Hyundai Venue vs Tata Nexon: which should you buy?
The Tata Nexon starts at ₹7.40L against the Hyundai Venue's ₹8.00L ex-showroom Delhi, so it is ₹0.60L cheaper to get into.
They run together up to ₹14.02L, where the Nexon 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 Nexon in petrol, diesel and CNG.
Same money, which car?
Take ₹14.02L to both showrooms and you come out with the Venue HX 8 at ₹13.71L or the Nexon Fearless+ at ₹14.02L, the Venue leaving ₹0.31L of that in your pocket.
Our take
The real reason to pay ₹0.31L more for the Nexon Fearless+: 360° camera and JBL system with Dolby Atmos. The useful extras on top: front parking sensors and speakers (9 against 6). At that price, we would stretch.
- Also on the Nexon Fearless+: driver display (10.25" digital against Semi-digital) and air purifier
- Going to the Nexon Fearless+, you give up all-wheel disc brakes, 4-way powered driver seat and drive modes, which the Venue HX 8 keeps
- Choose the Hyundai Venue HX 8 if
- You would rather keep the ₹0.31L than pay for kit you will not miss
- Choose the Tata Nexon Fearless+ if
- You live on your phone in the car and want the screens to keep up
