Another tiny tall car
I like the colour of the Venue. I'm not sure about the newer Kona look.

I like the colour of the Venue. I'm not sure about the newer Kona look.
After living with the car for a while, what are the biggest pros and cons?
What surprised you the most? Good or bad?
Any common issues, things you wish you knew before buying, or features you now appreciate?
How’s the real-world fuel economy, maintenance cost, ride comfort, highway stability, and long-term reliability?
Please mention:
• Model year
• Engine
• Kilometers driven
Looking forward to hearing your ownership experiences.
My wife painted black the chrome from the 2025 Ultimate front grill! Loving it!
Mine is the 2021 Venue Ultimate Denim on the right. This Mini Cooper seems the same size? Interior space same?
Update: I heard back from insurance and the collision center that is doing the repairs, it is not totalled thankfully. About $3k in repairs and I am not held responsible for anything, including the repair costs.
My beautiful 41k mile 2020 was ripped apart by a uhaul while it was parked. The guy who did it did call the cops on himself and has been cooperative but I’m so sad. I’m really hoping there isn’t much structural damage. Anyone ever have something like this happen before?
Has anyone experienced transmission issues? Just recently my Venue has started to shift and hesitate while driving. It's even worse on the hwy and was randomly revving. I'm taking her in to get codes checked tomorrow. I just hope its not something $$. I have a 2020 venue that I purchased used three years ago. It has less than 100,000 k on it then and about 165 on it now. I love this car as it's been a worry free ride so far. Last week the lights all went at once and my partner replace those. And now this. Maybe it's just at that age where things start falling apart.
My tiny tall 2021 Venue Ultimate Denim and I went out kayaking today. I love this little car. Such character.
Just bought a 2022 SEL this Friday! Absolutely loving it, especially after coming from something bigger. Gotta come up with a name now! (would love some suggestions! thinking maybe Franklin?) And maybe do a lil decorating on the inside, a bumper sticker or two, etc.
also - posted friday night about having some issues with the car initially, but they were all resolved it seems at the dealer under my 500mile/15day warranty and I picked it up yesterday, working good so far!
What are the two buttons to the left of the SOS? Would you use them during normal driving?
After a lot of research, I’ll be booking Venue HX6 DCT this week (my first ever car!) — but I’m unable to finalise the colour. I like titan grey but I have been told white is better choice because scratches are less visible on it. Can y’all please help with guidance?
Hi everyone,
I’ve latest model Venue with 16,000 km. Recently it got some noise from the engine side and Hyundai Service Centre said to replace Oil pump, Chain tensioner and chain guide.
Is this normal for a new car only did 16,000 km and can someone guide me how to handle this? Should i escalate further or let the service centre do it under warranty?
I bought a 2023 Hyundai Venue a few months ago. I love this car! I’ve had a persistent issue with a headlight warning ⚠️ on my dashboard (the passenger headlight is out) and just figured I just needed to get around to replacing the headlight. Well I just got around to it and the dang thing still isn’t working. So it’s not just a plug and play issue. What else could be wrong?? I obviously double checked the part and that it was installed securely. What are my next steps to diagnosing this?
Our '20 base model (1.6, CVT) rolled over 150,000 miles the other day. That's about 241,000km. We bought it with 900.
Next weekend it will get its 28th oil change and second coolant change.
I'm starting to get a few pops from the rear so I think its time to find some shocks & mounts.
Anyone have one with higher mileage??
