Hyundai introduced its new 2020 Venue at the 2019 New York International Auto Show.
Venue is the latest SUV to join Hyundai’s product line-up and is Hyundai’s most affordable SUV.
Hyundai says Venue is a great fit in accommodating busy lifestyles and has playful and practical features for safety, versatility and connectivity.
Australia will get a taste of Venue in the second half of this year.
“The all-new Venue might be small in size, but it’s big on practicality and personality,” says Hyundai Motor Australia product, corporate and digital planning vice president Mike O’Brien.
“Its bold and unique character sets it apart from other SUVs on the market, offering a unique, entry-level vehicle for those consumers seeking savvy design with an abundance of standard safety, technology and connectivity features.”
Hyundai Motor Group design executive vice president SangYup Lee compares the Venue to a piece on a chessboard.
“We are missing a smaller piece,” says Lee. “That’s where the Venue comes in. It may be small, but its unique and bold design sets it apart from the rest of the pack.”
Venue gets its name from a ‘place’ people want to go and embodies the characteristics of ‘the place to be.’
Advanced safety technologies have been installed in the Venue, including forward collision-avoidance assist, land keeping assist, blind-spot collision warning, driver attention warning and rear collision cross-traffic warning.
Venue comes in grey or black cloth interiors. A total of eight exterior colours are available – ceramic white, black noir, stellar silver, galactic grey, scarlet, intense blue, green apple and denim.
Hyundai released design sketches of the Venue on April 9.
