Hyundai Venue vs Renault Kiger: which should you buy?
The Renault Kiger starts at ₹5.81L against the Hyundai Venue's ₹8.00L ex-showroom Delhi, so it is ₹2.19L cheaper to get into.
They run together up to ₹10.40L, where the Kiger tops out. Past that only the Venue has anything left to sell you, up to ₹15.65L.
Fuel is a real difference here: the Venue comes in petrol and diesel, the Kiger in petrol.
Same money, which car?
Take ₹10.40L to both showrooms and you come out with the Venue HX 5+ at ₹10.00L or the Kiger Emotion at ₹10.40L, the Venue leaving ₹0.40L of that in your pocket.
Our take
The real reason to pay ₹0.40L more for the Kiger Emotion: the Kiger Emotion runs the turbo engine, 100 PS against 83 PS, a 20 percent jump you will feel and the Kiger Emotion shifts itself while the other is a manual. It also adds 360° camera and ventilated front seats. The rest of the additions are minor trim. At that price, we would stretch.
- Also on the Kiger Emotion: drive modes, driver display (7" digital against Semi-digital), auto climate (single zone) and rain-sensing wipers, and some minor trim beyond that
- Going to the Kiger Emotion, you give up single-pane sunroof, touchscreen (10.25" against 8") and cruise control, which the Venue HX 5+ keeps
- Choose the Hyundai Venue HX 5+ if
- You would rather keep the ₹0.40L than pay for kit you will not miss
- Choose the Renault Kiger Emotion if
- You want the stronger, quicker car and will use the performance
