Hyundai Venue
- Updated styling makes the Venue look more butch and upmarket.
- Dual-tone interior is classy, good quality of materials in the cabin too.
- Powered driver’s seat, Alexa/Google Home connectivity, Digital driver’s display added to an already expansive feature list.
- 1.2 Petrol, 1.5 Diesel, 1.0 Turbo - plenty of engine options to choose from.

Kia Sonet
- Borrowing powertrains and features from a segment above has made it pretty expensive.
- Cabin insulation could have been better.
- Turbo-petrol engine option, in Sport mode, feels jerky to drive in traffic.
- Rear seats could have had better cushioning and better space
Hyundai Venue
