The Hyundai Venue has surpassed the monthly sales of Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza in March. Maruti Suzuki which sold 5,513 units of the Vitara Brezza, was pushed down to the second place by Hyundai, which sold 6,127 models of Venue in March.
At its launch, the Hyundai Venue sent ripples across the rapidly growing compact SUV segment, posing as the first connected car to enter the Indian automotive landscape. The Venue features Hyundai’s first-ever 1.0-litre Kappa turbocharged GDI Petrol engine mated to an in-house developed 7-speed DCT transmission, which is alongside an option of 6-speed and 5-speed manual transmission.
The Venue is Hyundai’s first model in India to feature the ‘Blue Link’ connectivity solution, with 33 connected features. It also gets live car tracking, geo-fencing and speed alerts that can all be checked via an app that connects to the SUV.
