The 2024 Hyundai Venue is on sale now, with no changes coming to the light SUV despite a $500 price rise across the board.
Venue Elite
Hyundai hasn’t adjusted the Venue’s four-strong lineup, which continues to open with the base model – available with both manual and automatic transmissions – before moving up to the mid-range Active auto and the flagship Elite auto.
Priced from $22,500 before on-road costs in manual guise, the Hyundai Venue is just $210 dearer than the three-pedal Kia Stonic S, however the price gap widens when comparing the automatic variants, with the Venue’s $24,500 price tag incurring a $710 premium.
The Hyundai Venue faces stiff competition in the light SUV segment, with its 6152 sales in 2023 putting it behind the Mazda CX-3 (15,776 sales), Kia Stonic (6983 sales) and Toyota Yaris Cross (6514 sales).
