It commands a premium of more than Rs 1 lakh over the base-spec E but gets a lot of useful amenities
The 2022 Hyundai Venue’s second-from-base S trim commands a premium of more than a lakh over the base-spec E. Hyundai has equipped it with a lot of features over the E to justify the price jump, but let’s see if it’s the one you should consider:
| Variant |
1.2-litre Petrol |
1.5-litre Diesel |
| S MT |
Rs 8.70 lakh |
– |
| S(O) MT |
Rs 9.5 lakh |
– |
| S+ MT |
– |
Rs 10 lakh |
| Difference |
Rs 80,000 |
– |
| Variant |
1.2-litre Petrol |
1-litre Turbo-petrol |
| S MT |
Rs 8.70 lakh |
– |
| S(O) iMT/S(O) DCT |
– |
Rs 10 lakh/Rs 10.97 lakh |
Why Consider The Venue S?
For the premium over the base-spec variant, the Venue S offers the additional features that make it a more acceptable model. Outside, it now has a shark fin antenna, roof rails, body-coloured ORVMs, and auto headlights. Its cabin gets an 8-inch touchscreen, rear AC vents, a digitised instrument cluster, and a front centre armrest with storage. Its safety kit gets a big upgrade too in the form of electronic stability control (ESC), brake assist (BA), hill-assist control (HAC), vehicle stability management (VSM), a tyre pressure monitor, and rear defogger.
Here’s a look at its features:

Why Skip The Venue S?
While the S trim does pack the essential items missing from the base trim, there are still some key omissions in the form of a rearview camera, rear washer, wiper, and a height-adjustable driver’s seat. So, if you want those extra conveniences, go for the S(O)/S+. Also, if you’d like the Venue with a diesel or turbo-petrol engine, you have to consider the next variant only.
| Variant |
Verdict |
| Skip for a lack of essential comforts |
|
| S |
Consider it on a strict budget as it just about covers the basics |
| Consider for turbo-petrol or diesel engine options, but the premium for the petrol feels steep |
|
| Consider with petrol engine for the premium features, skip for diesel |
|
| Go for it only if you want a top-spec turbo-petrol or diesel variant, loaded with feel-good features and added safety |
