Does the Hyundai Venue's safety package cut it, since the vehicle hasn't been given an official GNCAP rating?

My Venue had a minor fender bender and it held up really well. The crumple zones had done their job and the cabin didn’t feel torn apart. I knew it would be safe, GNCAP rating or not.

On paper, the safety features are good, but without a GNCAP rating, this is a big miss in today’s market. Without that standardized test, it's hard to objectively compare it to rivals.

I believe Hyundai should have sent the Venue to GNCAP for testing. Buyer confidence isn't good with uncertainty. But it's likely safer than so many vehicles that were popular just a few years ago.

Crash test ratings are not the only thing that make for safety. The Venue's handling and braking make it a car you could feel confident in avoiding accidents in the first place. People often overlook that aspect of safety.
So is the Hyundai Venue's interior really as "premium" as people say?
03 January 2025 06:57
I honestly don't think the "premium" talk is overblown. Yes, it’s good value, but don’t get too excited, it’s still a budget compact SUV. The plastics aren't bad, but they're not luxury grade, or anything like that.

For the segment, I'd say it's pretty darn good. It is clean layout, and the silver accents and textured surfaces really add to it. It’s way more upscale than my old Maruti.

It's all relative, isn't it? Yeah, it’ll feel premium, compared to a 5 year old car. On its own, it doesn’t seem like much, but put it next to a Kia Seltos or even a higher trim Creta, and it doesn’t seem so fancy anymore. That’s good, but don’t get carried away.

I believe that people are confusing 'modern' with 'premium'. The Venue’s interior is certainly contemporary and well designed, but premium? That's stretching it. If you look closely, it’s still got plenty of hard plastics.

I've been owning a Venue for a year now, and I can tell you the interior has held up well, and still impresses me. Not luxury car level, but for the money, it definitely does punch above its weight. It’s also spot on ergonomics.
But does the Hyundai Venue’s 1.2L naturally aspirated engine feel underpowered for highway driving?
03 January 2025 06:57
It's not a powerhouse by any means but I've managed it on highways. All you need to do is plan your overtakes slightly better and use your gears smartly. The difference is really in the expectations – if you are coming from a more powerful vehicle, you will feel the difference.

I have the 1.2L and honestly it struggles on inclines when loaded up. It's ok on flat highways, but stick some hills and passengers in there and you'll be wishing for more oomph. Fine for city use though.

People tend to overstate the lack of power. It's not going to win drag races, but for normal driving, even on highways, it's fine. I travel 300km regularly and never felt unsafe or underpowered.

If you’re accustomed to turbocharged engines, the 1.2L NA will feel slow. It's all about driving style though. It's surprisingly capable and I've learned to keep momentum. It’s plus, the fuel has very good efficiency.

I wish I didn't go for the turbo version. Around town it's fine, but once on the highways, with a full car, it feels strain. If you do a lot of highway miles, the turbo is a serious consideration.

It's a mixed bag. It's peppy enough in the city. It cruises fine at 100km/h on highways, but you need to plan a bit when overtaking. It’s not dangerously underpowered, but it’s not a rocket, either.

In reality, I actually like the linear power delivery of the NA engine over the turbo for daily driver use. It’s smoother and more predictable. It’s not fast, sure, but it’s more than enough for 90% of driving situations.
Is the Hyundai Tucson's tech filled interior a step forward or a usability nightmare?

The interior looks very clean, but I will admit it can be a bit of a pain to adjust the AC while on the road. It still feels premium, though.

As a person who is not super tech savvy, I don't like that there are no physical buttons. I miss being able to adjust things without looking at the road.

I had to get used to it, it took me a week or two, but now I love the tech heavy interior. Driving this thing feels like I’m in a spaceship versus my old car!

I'm afraid those touch panels will not last very long. In a few years, what happens when the screen starts to get glitchy? It seems like an expensive fix.
