We recently reported about a leaked document that revealed some variant-wise features of the Venue. Based on online reports and information from our sources, we’ve drafted a variant-wise list of expected prices of the sub-4m SUV that you can check out here.

We expect the Venue’s prices to start from somewhere around Rs 7.2 lakh and go up to Rs 12 lakh. Keeping these prices in mind, it would directly rival the Mahindra XUV300 and Ford EcoSport. Other sub-4m SUVs like the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza and Tata Nexon are also its competitors in the segment, but these are priced more aggressively.
