2025 Hyundai Venue vs Venue N-Line: Here’s what’s different

Hyundai India is all set to launch the new and updated 2025 Venue in the Indian market tomorrow, i.e, November 4, 2025. The refreshed model brings a completely redesigned exterior, an all-new cabin, added features, and a body that’s now taller and wider than before.

The company is also set to launch a sportier version of the standard model, called the Venue N Line, which comes with a host of performance-inspired updates and cosmetic enhancements. Bookings are already underway, and customers can reserve their Venue either online or at authorised Hyundai dealerships, with deliveries slated to commence by the end of November. In this article, let’s take a look at the differences between the Venue and Venue N-Line.

Exterior differencesJust like before, the 2025 Venue N Line is based on the standard model but features a series of cosmetic upgrades that give it a more aggressive and sportier appearance. The front retains the full-width LED DRLs that flow into the quad-beam LED headlights, creating a striking C-shaped signature. However, the N Line’s grille sports a unique insert pattern and an N badge, while the bumper has been reshaped with a leaner skid plate for a sharper look.

Adding to its flair, red accents run along the lower body, beginning at the bumpers and wrapping around the SUV for a distinct, sporty edge.

On the sides, the differences become even more apparent. The 2025 Venue N Line skips the plastic cladding around the wheel arches, giving it a cleaner and more athletic profile. It rides on new 5-spoke alloy wheels featuring ‘N’ branding, complemented by red-painted brake callipers and N Line badging on the fenders.

At the rear, both versions feature the connected LED taillight bar, but a closer look reveals subtle distinctions.

The N Line gets a dual-hump roof spoiler with an air slit, a more aggressive bumper, and twin exhaust tips that emphasise its performance-inspired stance.Interior and feature differencesInside, the cabin layout remains familiar, but the N Line variant adopts a sportier all-black interior with contrasting red stitching and accents, replacing the standard car’s blue-and-grey tones.

The steering wheel, gear lever, and seats all carry ‘N’ badging, while the Drive and Traction mode controls have now been integrated into the steering wheel instead of the console knob. The ambient lighting also switches from moon white to sporty red, complementing the overall theme.

Feature-wise, both models come equally loaded - with dual 12.3-inch displays (for the cluster and infotainment), wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, automatic climate control, ventilated front seats, an 8-speaker Bose sound system, wireless charging, and a single-pane sunroof.

On the safety front, equipment such as six airbags, ABS with EBD, electronic stability control (ESC), 360-degree camera, front and rear parking sensors, tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and Level 2 ADAS.

Engine optionsThe standard Venue continues to offer three engine options - a 120hp, 172 nm 1.0-litre turbo-petrol, an 83hp, 113 nm 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol, and a 116hp, 250 nm 1.5-litre turbo diesel.

The NA petrol engine will be offered only with a manual gearbox. The turbo-petrol will get both MT and a 7-speed DCT, and the diesel continues to get an MT gearbox. Additionally, for the first time, the Venue will feature a torque converter automatic gearbox with the diesel engine.

The Venue N-Line is offered only with a single engine option - a 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder, turbo petrol engine with 120 PS power and 172 Nm torque.

Gearbox options include a 6-speed manual and a 7-speed dual clutch automatic gearbox. The Venue N Line is expected to feature slightly stiffer suspension tuning, a slightly stiffened steering wheel, and a sportier exhaust note, aimed at delivering a more engaging driving experience than the standard model.Variants, colour optionsThe 2025 Venue variants will be called the “HX series,” which is short for Hyundai Experience.

The petrol trims will include HX2, HX4, HX5, HX6, HX6T, HX8, and HX10, while the diesel variants will be offered as HX2, HX5, HX7, and HX10 variants. The Venue N-Line will be offered in two variants - N6 and N10.

The 2025 Hyundai Venue will be offered in six monotone and two dual-tone paint options. The monotone - Hazel Blue (new), Mystic Sapphire (new), Dragon Red, Abyss Black, Atlas White, and Titan Grey. Dual-tone options are Hazel Blue with Abyss Black roof and Atlas White with Abyss Black roof. The Venue N-Line is offered in five monotone options - Hazel Blue, Dragon Red, Abyss Black Titan Grey, Atlas White and three dual-tone paint options.
