2025 Hyundai Venue Still Incredibly Affordable, Priced From $21,395
The Hyundai Venue subcompact SUV is among the most affordable new cars available, but it has a lot more than mere accessibility to recommend it. The Venue is spacious, holds up well in crash testing (only its headlights hold it back from Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick status) and remains attainable even when loaded up with features like heated seats and navigation. After adding more standard equipment for the 2024 model year, the Venue is largely unchanged for 2025, with a milder green (Mirage) replacing Green Apple in the palette. Accordingly, the Venue’s base price creeps up just $100 from 2024, to $21,395 (all prices include $1,395 destination fee).

Safety Features and Trim Levels
Even at its low price, the Venue includes more than just basic safety tech. Forward collision warning and emergency braking are de rigueur — but not federally mandated yet — as are relatively simple aids like automatic high beams and a rear-seat reminder. But the Venue also includes pedestrian detection, lane departure steering assist and a driver-attention monitor.
Beyond that, the entry-level SE trim is fairly rudimentary, riding on 15-inch wheels and outfitted with cloth upholstery and manually adjustable front seats, but it does include a tilt/telescoping steering wheel, keyless entry, six speakers, and an 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
More safety gear arrives with the SEL, which adds blind spot monitors and rear cross-traffic alert. The SEL also gains 17-inch wheels, a chrome grille, power moonroof, keyless start and automatic climate control.
Buyers can add accessories like all-season floormats and cargo organizers to push the Limited over $25,000, but they’ll have to be intentional about it. Standard equipment on the range-topping Venue includes an upgraded forward collision system with bicyclist detection, LED headlights and taillights, heated side mirrors and heated front seats. The Limited’s infotainment system gains navigation but requires a wired connection for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto; it also gets wireless phone charging.
