Hyundai Venue news

Hyundai Venue overtakes the Maruti Brezza to become the second best-selling subcompact SUV

The Hyundai Exter is based on the Grand i10 Nios, positioned as a micro SUV below the Venue

The list featured the same cars in the top five rankings as seen in May 2023, with a slight shuffling in their order

The next best-selling model, the Hyundai Venue, is behind them by a few thousand units

As diesel options have become quite pricey and rare, these select few models are still affordable with the torquey and efficient engine

The Exter will be positioned below the Hyundai Venue as a direct rival to the Tata Punch

Only the Renault and Nissan SUVs are readily available in some of the top cities on the list

But it should also be noted that its sales figure comprises the sales numbers of Nexon EV Prime and Nexon EV Max as well

As usual, Maruti’s hatchback trio tops the sales chart, though the Nexon has overtaken the Brezza in terms of sales in April 2023

All Hyundai cars now get 3-point seatbelts and seatbelt reminders as standard following the Indian government’s directive

Most models in this segment witnessed a growth in sales with three models crossing the 10,000-unit mark

While Fronx is an SUV-crossover, it’s still as an alternative to the similar sized subcompact SUVs.

The recently launched Verna, along with the Kona Electric and Ioniq 5, are unaffected by the price hike.

Maruti Brezza, Kia Sonet and Renault Kiger registered improved sales over January, while most other subcompact SUVs saw a big drop in sales.
