A Fresh New Look
The 2025 Venue gets a sharper, more confident design that gives it a premium SUV feel. The front fascia now sports a bold parametric grille with chrome highlights, sleeker LED projector headlamps, and newly designed DRLs. The rear profile looks sportier too, featuring connected LED tail lamps and a reworked bumper for a more muscular stance.
Hyundai has also introduced new dual-tone color options and stylish alloy wheels, ensuring that the Venue continues to stand out on Indian roads.
Updated Interior and Technology
Step inside the 2025 Venue, and it’s clear Hyundai wants to give a “big car” experience in a compact form. The cabin feels more refined with premium upholstery, a larger 12.3-inch digital display, and ambient lighting.
The infotainment system now supports over-the-air (OTA) software updates, Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay, making the Venue one of the most connected SUVs in its class. You’ll also find wireless charging, ventilated seats, a Bose sound system, and voice-enabled controls that make daily driving a pleasure.
