What’s more impressive is that the feat was achieved in just 13 months with Venue witnessing sales well above 8,000 units a month on average. Although it forayed into a highly competitive segment, it quickly managed to become a popular offering, despite competition from cars such as Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, Tata Nexon, Mahindra XUV300 & Ford EcoSport, etc.
Commenting on the achievement SS Kim, MD & CEO of Hyundai India said:
“Hyundai VENUE is India’s first Fully Connected SUV and most awarded Car of The Year 2019-20 setting a chord with New Age customers. With Venue, we have pioneered Fully Connected technology for customers. Additionally, VENUE has paved the way to democratize Global Technologies such as Kappa 1.0 l T-GDi & 7-Speed DCT for Hyundai cars in India, offering customers’ excitement, delight and enhanced value.”
