Overview

• Fresh spy photos from India show an N Line test mule with dual exhaust tips, a full-width LED light bar, sequential indicators and lower-set LED headlamps.
• Autocar India reports the next-gen Venue is slated for an October 24 India launch, with N Line variants expected soon after and possibly from day one, though Hyundai has not confirmed this.
• Reporting indicates the N Line will retain the 120 hp 1.0‑litre turbo-petrol, with emphasis on a firmer suspension, sharper steering response and a sportier exhaust note rather than power gains.
• Gearbox choices are expected to include a 6-speed manual and a dual-clutch automatic, with Autocar citing a 7-speed DCT for the turbo engine.
• The cabin is anticipated to mirror the new Venue’s twin curved displays and upgraded materials with N-specific touches such as darker upholstery, contrast stitching and a sportier steering wheel, and pricing is expected to sit slightly above standard trims against rivals like Brezza, Sonet, Nexon and XUV 3XO.
