driven by the aspirations of Gen MZ customers, the new Hyundai Venue is set to enthrall customers with many first in segment technologies that offer an unparalleled experience, for instance, customers can now control many car functions through Home to car (H2C) with Alexa & Google Voice Assistant; 60+ Bluelink Connected features; and 2 Step Rear Reclining Seat. We are confident that the new Hyundai Venue will build on the strong brand legacy and amplify the Hyundai SUV Life for unmatched customer delight."

There are no changes expected under the bonnet of the facelifted Hyundai Venue with the car expected to feature the same three engine options. The 1.2-litre N.A. petrol engine produces 82bhp and 114Nm of peak torque. The more powerful turbocharged three-cylinder 1.0-litre engine produces 118bhp and 172Nm of peak torque.

The sole diesel engine is a 1.5-litre unit pushing out 99bhp and 240Nm of peak torque. Depending on the engine and variant chosen, Venue owners will be able to choose between 3 manual and three automatic gearbox options.

Thoughts On The Facelifted Hyundai Venue

The facelifted Hyundai Venue looks set to bring in a host of new features that should keep customers busy for quite a while ensuring those at the back are as comfortable as possible. With its new options list, the Venue should once again start attracting eyeballs which should ensure more units of the compact SUV start rolling out of Hyundai's showrooms in the near future.
