2023 Hyundai Venue Essential! It will SHOCK you!! full review!

2023 Hyundai VENUE Essential full review!

[@MitchC357]

I bought a 2023 Venue SLE last month. It is an amazing car. Over 45 mpg on hwy. More than enough power. A great car.. The only thing I did was did a legal window tint after buying.. Amazing car for the money. Even has a moonroof.

Thanks for the comment!

[@theoldmanandthesea6380]

How are you getting 45 mpg? The stats I see say 33 hwy. is there a hybrid model available where you are? What am I missing?

[@edsgarage001]

Honestly, the numbers on the stats are overly easy to achieve. I have many clients telling me they're getting the kind of mileage that he's claiming. The window sticker numbers are super pessimistic lol

[@MitchC357]

@@theoldmanandthesea6380 the fact is I get better mileage than EPA estimates. If you don't accelerate quickly and drive properly your mileage will be much higher than average.

Picking up my 23 venue on Monday 😄 got a great lease price and hundai doesn't go 10 or 15% over the market price! Very affordable for sure great features and mpg, thanks for the review

[@edsgarage001]

Right on!

[@ellorial]

@@edsgarage001 I'm getting the 10,000 miles lease but I'm considering going up to the 15,000 miles lease because it's only $30 more a month. Do you think it's worth it to take the extra mileage just in case? What do they charge for over 10,000 mi?

[@edsgarage001]

I'm not actually sure, as I'm in Canada. I can tell you that in Canada it's 12 cents per km over. $3 is worth it though in my opinion, that way it's not something you need to worry about and if you decide to keep the car in the future, it'll likely be worth more then the buyout as it'll have less then the expected mileage.

Awesome video! I ordered an SEL last night! Now I know what all the buttons are. 👍🏻

This was a very thorough video. Thank you. I'm thinking about a green apple SEL for myself. I'm just concerned that it might be too small as I am quite big. 😂 You may or may not know that if you leave the light on behind the sun visor, when you close the visor, it turns the light off due to how it was designed.

Great video and I am strongly considering this car having had a brilliant i10 in the UK before. Where is your dealership? It looks amazing with the mountains in the background!

[@daddyD07]

I bought myself a manual 2023 venue. It does pretty good. Doesnt come with that interior and map light, which i found weird. And also i noticed that most of the venues on youtube doesnt feature the wireless charger in underneath the charging ports up front underneath the ac controls

[@vinceyoder3227]

I think the Limited is the only one that has those other features

[@edsgarage001]

Yep, unless you spend more for the higher trim levels, you'll miss on some features. But that's pretty normal.

[@user-ld6lo7vd1i]

Really good video. Thank you. In your opinion is it worth jumping up to the preferred model over the essential?

[@edsgarage001]

I would say yes, as it adds some really nice features like blind spot monitor, push button start, proximity entry, remote start, etc.

[@user-ld6lo7vd1i]

Thank you so much for the quick response. I thought the Essential has push button and remote start as well? @@edsgarage001

Excellent video! Only thing missing is that the essential model now also has an armrest for the driver, unless I am mistaken?

[@edsgarage001]

No armrest At least in Canada anyway

[@edsgarage001]

Thx for the comment

[@vinceyoder3227]

In America - Venue Limited DOES had the armrest AND you can slide it forward which is really a cool feature

[@edsgarage001]

In Canada every trim has an armrest except for the base (which we call the essential) The limited in USA is the top trim

[@dyanimoriah]

I got the 2023 Venue SEL (mid tier) I love it! The wireless apple CarPlay, automatic lock when I move it out of park and automatic unlock. A sunroof! My only meh about it, is the sound quality. I don’t normally have my music loud but it’s so quiet! For the streets I have it at 30 and the freeway 45. I did come from a Honda Fit and my fit sound stereo and were really good. Also, I wish the time was in the cluster. Especially since the weather is on there. Can’t see why both can’t be on there. I’m averaging about 31mpg. Granted I’m on the freeway a lot, and use sport mode when I’m on the freeway. And drive pretty fast like 78-80mpg (I’m in LA so that speed is norm) I’m curious to what I can get if I only drive normal. My Honda fit averaged about 35mpg. But obviously my fit was quite a bit smaller and didn’t have a lot of horse power. 😅 Over all, I really love my car

[@edsgarage001]

Thank you for the comment! Many of our clients are seeing over 36mpg on the highway.. but our speed limits are pretty low here 😆

[@dyanimoriah]

@@edsgarage001 yeah, that’s really good! Over here the speed limit is more like a recommendation. Or more like starting speed. I’m sure if I drove the speed limit and took the streets more I’d have better mpg. But the freeway is a lot faster.

ngl the Fit was my choice but sadly in 2020 they were marketing them up by me I wasnt interested. Should have kept the Fit as a fleet car like most do now & improved on mpg somehow.

[@edsgarage001]

It might be a good idea to go to your salesperson at the dealership and show them what's going on. They should be able to help. Not knowing exactly what you're running into, or the cause, it's hard to suggest a course of action.

No, the 1.6l has been bullet proof. They have used the 1.6 for like 20 years now. It's been super reliable

What???

[@noiricha]

Now for a dose of reality - Hyundai /Kia has had a significant number of premature engine failures and Hyundai / Kia has denied warrantee claims on some of these failures. There have also been reports of oil consumption on some engines for which H/K will claim "this is normal". Most car reviewers are intoxicated by the off gassing of the plastics of a new car and ignore the reliability rating of the manufacturer - all European , Korean , Nissan , most North American vehicles fall into this category. Let the buyer beware.

[@edsgarage001]

The engine failures have been the 2.0 turbo and the 2.4l na. These engines are no longer used. And I'll add, that as long as regular maintenance has been done, Hyundai and ava Kia have been covering replacements, and are committed to doing so for life. I work at a dealership, and the only recall claims I've seen declined are for people who've done little to no maintenance. It's pretty easy to tell when a person hasn't maintained their vehicle. The 1.6L in the venue has been an extremely reliable engine for over a decade. As for reliability ratings, check JD power and associates, Hyundai and Kia have been killing it, and have climbed up in the ranks faster then any other company. For the last few years the Hyundai group has consistently been above average for reliability, even taking 3 of the top 4 spots for 2019. There's no excuse for the poor reliability of the 2.0 and 2.4.... but those are only two of the many engines they use and now they're not even used anymore. The fact that Hyundai has been growing so fast, is partially why the media has their microscopes trained on them. Hyundai is big news, both good and bad. Every company goes through this at some point. That sir, is the reality.

My Hyundai has over 200,000 miles and is still going strong. I've never had any issues with it, just been keeping up with maintenance.
