The 2025 Hyundai Venue arrives with a comprehensive overhaul, boasting a sharper design, a significantly premium cabin, and a host of segment-leading technology.1 To cater to a broad spectrum of buyers, Hyundai has introduced a new “HX” variant nomenclature, carefully distributing features across the range from the entry-level to the top-tier trims.2
Here is a detailed look at what each key variant of the new Venue offers in terms of features:
Breaking the mold for a base variant, the HX2 focuses on providing essential safety and core technology without forcing buyers to compromise on their preferred powertrain.
The Takeaway: The HX2 is an unprecedented entry-level offering, providing a large touchscreen, standard 6 airbags, and rear AC vents right from the start.10
The HX4 trim acts as a sensible step-up, enhancing everyday practicality and adding a crucial layer of safety convenience features.
The Takeaway: This variant is designed for the value-conscious buyer who wants the confidence of a rear camera and TPMS for daily city driving.12
The HX5 is arguably the most versatile variant, as it opens up the entire suite of engine and transmission combinations (1.2L Petrol MT, 1.0L Turbo Petrol MT/DCT, 1.5L Diesel MT/AT) and significantly boosts comfort.
The Takeaway: For the first time, a mid-level Venue variant provides almost every engine-gearbox option and includes premium comforts like a sunroof and push-button start.
These mid-to-high trims build on the foundation of the HX5, focusing on advanced lighting, interior comfort, and, in the case of HX8, a performance-focused experience.
