Check out the buyer reviews of the 2021 Hyundai Venue
"Even though the Venue’s 1.6-liter engine puts out only 121 horsepower, Hyundai’s smallest crossover feels reasonably peppy". - Kelly Blue Book
The 2021 Hyundai Venue gets the same 1.6L naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine. This engine churns out 121 hp and 112 lb-ft. Though these numbers feel adequate for a city commute, once you hit the highway, the lack of power is pretty evident in the way this crossover hustles ahead.
The CVT, as expected, is very slow, and you can feel the shifts happening. The 2021 Venue's four-banger never exactly feels weak, but it doesn't move the vehicle with much authority either. Acceleration is good enough in most cases, but it takes time to gallop from a stop.
The 2021 Hyundai Venue can accelerate from 0-60 mph in 9.8 seconds. The quarter-mile mark is achieved in 16.8 seconds. The Venue comes to a halt in just 116ft from 60mph. With the SEL trim, you even get disc brakes at the rear, which can provide more stopping power.

The Hyundai Venue and the Nissan Kicks stand at the top in terms of mileage followed by the Honda HR-V. The 2021 Ford Ecosport's mileage totally contradicts its performance, being the slowest in the segment. The EcoSport further worsens its case with the poorest mpg figures on offer.
"This Hyundai comes with one of the most user-friendly infotainment systems in the subcompact SUV class". - Cars.USNews

"The Venue has the tall-hatchback thing down pat. It’s clearly not an SUV, but it’s not a slippery, sporty hot hatch, either".- The Car Connection
There are no exterior or cosmetic changes for the American version of the 2021 Hyundai Venue. The Venue does look appealing in its Denim variant with white inserts on the exteriors, the slanting taillights, and the new headlight position with Indicators.
The 2021 Hyundai Venue is modern and provides iconic design language. The 2020 Venue's exterior goes against the conventional design language of cars as the primary headlight comes integrated with the fog lamps. The sleek lamps that appear to be the primary headlights just serve the purpose of a DRL.
