Hyundai is readying the facelifted Venue for its launch which is likely to happen on June 16. Now, the SUV’s base-spec variant has been spied testing ahead of its price announcement.

While the spied model was captured with heavy camouflage, its steel wheels was the only noticeable feature. Other exterior revisions on the facelifted SUV will include a new ‘Parametric Jewel’ (seen on the new-gen Tucson and facelifted Creta) grille and connected LED tail lights.

Hyundai isn’t likely to alter the cabin layout of the Venue save to give it new upholstery and maybe a new colour theme. The SUV is expected to gain a few features such as ventilated front seats, a fully digital instrument cluster, a 10.25-inch touchscreen, and a Bose sound system. Its safety kit could include four airbags as standard while retaining features such as vehicle stability management, hill-start assist, and a reversing camera.
