Hyundai has introduced a new S(O) + variant for the Venue at Rs 10 lakh. The new variant essentially adds an electric sunroof over the S(O) variant it is based on, making it the most affordable variant to be offered with this feature.
Priced at Rs 10 lakh, the new variant sits between the S(O) (Rs 9.89 lakh) and SX (Rs 11.05 lakh) variants. Over the former, it just gets an electric sunroof, which was previously offered from the SX variant onwards. Do note that the new S(O) + variant is only available with the 1.2-litre, four-cylinder NA petrol engine option with a 5-speed manual gearbox.
Despite the new variant, the Hyundai Venue isn’t the most affordable compact SUV in India to offer a sunroof. At Rs 8.99 lakh, the Mahindra XUV 3XO MX2 Pro retains the title.
Apart from a sunroof, the new Venue variant also gets LED projector headlamps with DRLs, an 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Android Auto and Apple Carplay, a digital instrument cluster and more. Safety features on offer include six Airbags, a highline TPMS, ESC, HAC, a rear camera, and so on.
The Hyundai Venue is currently priced from Rs 7.94 lakh to Rs 13.48 lakh, and faces competition from compact SUVs such as Kia Sonet, Mahindra XUV 3XO, Tata Nexon, Maruti Brezza, Fronx, Nissan Magnite, Renault Kiger and Toyota Taisor.
