The Venue gets a new SX+ and Sport trim in its lineup
India’s largest passenger car exporter, Hyundai has tweaked the variant list of the Venue by adding multiple variants. The intelligent Manual Transmission (iMT) tech debuts with the Venue which combines the convenience of a clutch-less drive experience with the fun of a manual gear shifting. Additionally, the subcompact SUV gets SX+ and Sport trims as well.
Have a look at the prices of the Hyundai Venue variants launched today:

How is Hyundai Venue Sport different from other variants?
The subcompact SUV gets a two-tone exterior paint job with grey shade and contrasting phantom black roof along with another option of white with phantom black roof. To give it a sportier appearance, the front grille is done in a glossy black shade with a red insert. It gets a dark grey garnishing on the front bumper. Red inserts on the wheel arches and body side moulding also enhance the sportier quotient of the new trim.
Step in the cabin of the Venue Sport and you will be greeted by the D-cut steering with paddle shifters (only on automatic trim). Moreover, it gets all grey upholstery and red inserts on various places such as gear knobs, steering, etc.

CarBikeIndia Says
Indeed, the idea of iMT is tempting. We have seen the overwhelming response we received with the AMT tech in India, which made automatic cars more affordable. The iMT experience will definitely lure those buyers who wanted to enjoy the convenience of automatic cars but didn’t want to lose on the thrill of manual shifts. This should work in Hyundai’s way. Let’s see how the buyers respond.
