- Spotted undisguised in South Korea
- India launch on 6 November
The new Hyundai Venue is all set to debut in India next month, on 6 November. While the compact SUV has been spotted testing multiple times on Indian roads, new images from South Korea now show the model completely undisguised, giving us the clearest look yet at what’s coming.
New Hyundai Venue Design Revealed
The 2025 Venue adopts Hyundai’s latest global SUV design language, inspired by models like the new Creta and Palisade. Up front, the biggest change is the redesigned grille which now extends horizontally into the split LED DRLs for a more cohesive look. The headlamps are positioned lower on the bumper in a rectangular housing that gives the SUV a broader stance.
The front bumper too has been reworked, sporting a chunkier skid plate and sharper creases. At the rear, the Venue now wears connected LED tail-lamps and a new bumper with faux skid elements. Completing the refreshed look are new multi-spoke alloy wheels which appear to be 16 or 17 inches.
Interior and Features in 2025 Venue
Although the cabin hasn’t been officially shown, leaked details hint at a revised dashboard layout with new dual-screen setup with a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system paired with a digital instrument cluster, much like the latest Creta. We also expect updated aircon controls, a redesigned centre console, and new upholstery patterns.
Among the new equipment, the 2025 Venue will also feature Level 1 ADAS, ventilated front seats, ambient lighting, and a powered driver’s seat in higher trims.
Powertrain Options
Mechanically, the Venue is expected to continue with the same 1.2-litre petrol, 1.0-litre turbo-petrol, and 1.5-litre diesel engines, paired with both manual and automatic gearbox options. While performance figures are unlikely to change, Hyundai may re-tune the engines for improved fuel efficiency and refinement.
Launch Timeline
The new Hyundai Venue will make its India debut on 6 November. The bookings are expected to open in the coming days. With these design and tech updates, the Venue will continue to take on rivals such as the Tata Nexon, Maruti Brezza, Skoda Kylaq, Nissan Magnite, Mahindra XUV 3XO, Renault Kiger, and Kia Sonet in the compact SUV space.
