As your Hyundai destination, we're excited to show you how an SUV like the 2022 Venue can positively impact your life. From its economical powertrain and spacious cabin to its advanced safety features and industry-leading warranty coverage, the Venue is everything you never knew you needed in an SUV until now. How does Hyundai accomplish such a remarkable feat? It's time to find out.
It's Affordable
The 2022 Hyundai Venue is one of the most affordable subcompact SUVs in the segment, starting at $20,953 for the entry-level Essential trim.[a] The Venue Essential represents incredible value because of its standard features. For example, the SUV has a 20-cm touchscreen display, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, heated front seats, and heated side mirrors for optimal visibility. These standard features lay the foundation for the rest of the lineup, which culminates with the Ultimate. The top-tier Ultimate has every amenity and tech feature imaginable, from advanced safety tools like Front Collision-Avoidance Assist and Lane Keeping Assist to built-in navigation with MapCare support and automatic temperature control.
Understanding the scope of the Venue's value and affordability is best appreciated by comparing it to its rivals. Hyundai's Kona shares the segment with the Venue, but its starting price of $24,754 is noticeably higher.[a] Likewise, the Jeep Renegade capitalizes on the Jeep name, which sends its starting price sky-high to $36,590. Not even Nissan models can compete, with the Qashqai exceeding the Venue's starting MSRP at $27,598.
The Venue's affordability extends beyond what you'll pay upfront to other factors in the overall cost of ownership, such as the cost of fuel and maintenance and repair expenses over time. Unsurprisingly, the Venue also excels in these categories and has earned numerous honours that recognize its overall value. These honours include three consecutive Kelley Blue Book "5-Year Cost to Own" awards and being named the Best Value Car of 2022 by Cars.com. With accolades like that, you know you will save money with this model.
It's an Agile and Efficient Urban Adventurer
As a subcompact SUV, the Venue is engaging to drive because it's easy to maneuver in any condition. Hyundai guarantees as much by equipping the Venue with its 1.6L engine that delivers 121 hp and 113 lb-ft of torque. In addition, you can choose between a standard six-speed manual transmission or the available Smartstream Intelligent Variable Transmission. This upgrade enhances the Venue's performance without forcing it to guzzle fuel. The result is impressive, with the automatic-transmission Venue rated for 7.9 L/100 km in the city and 6.9 L/100 km on the highway.
Harnessing the Venue's full power and potential is easy with the SUV's driving modes. You can switch between Snow, Sand, and Mud modes to tailor the Venue's performance to match the conditions at hand. With each mode, the system adjusts the Venue's power output to enhance traction and give you more confidence when navigating slippery conditions. Plus, with 170 mm of ground clearance, you will have no problem in snow or on dirt roads.
It's Tech-Savvy and Brilliant
This Hyundai SUV does something genuinely impressive by ensuring drivers never have to choose between having the latest technology and staying within their budget. Hyundai makes this possible by equipping the Venue with a healthy suite of available technology features that run the gamut from proximity keyless entry with remote start to digital displays, built-in navigation, and driver-assist features. How do these features make the Venue tech-savvy and brilliant?
The Venue's proximity keyless entry with remote start adds convenience, allowing you to leave your keys in your pocket to unlock the doors and start the engine. Once in the driver's seat, you'll have access to everything you need via the 9-cm TFT Supervision Instrument Cluster and 20-cm high-definition touchscreen display. The instrument cluster presents vital data like speed, mileage, and fuel level, while the central display gives you access to your smartphone via wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. The Venue's infotainment system also boasts an array of features, including an available navigation system, Bluetooth capability, and SiriusXM radio.
When you're not in the driver's seat, the Venue's technology is still at work thanks to the Blue Link-connected vehicle system. The Blue Link smartphone app gives you remote access to the Venue, allowing you to lock and unlock the doors, control the climate in the cabin, or start the engine. Beyond these features, Blue Link also offers an automatic collision notification feature that can alert emergency personnel in your time of need.
It Prioritizes Your Safety
If we didn't know any better, we'd think the Venue was explicitly designed for Edmonton drivers. This SUV makes your safety a priority, from its ultra-rigid chassis known as the SUPERSTRUCTURE to its advanced safety and driver-assist features. The chassis is built with Hyundai's Advanced High-Strength Steel, which is lightweight yet stronger and stiffer than conventional steel. This unique design gives the Venue a sturdy footprint, enhancing its overall safety, fuel economy, and ride quality.
Beyond the high-strength steel frame, the Venue's active safety and driver-assist technology also play an integral role in your experience on the road. The Hyundai SmartSense suite is engineered to surround you with safety and includes advanced features like Blind-Spot Collision Warning with Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning and Lane Change Assist, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection, a Driver Attention Warning, and High Beam Assist. While these tools enhance your visibility and minimize the potential for collision, the Venue's Vehicle Stability Management with Electronic Stability Control and Traction Control System actively enhance the SUV's grip on the road to help you maintain control.
It Always Has You Covered
Hyundai makes the Venue even more enticing by offering one of the best warranty programs in Canada. Your new Venue will come with a five-year or 100,000-km limited warranty, powertrain warranty, and emissions warranty. Even better, the perks don't stop there. You'll also reap the benefits of ongoing rewards, like access to 24-hour roadside assistance that guarantees help is only a phone call away whether you need a flat tire changed, fuel delivery, towing, or lockout service.
Engineering Confidence Every Kilometre Ahead
Subcompact SUVs like the 2022 Venue are an excellent way to improve your time on the road, whether running errands in town, dropping the kids off at school, or navigating your weekday commute. The Venue's affordable price and many standard features make it an incredible value for everyone. At the same time, its compact size and capable powertrain ensure it can handle all your driving needs throughout Edmonton and beyond. The Venue's tech-savvy features and industry-leading warranty coverage are icing on the cake, giving you more reasons to say "yes" to investing in one of Hyundai's top sellers.
