Hyundai India has launched a new ‘Sport’ trim for the Venue crossover in addition to an Intelligent Manual Transmission (iMT) that was announced earlier this month. The Sport trim is essentially a visual upgrade over the SX and SX (O) trims and is available both in petrol and diesel options.
Venue Sport trim pricing:
Powertrains | 1.0L turbo petrol with iMT | 1.0L turbo petrol with 7DCT | 1.5L turbo diesel with 6MT | ||
Trim | SX | SX (O) | SX+ | SX | SX (O) |
Ex-showroom price (INR) | 10,20,360 | 11,20,900 | 11,58,400 | 10,30,700 | 11,52,700 |
Venue with iMT pricing:
Powertrain | 1.0L turbo petrol with iMT | |
Trim | SX | SX (O) |
Ex-showroom price (INR) | 9,99,990 | 11,08,500 |
For those who don’t want any of the above, there’s also a 1.2-litre petrol engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, with prices starting at INR 8,31,900, ex-showroom.

As mentioned, the Sport trim is all about visual upgrades. It gets a dual-tone exterior paint finish, gloss black front grille with a red insert, red calipers, and dark grey roof rails with a red insert. Interior gets dark grey upholstery, metal pedals, red accents on the knobs, and red contrast stitching. Download the updated brochure here.
The clutch pedal-less iMT!
As we discussed previously, the clutch pedal-less 6-speed manual transmission — dubbed as ‘iMT’, is coupled with the 1.0-litre 3-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine. In simple words, the driver will operate a traditional H-pattern manual transmission without a clutch pedal. Read more about the iMT here. There won’t be any change in the engine’s output; the turbo petrol offers the same 120 hp and 172 Nm (127 lb-ft) of torque.
