The 2020 Hyundai Venue Is NOT What You Think It Is - Here's What This Quirky Crossover Is All About!

[@1guyin10]

Hyundai does a good job of paying attention to the small things that make a difference. They can make a cheap car that doesn't punish you for owning it.

[@dazednconfusedrn]

no it dosent. i had one as a rental car and it was a MISERABLE little wheezing econobox

Well going down under have caused a little stress for Andre. Looks like heading into a mirror world with right hand drive cars and switching from imperial to metric caused him to grow 3 inches. Poor Soyfan(sp) over on redline had the same problems as Andre. Just less bloopers here.

Did any one else notice that when he talks about the back leg room and says he’s sitting behind himself, he’s on the wrong side. He’s sitting behind the passenger seat. 😂

[@noelebbert9322]

He’s in Australia they use other side of cars

[@candlercando]

An Aussie would agree with Remy Asselin. He’s sitting on the rear left side when he was actually driving in the right side so the question is did he also sit in the front passenger ( left side). Most reviewers show themselves sitting behind the drivers seat after they adjust

[@BigRobChicagoPL]

Did I hear 6 speed manual? ;)

[@altrock86]

Robert PL9501 best feature about the car

[@jeffmorse645]

Those CUVs/SUVs like this, the C-HR and Nissan Kicks are nothing more than glorified hatchbacks. If it doesn't have available AWD its not a SUV.

[@2004cyrus]

Jeff Morse right it’s a crossover, most people don’t need AWD. SUV’s are on truck frames like the 4-Runner by Toyota or a Dodge Durango. People know these aren’t to go in the woods. It’s a good run about for city dwellers that need reliable & efficient and safe transportation to get groceries or run to the movies or go get a massage: and the happy ending is getting into a Venue for an easy drive home.

[@altrock86]

I agree. I’m not real big into off roading and I don’t believe all suvs should be body on frame but at least make awd or four wheel drive an option if you are going to call it a cuv/suv. If awd isn’t even an option I think I would rather have it like an inch lower and call it a hatchback.

[@onemansvintage]

This thing had me at the manual park brake and the six speed manual, of course I wish they would have given us the option of the manual on every trim.

[@3811eric]

Thanks for the video!! Perfect SUV for the single life! Not too shabby and looks like it will scoot fine for college singles!!! I am getting one for my daughter!!!

[@SohailAmin]

Why no 1.0 Ltr Turbo Petrol and 7 Speed DCT which is available in India, also it seems many features are missing in the Aus version

[@lyndenjeffries2735]

It is kind of strange to hear your voice but seeing a right hand drive. I do hope your enjoying the weather and country side.

[@ahumanwhousestheinternet7483]

The top Indian spec SX OPTIONAL trim Venue comes with rear AC vents, rear armrest, sunroof, wireless charger, cluster ionizer, projector fog lamps near the air curtain inlets and a 1.0 litre 3 cylinder turbocharged engine which produces the same power as the 1.6 with a 7speed DCT or 6 speed manual

[@travisp11]

How much does it cost with all of those options?

[@mrme4362]

@@travisp11 About 20k Australia dollars.

[@dehydratedwater9734]

I'm more intrested in your backpack! Where did you get that from I would love to get one like that. Lol

[@1_Papa]

I like it! It's not quite as good looking as the Nissan Kicks, but better looking than Toyota CHR or Kia Soul. Also, rear seats vents and USB ports are needed here; as is a sunroof option, but for a cheapie crossover (hatchback sedan) this is pretty cool! Condoms not included, I take it? 😛! 🐰

[@2004cyrus]

Papa the American spec will be optioned differently

[@1_Papa]

@@2004cyrus I figured as much, but as people from the manufacturers often watch videos like these to get the opinion of the general buying public (pointed out by many journalists who write and or produced these types of videos and many times in the past) I decided to assert my option as to what features I think will be needed for our market, Joshua.

[@ryanforprez2008]

I'd buy it. But I'm stylish like that.

[@jmj267]

I think some people will like this car for what it gives you and what they need and nothing more. And I'd like to know how in Australia you grew three inches for your Headroom test? I thought you were 6-2

[@Sarkus01]

Nice video, but you spent a lot of time in this covering the stuff covered in the previous Venue video. This should have been mostly the drive impression, IMHO.

[@adambuesser6264]

What is the price for this vehicle?

[@2004cyrus]

Adam Buesser did you not watch the video? Pricing hasn’t been officially released but I bet you can figure it out on your own. It’s a sub compact. So use your imagination.

[@daytona3927]

If this is smaller than the Kona it is TINY.

[@randysmith1107]

Tiny compared to what? Have you ever been in a Miata? A Vette? An early model Nissan Pickup? A Chevy Spark? A “Smart” car? C’mon man!

[@headhunter6049]

It is already launched in india

[@matthewgaines10]

It's a Kia Soul from Hyundai except in more conservative packaging regardless of what you say.

[@christopherharris3229]

Exactly. The Soul shares some of its platform with the Accent also.

[@jeroenjansen2709]

I like it because, as small as it is, it is not cute. How does it compare to the Kicks?

[@palebeachbum]

I like the squared off styling. I think it's a really nice looking subcompact CUV. I also like that it's really more of a tall hatchback than a full blown CUV. That means it's got better ingress/egress, better handling, and better MPGs. Makes more sense as an everyday point A to B vehicle for the masses. We really need to get away from these ungainly, impractical high riding SUVs. Pointless vehicles for the average consumer's commuting and on pavement journeys. Hyundai hit a home run with this one. Definitely more of a city runabout with the subcompact size and low power numbers though. If I didn't like my Elantra so much and had the cash to burn, I'd consider looking into this one.

[@superset5]

"Here's What This Quirky Crossover Is All About!" - It's not in any way "quirky". It's just a small SUV.

[@JT-fq2bl]

Hyundai is already working on the engine options. 1.6 N/A for the masses, 1.2t (it's in the next gen Elantra) for the N-Line, and 1.6t for the N.

[@wmc128]

Thank you for info.

[@Julian-do7bv]

Pretty neat little vehicle but it needs AWD to be a crossover and would sell better if it did have AWD

[@2004cyrus]

Agree. Arm rests are a deal-breaker for me in many small vehicles. It's not impossible to do. Even Fiat 500 has nice armrests.

[@glennkennedy441]

Ya lost me at no AWD......but maybe someday ?

[@racineurr.8924]

So difficult to relate to right hand drive. Don't understand why put a city car n a country style environment and even trying to show its off terrain capabilities. See that often in reviews: vehicles in their wrong environment. Guess when reviewers see a vehicle "looking" like a SUV automatically imagine they are big 4X4 all terrain vehicles. Like when back then when the badge GT on any kind of car trickled into thinking it was a Corvette...

Hi Andre I always enjoy your cars and truck reviews and that goes for the rest of the gang. I almost fainted when you said that your 6’5”, In almost all of your cars and truck reviews when your getting in the back seat you always mention that you 6’2” but in this review as you getting in the back seat as always, I hear you saying how tall you are, but in this instant you didn’t say I am 6’2” I heard you saying , I am 6’5” inches tall. Andre what gives, have you grown 3” since the last video review, or did I hear wrong, What gives Andre? Ps: In the video at 9: minutes 58 seconds I hear you saying I am 6’5” If you don’t believe me go back and check the video. So Andre which is it? And no fibbing.
