Hyundai Venue Knight Edition: Top 5 highlights to know

1. Exterior changes

The all-new Venue Knight Edition refers to the blacked-out version of the SUV. The small crossover is painted in two black colour options, including the Hazle Blue Matte and Mystic Sapphire.

Moreover, it boasts an all-black trim on the outside. This includes the glossy black grille, blacked-out window beadings, blacked-out bumper highlights, black alloy wheels, and a silver garnish on the front bumper to give it a special touch.

Hyundai has also engraved the “Knight Edition” badge on the tailgate to make sure nobody misses it on the road. The brake callipers have been painted in red, giving it a sporty outlook overall.

2. Interior changes

Following a similar trend, the interior layout has also been draped with an all-black theme. The Venue Knight Edition is based on the top-spec trims, which means that the seat fabric or leather, depending on the variant, is blacked out.

Moreover, the door pads and other interior highlights have also been painted black. However, the bronze highlights on the AC vents, steering wheel, and dashboard make sure that the cabin feels premium.

3. New features added

The Knight Edition Venue subcompact SUV also brings new features with it. The primary addition is a dual-dashcam, which captures the outside and inside footage continuously.

This dashcam also features multiple modes, which include multiple recording modes, emergency and event mode, and even a photo capture function.

4. No mechanical changes

The Indian-spec Venue continues to be offered with a 1.2-litre petrol, a 1.0-litre TGDi turbo petrol, and a 1.5-litre turbo diesel engine options. The latter two are available with manual and automatic transmission options, while the former is sold only with a manual gearbox.

However, the UAE-spec Hyundai Venue is sold only with the 1.0-litre, three-cylinder, turbo petrol TGDi engine. This engine develops 118 bhp and 172 Nm, and it is paired with a 7-speed DCT automatic transmission.

5. UAE launch details

Hyundai sells the previous-generation Venue in the Middle East currently. The new generation Venue is yet to be launched in the UAE, which has recently been launched in India. We suspect that the new-gen Hyundai Venue will be available in the UAE by late 2026.

Cars24 UAE says

The new-gen Hyundai Venue Knight Edition offers a distinctive road presence with its blacked-out trim and colour options. While it is a subcompact SUV, the black treatment makes it look mean and bigger than its actual size.
