Hyundai has already confirmed that the 2025 Venue will come with 12.3-inch displays and level-2 ADAS
With the India launch of the second-generation Hyundai Venue fast approaching, you must have already seen plenty of spy shots of the new SUV and its sportier version online. Given that it’s a complete overhaul, the Venue will get a full makeover inside and out, along with a fresh set of features. In this story, we present to you the top 10 first-time features expected for the ‘Venue’ nameplate in India:
12.3-Inch Dual Digital Displays (Confirmed)
At its recently held first-ever Investor Day in India, Hyundai did disclose a few details of the new Venue, including its dual-digital displays setup. The Korean marque has confirmed that it will come with dual 12.3-inch displays, which are a size larger than the Creta’s 10.25-inch units. For now, the current-gen Hyundai Venue is equipped with an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment unit and a semi-digital instrument cluster.
8-speaker Audio System
One premium feature that’s grown in customer demand and preference in recent years is a good quality music system in cars. We have already seen other sub-4m SUVs like the Tata Nexon and Kia Syros offer a 9-speaker JBL system and an 8-speaker Harman Kardon unit, respectively. It’s about time Hyundai upped the game of the Venue from its current 6-speaker setup to possibly an 8-speaker Bose sound system, which it could borrow from the Creta or the bigger Alcazar SUV.
Dual-zone Climate Control
One useful feature that the upcoming Venue could get over the current-spec model is dual-zone climate control. It will enhance the comfort and convenience factor for both the driver and front passenger, both of whom may have different temperature preferences. For now, it’s only the Mahindra XUV 3XO that comes with dual-zone climate control in the sub-4m SUV segment.
Ventilated Seats
Another useful comfort and convenience feature that is expected to be a part of the new Venue’s equipment set is ventilated front seats. Hyundai might even go a step further and introduce rear seat ventilation as seen on the Kia Syros to give it an edge over its prime rivals. That said, we could expect ventilated seats to be reserved for the higher-spec variants of the second-gen Venue.

Panoramic Sunroof
The 2025 Hyundai Venue could also follow the latest trend of the sub-4m SUV segment which is of offering a panoramic sunroof, making it one of the few models after the Mahindra XUV 3XO, Tata Nexon, and Kia Syros to get this premium amenity. We, however, do expect it to be limited only to the top-spec or the higher-spec variants in the new Venue’s lineup. Hyundai currently provides the Venue with a single-pane sunroof option only.
Powered Co-driver Seat
To make it an even more comfortable and convenience-oriented offering, we expect Hyundai to equip the all-new Venue with a power-adjustable co-driver seat as seen on bigger Hyundai SUVs like the Creta and Alcazar. The current-spec Venue is offered with a 4-way power-adjustment for the driver seat only. On the other hand, the Skoda Kylaq is the only offering in the segment to get a powered co-driver seat for now.
360-degree Camera
If there’s one key convenience and safety feature that’s been democratised by carmakers in recent years in India, it’s the 360-degree camera system. With the inclusion of a 360-degree setup, manoeuvring the new Hyundai Venue in tight spaces will become slightly easier.
Today, multiple sub-4m SUVs such as the Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet, and even the facelifted Renault Kiger are available with this premium amenity. Currently, the Hyundai Venue is available with a single rear parking camera only.
