What’s New In the Venue S(O) Plus Variant?

The Hyundai Venue S(O) Plus is now the most affordable variant with a sunroof in the Hyundai SUV’s lineup. It gets everything that the S(O) variant has on offer but comes with this new feature and costs only Rs 12,000 more than the former. 

It gets auto-LED headlights, LED DRLs at the front and an LED tail light with a connecting bar design. It continues to get the 15-inch steel wheels and body-coloured outside rearview mirrors (ORVMs), that are offered with the S(O) variant.

The Venue S(O) Plus variant comes only with a 1.2-litre naturally-aspirated engine which is mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. The engine produces 83 PS and 114 Nm. Additionally, some other variants get a choice of a 1-litre turbo-petrol unit (120 PS/172 Nm) and a 1.5-litre diesel engine (116 PS/250 Nm). While the turbo-petrol unit can be had with a 6-speed manual and a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission (DCT) option, the diesel is available with a 6-speed MT only.
