With over 17,000 bookings and 80,000 interested people on the first day, the smart SUV received a clear and positive response from the Indian customers. After a month, the Venue continues to remain one of India’s most favourite compact SUV, as it now records over 1,000 retail deliveries in a single day. The SUV has received over 33,000 bookings in less than a month and around 2 lakh customers have also expressed their interest to purchase this vehicle.
Talking about the car, the design of the Venue exhibits a confident and tough SUV, which also displays Hyundai’s signature design language. The vehicle’s side profile showcases a solid and full volume wheel arch along with a strong character line. The front bold mesh pattern grille includes the new Hyundai signature face, while the unique character line flows over the body and blends into the tail lamps. The Hyundai Venue is 3,995 mm in length, 1,770 mm in width and 1,590 mm high, and also gets a boot space capacity of more than 350 litres.
