2025 Cupra Ateca V review
The Ateca V mid-sized SUV offers plenty of pep and stellar driving dynamics, but it's tainted by the fact a more-powerful VZx version already exists.

Colours Available
The only interior colourway on offer is Petrol Blue, with copper stitching found throughout the cabin.
The Ateca will be available in the following finishes:
- Nevada White
- Graphite Grey
- Magic Black
All finishes are a no-cost option, with one premium paint finish – Dark Camouflage – costing $475.
The 2023 Hyundai Venue is available in the following exterior finishes:
- Atlas White
- Abyss Black
- Shimmering Silver
- Cosmic Grey
- Fiery Red
- Intense Blue

All bar Atlas White cost an extra $595.
All models have a black interior as standard, though the Elite can be specified with a Denim interior colourway. This is only available on vehicles finished in Shimmering Silver or The Denim.
The Elite can be had with a two-tone exterior treatment, with a contrast colour for the roof, mirror caps and side garnishes, however this deletes the sunroof.
