The Suzuki Ignis bears a familiar name but, if you think this new model shares the boring Euro-box design of the old cars, think again.
Pros Striking looks Decent passenger space Hybrid version for the environmentally conscious
Cons Limited engine choice Some rivals ride better Infotainment system isn’t class-leading
Pros Funky and chunky styling Colourful personalisation options Peppy little engine
Cons No active safety systems available Not really an SUV Ride can be a little crashy
Pros Looks superb, doesn’t use much fuel, low prices, chirpy character.
Cons The ride’s pretty unsophisticated… and that’s about it
The 2020 Hyundai Venue is a subcompact crossover with big ideas.
Pros Spunky looks Flexible cargo space Hatchback practicality 8.0-inch touchscreen Automatic emergency braking is standard
Cons Is it too small? That grille, though Wild colors Stretching the definition of a crossover
The Hyundai Venue will be the Korean automaker's newest and smallest crossover when it goes on sale for the 2020 model year. The tiny ute will slot below the already subcompact Hyundai Kona. We expect the 2020 Hyundai Venue to be in dealerships before the end of 2019. The Venue will have few direct competitors—namely the Ford EcoSport and the Nissan Kicks. We expect the pint-sized Hyundai to have an equally diminutive stature. An 8.0-inch infotainment system will offer Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability as well as streaming audio and voice-controlled search functionality. Navigation with real-time traffic updates will be optional.
