Hyundai Venue N Line 2025: What to expect?

Hyundai’s N Line variants are the sportier versions of the models on which they are based. They also get special red highlights inside and out, along with exclusive ‘N Line’ badging. The next-gen Hyundai Venue N Line gets a new design for the grille and alloy wheels, and a faux skid plate. Other cosmetic elements will be identical to the next-gen Venue.

Not much is known about the interior layout of the next-gen Venue so far. It is expected to borrow the design language of the Creta and Alcazar SUVs. Its N Line variant will get red highlights throughout its interior, including the dashboard and upholstery. Hyundai will also upgrade the ADAS features with a Level 2 package. This package will include features like Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning, Blind Spot Avoidance Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, Driver Attention Warning, Smart Cruise Control, and more.

The current-gen Hyundai Venue N Line rocks an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system that comes with connected car tech. It also gets a digital instrument cluster, a powered driver’s seat, voice commands, ambient lighting, and a dashcam with a dual camera. Safety features include 6 airbags, Electronic Stability Programme (ESP), brake assist, and hill start assist.

No changes will be made under the hood as the next-gen Hyundai Venue will continue to be powered by the 1.0-litre 3-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine. This engine generates a maximum power of 118bhp and 172Nm of torque. It is mated to a 7-speed DCT gearbox with paddle shifters.
