When looking for a new SUV in 2024, the Hyundai Venue, specifically the SE, is a great place to start. Priced at under $20,000 and boasting plenty of fun standard specs, the Venue is a competitive option for those needing something for up to five passengers, but for a fair sticker price. Moreover, you can expect the base SE trim to host the same engine and performance as the other two trims, with a 121 horsepower 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine plus continuous variable transmission. Its front-wheel drive is well-received by drivers, as are its MPG estimates of up to 29 city / 33 highway.
We don't want to spoil everything right away, so keep reading this guide to the 2024 Hyundai Venue SE below!
What's New for 2024?
The Hyundai Venue will not see many changes in 2024. The only significant update for the base SE trim is the addition of a six-speaker audio system. In your other models, the Hyundai Venue gets second-row USB ports, which are standard in SEL and Limited trims, and keyless entry with push-button start. Besides those minor upgrades, your 2024 Hyundai Venue stays unchanged. We expect a broader update in the next release or so.
Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
Getting into the interior, comfort, and cargo of a 2024 Hyundai Venue SE, you will have quite a bit come standard and decent trunk and floor space for groceries, luggage, and other items. This year's Venue sticks to what it's good at, including things like standard cloth seating, a six-way manual driver's seat, a 60/40 split-folding rear seat, front USB charging ports, single-zone temperature control, and a nice selection of infotainment via an 8.0-inch touchscreen.
For your passenger-related dimensions:
- Headroom (front/rear): 39.4 / 38.6 inches
- Leg room (front/rear): 41.3 / 34.3 inches
- Shoulder room (front/rear): 53.9 / 53.7 inches
- Hip room (front/rear): 52.1 / 43.5 inches
Your trunk volume is ~19 cubic feet, with a total capacity of 31.9 cubic feet, with the rear seats folded down. Moreover, the total passenger volume is 91.9 cubic feet, with seating for up to five people. This vehicle follows a traditional two-row SUV format. Although the Hyundai Venue is compact, it fares well in terms of its total cargo.
Here are these figures summarized:
- Total interior volume: 110.6 cubic feet
- Passenger volume: 91.9 cubic feet
- Cargo volume rear seats up/rear seats folded down: 18.7 / 31.9 cubic feet

Specifically, this nameplate brings things like 15-inch alloy wheels, a dramatic black grille, projector halogen headlights with auto high beam assist, seven distinct colors, and much more. What makes the Venue sparkle is its dynamic curves from front to back, plus its subcompact build, which is perfect for urban driving and parking. You can expect this car to be easy to maneuver and adventurous when the time comes for a road trip.
Here are your exterior colors for 2024:
- Onyx Black

- Ecotronic Gray
- Ultimate Red
- Shimmering Silver
- Lunar White
- Intense Blue
For your 2024 Hyundai Venue SE dimensions, we have:
- Wheelbase: 99.2 inches
- Length: 159.1 inches
- Width without mirrors: 69.7 inches
- Height: 61.6 inches
- Minimum ground clearance: 6.69 inches
Again, this is a subcompact SUV, so it will be smaller than a Palisade, Santa Fe, or Tucson. The Venue is known as Hyundai's smallest SUV offering.
Fuel Economy and MPG
The 2024 Hyundai Venue SE's fuel economy and MPG ratings will be the same across the three trims because they all share the same engine. Per the EPA, drivers inside this model can expect 31 combined MPGs and 29 city / 33 highway. It achieves decent fuel economy because of its lightweight design, so that's a huge perk for people who don't want to be at the gas station every few days. The final gas consumption rate is 3.2 gallons of fuel per 100 miles in the 2024 Venue.
Engine, Powertrain, and Performance
Regarding the engine and its performance features in a 2024 Hyundai Venue SE, you have a standard 121 horsepower 1.6-liter four-cylinder you're working with. Your torque sits at 113 pound-feet, while the drivetrain will fall under FWD. Your transmission is a typical CVT and should aid in smooth, easy gear changes on the road.
You won't be racing in a 2024 Hyundai Venue but can rely on it for everyday driving and road trips. It's very reliable.
