5 Features Kia Sonet Gets But Hyundai Venue Doesn’t | V3Cars

In this article, we tell you 5 features that are missing in the Hyundai Venue but available with Kia Sonet.

1. Auto-dimming IRVM

The Kia Sonet comes with an auto-dimming inside rear view mirror whereas the Venue gets a manually-adjustable day/night IRVM. It is worth noting that both the sub-compact SUVs get SOS and emergency buttons on the IRVM module. 

2. Premium Sound System

The Kia Sonet comes with a Bose surround sound system with 4 speakers, 2 tweeters and a subwoofer. The Hyundai Venue, on the other hand, gets an unbranded audio system with 4 speakers and 2 tweeters. The Venue pre-facelift  was offered with an Arkamys sound system but Hyundai decided to remove it due to the high licensing cost for the premium sound system.

3. Sunglass Holder

Kia offer a sunglass holder in the Sonet, which is a feature that’s missing in the Hyundai Venue. In the Kia Sonet, you get a sunglass holder placed above the front map lights inside the cabin.

4. Ventilated Front Seats

The Kia Sonet is offered with ventilated seats at the front while the Venue lacks this feature. Apart from the Sonet, only the Nexon offers front ventilated seats function in the sub-compact SUV segment.

5. Traction Modes

The Kia Sonet gets 3 predefined traction modes – mud, sand and snow. Apart from that, the Sonet also gets multiple drive modes. The Hyundai Venue, on the other hand, only gets drive modes for the engine and transmission and a fairly standard traction control system with no modes.
