2022 Hyundai Venue Design & Features
The leaked photos showcase that the new Hyundai Venue design is largely inspired by the 2022 Hyundai Creta SUV. The front now comprises the 'Sensuous Sportiness' design philosophy and embarks a new wide piano black grille. This design also looks familiar with the new upcoming Hyundai Tucson. Also, the LED DRLs are redesigned to provide it more appealing look. Along with the changes, the front bumper is also redone with a straight bar-like air dam design.
While the side profile uses a new set of 16-inch alloy wheels, the rear design is also reworked a lot. The taillights are LEDs and sharper looking. The bland rear design is now more funky with the use of a KIA Sonet-like light bar between the taillamps. Complying the front design, the rear bumper also comes with a straight bar-like piano blacked-out design. Hyundai will offer rear fog lights in the new Venue.
Feature-wise, we expect that it might offer the likes of the latest tech. These will include - Bose speakers, ventilated seats, a big infotainment system, front parking sensors, & even a 360-degree park assist function. We also anticipate that Hyundai will offer the new Venue with leather upholstery as well.
Also, there are rumors that Hyundai Venue will be introduced with an N-Line variant as well. Currently, the N-Line version is available with the Hyundai i20.

Mechanically no major changes are expected with the facelifted car. This means Hyundai will continue offering the Venue with 3 engine options. The base variant will get the 1.2-Lt, naturally aspirated petrol with 5-speed manual transmission. A 1.0-Lt, turbocharged petrol will also continue being offered with the 6-speed manual. 6-speed iMT semi-automatic or a 7-speed DCT automatic gearbox options.
The reliable & efficient 1.5-Lt diesel engine will also remain on offer with an option of 6-speed manual gearbox. It is expected that Hyundai will also offer a 6-speed torque converter for the diesel variant just like KIA Sonet.
