Hyundai’s new SUV to take on the Skoda Slavia
Sedans have become a rare breed in the Indian market. More & more people are buying SUVs due to their list of visual & practical benefits. One of the benefits is the high ground clearance. However, with added ground clearance, the driver has to compromise on good driving dynamics. So, people concerned about good dynamics prefer sedans over SUVs. To tap on this, Hyundai is now working on a performance SUV in the form of the Venue N Line. The N Line products of Hyundai are inspired by Hyundai’s N performance-focused cars but only with some cosmetic changes. In today’s article, we will see Hyundai’s SUV that will take on the Skoda Slavia.
Hyundai’s N Line – Design
The Venue N Line will get a lot of design changes over the regular Venue. It will get a sporty front with triangular fog lamps, chequered flag grille, red side skirts and chromed twin exhausts. The N Line badges will be seen all over the exterior. On the interior front, it will get red stitchings, giving the cabin a sporty look. The N Line logo will be plastered on the seats and the headrests.
Specifications
The N Line cars only come with minor mechanical changes. Hyundai N Line will be come powered by the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine, which also powers the i20 N Line. However, Hyundai could re-tune the engine to produce more power. Hyundai will also improve the handling and suspension to give it sporty dynamics. Gearbox options will include a DCT and an iMT gearbox.
Hyundai’s N Line – Features
The N Line variants of Hyundai are based on the top-spec variants. So it will come with all the bells and whistles as the normal Venue. It will come with features like an 8.0-inch infotainment system, connected car technology, paddle shifters, wireless charging, air purifier, electric sunroof and keyless entry.
Launch
Hyundai has been testing the Venue N Line in South Korea. So we can expect a launch in the Korean market in the coming weeks. Hyundai is then expected to launch this car in India as well. Hyundai is also set to launch the Venue facelift in India by mid-2022. So, we can expect Hyundai to couple both the offerings together and we might directly get to see the N Line variant on the facelift.
