- Venuenow gets a six-speed manual transmission
- iMT discontinued after the launch of MY23 Venue
Hyundai India introduced the 2023 Venue in the country earlier this month, with prices starting at Rs. 10.32 lakh (ex-showroom). The carmaker brought back the manual transmission option with the turbo-petrol engine, thus discontinuing the iMT variants.
The Hyundai Venue iMT was previously offered in three variants, namely S(O) 1.0 Turbo, SX(O) 1.0 Turbo, and SX(O) 1.0 Turbo dual-tone. These variants are now available with a six-speed manual transmission. The Venue N-Line, which was previously sold only with a DCT unit, also gets a six-speed manual transmission in the N6, N8, and N8 dual-tone variants.
Last week, Hyundai launched the i20 facelift in the country, with prices starting at Rs. 6.99 lakh (ex-showroom). It received a range of updates inside out and is now offered only with a 1.2-litre NA petrol motor. We expect the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol mill to make a comeback in the coming months.
