Our take
The real reason to pay ₹0.17L more for the Venue N Line N10: level 2 (full suite) ADAS, 360° camera and single-pane sunroof. The useful extras on top: touchscreen (12.3" against 10.25") and connected car tech. The rest of the additions are minor trim. At that price, we would stretch.
- Also on the Venue N Line N10: ventilated front seats, 8-way powered driver seat, front parking sensors and speakers (8 against 6), and some minor trim beyond that
- Choose the Kia Seltos HTE(O) if
- You would rather keep the ₹0.17L than pay for kit you will not miss
- Choose the Hyundai Venue N Line N10 if
- You will do long stints in this car and want the daily comforts
