So let’s delve into what makes the new Venue so special and attractive.
A brand new vehicle for 2020, the Venue offers bold, modern styling that showcases a strong yet sophisticated profile that immediately radiates a strong road presence.
Incorporating a modern and bold design to reflect your sense of strong, yet understated style. It’s a feature-rich vehicle at an affordable price.
Stunning looks coupled with modern aerodynamics resulting in a great looking compact Crossover, while maintaining very fuel-efficient performance.
The sleek and compact exterior design highlights modern lines that flow into an overall confident design. A vibrant array of eight colours and available “on-trend” two-tone colour accents (available on the Trend & Urban Edition packages) will surely make choosing your colour palette an enjoyable, but difficult task.
A stunning choice of two available alloy wheel designs in 15” and 17” sizes, as well as one standard 15” steel wheel package that help round out the look and performance of the Venue.
Sharp modern wraparound headlights merge into sidelines that continue uninterrupted to the rear taillights, reflecting a strong continuous line.
Available distinct signature LED headlights as well as LED taillights to clearly see and be seen. Optional high beam assist is a welcome feature to keep the road ahead well lit, without blinding oncoming traffic.
So, let’s take a peek inside the Venue to see what it has to offer.
When it comes time to take a seat, we have you covered with heated front seats and optional heated steering wheel to help combat our cold Ontario winters. Proximity keyless entry with push-button start, coupled with available remote start, makes getting into a freezing or sweltering vehicle a thing of the past. Perfect for hot summer days or cold winter nights when warmth feels more like a precious commodity!
A standard, and very innovative trunk/cargo shelf makes loading & unloading cargo and luggage a snap. When not needed, you can simply fold it out of the way, while still keeping it neatly inside your vehicle. 6040 rear folding seats are versatile, especially when coupled with a two-level trunk floor to accommodate items small or tall. The Venue’s compact design makes super-efficient use of space allowing every inch of its interior to be utilized.
When it’s time to get settled in the cabin, available climate Temperature Control helps keep you comfortable, no matter what the outside environment throws at you. Great storage areas for both you & your passengers help keep all your gear and electronics in place. An available power sunroof invites in the sunlight or the evening stars.
Our cities are only getting more congested, which is why the new Venue surrounds you with the available Hyundai SmartSense safety technologies. Advanced features that make sure you not only get to where you’re going, but that get you there safely!
Six distinct safety technology features round out the system, which includes available:
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
- Lane Departure Warning
- Blind-Spot Collision Warning
- Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning

These detection & emergency autonomous braking systems kick in when you can’t react quickly enough. This is where modern technology and safety merge and hit the road with you.

BlueLink Connected Remote Services provides options at your fingertips while being physically away from your vehicle. Once you set up the BlueLink system, you can easily locate your vehicle, heat or cool the interior, or in the unfortunate event of an accident, call local emergency services. Peace-of-mind is only a press away.
The Venue’s system and standard 8” touch screen, along with Hyundai’s Navigation system help you quickly arrive at your destination, safe & sound. And when it comes to sound, both Apple Carplay & Android Auto smartphone connectivity instantly make things feel and look familiar. Easy access to all your music, playlists and podcasts, piped through an available 6-speaker audio system, customized to your taste, making you feel right at home while on the road.

Venue’s performance begins with the Smartstream G1.6 litre engine, optimized for fuel efficiency and performance, generating 121 horsepower.
Available 6-speed manual transmission, or Smartstream Intelligent Variable Transmission, (IVT). This IVT transmission replicates the natural feel of a conventional transmission shifting gears, providing a familiar sensation when under acceleration. The choice is yours, with both options offering great fuel efficiency, performance attributes and ride-comfort.
The Venue offers an ultra-rigid vehicle chassis called SUPERSTRUCTURE. It’s designed to be stronger, stiffer and lighter than conventional steel. Being unsatisfied with current conventional steel options, Hyundai decided to create its own Advanced High-Strength Steel. This subsequently translates into crisper handling, greater occupant comfort and increased safety in the event of a collision.
Five Venue packages are available, beginning with the Essential FWD, Preferred FWD, Trend FWD (an Optional Urban Package equipment Plus) and the Ultimate FWD.
