2026 Hyundai Venue

2026 Hyundai Venue at Plaza Hyundai

There are countless examples of when every square inch counts; the 2026 Hyundai Venue is one of them. The new compact SUV is an ideal combination of small size, intelligent design, and modern technology. The 2026 Venue is now available at Plaza Hyundai in Brooklyn, NY, and it is designed to navigate the urban jungle with ease. It’s easy to park, economical to operate, and has enough room to make everyday commuting through Flatbush or weekend driving to Coney Island more enjoyable. While it may be the smallest SUV in the Hyundai family, it has plenty of features that outperform some of its larger rivals.

With trims available including SE, SEL, and Limited, it allows enough options for every driver from those looking for affordability to those seeking style.

Interior Features

Step into the 2026 Venue, and you will find a cabin that is cleverly packaged to maximize space in a small footprint. The Venue seats five as standard and has surprisingly generous headroom and legroom for front and rear occupants. The rear seats fold down 60/40 and open up to nearly 32 cubic feet of cargo space, which should be plenty of room for groceries, weekend bags, or a quick trip to IKEA.

The dashboard is modern and clean, dominated by an 8-inch touchscreen, which is standard across the lineup. Higher trims get leatherette upholstery, a power sunroof, and heated front seats. The Venue feels well-equipped, with well-placed storage cubbies, comfortable cloth seats, and controls that are simple to use and comfortable to have around every day.

Small touches such as rear USB ports, available ambient lighting, and the clever placement of cupholders demonstrate that Hyundai is paying close attention to detail in their subcompact SUV.

Exterior Features

The 2026 Venue is evidence that the features of small SUVs can be done in less traditional fashion. The upright stance, aggressive front grille, and blocklike shape impart an urban-cool style rarely seen on the busy streets of Brooklyn. LED daytime running lights, headlamps, and taillamps sharpen the aesthetic, while 15-inch steel wheels adorn the SE while alloy wheels are an upgrade on the SEL and Limited trims.

Two-tone paint options, available roof rails, and a floating roof design on upper trims add personality, while the compact size makes it a dream to parallel park in tight NYC spaces.

Available Exterior Colors:

  • Black Noir Pearl
  • Intense Blue
  • Scarlet Red Pearl
  • Lunar White
  • Green Apple
  • Ecotronic Gray

Power & Performance

To streamline things, the 2026 Venue is powered by a familiar 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine developing 121 horsepower and 113 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the front wheels via a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). While it may not be winning any drag races, the Venue is clearly tuned for urban driving: light steering, compact size, great outward visibility, and nimble enough to navigate narrow Brooklyn streets and quick lane changes on the Belt Parkway.

The Venue excels in terms of fuel economy, providing excellent gas mileage and helping reduce trips to the pump – essential for busy New Yorkers. It has three drive modes, Normal, Sport, and Snow, that help change the Venue's character, with Snow mode giving you just a little added confidence on those slippery winter days.
