2026 Hyundai Venue Vs Rivals – Diesel Specs Compared

Like its predecessor, the new Venue 2026 is offered with a 1.5L diesel engine. Here’s how the 2026 Venue’s 1.5L diesel engine compares against the diesel variants of the Tata Nexon, Mahindra XUV 3XO, and Kia Sonet:

2026 HYUNDAI VENUE VS RIVALS TURBO PETROL SPECS COMPARED
Model	2026 Hyundai Venue	Tata Nexon	Kia Sonet	Mahindra XUV 3XO
Engine	1.5L Diesel	1.5L Diesel	1.5L Diesel	1.5L Diesel
Power	116PS @ 4000rpm	116PS @ 3750rpm	116PS @ 4000rpm	117PS @ 3750rpm
Torque	250Nm @ 1500-2750rpm	260Nm @ 1500-2750rpm	250Nm @ 1500-2750rpm	300Nm @ 1500-2500rpm
Manual	6-speed	6-speed	6-speed	6-speed
Automatic	6-speed TC	6-speed AMT	6-speed TC	6-speed AMT

The new Venue shares its 1.5L diesel engine with the Kia Sonet. Both offer the identical power and torque outputs and get 2 transmission options – a 6-speed manual and 6-speed torque converter (TC) automatic
The Mahindra XUV 3XO produces the most torque here. It is available with either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automated manual transmission (AMT)
The Tata Nexon, too, is available with a 6-speed manual and 6-speed AMT option
In terms of outright acceleration, the XUV 3XO should be the fastest SUV among this bunch
