What, an SUV for just over $20,000? Yes, it's possible with the Hyundai Venue! Well, let's agree that it's more of a subcompact car with SUV looks. The Venue is only available with front-wheel drive.
But the good news is that underneath its playful styling lies a familiar powertrain, that of the old Hyundai Accent. This means the Venue is reliable, fuel-efficient and low-maintenance. What's more, its utility form makes it considerably more spacious and versatile than a car.
