Two of the tiniest urban crossovers do battle. They're very similar offerings that are most clearly separated by their designs and drivetrain performance.

CarExpert's Take
- More practical than most rivals
- Still good value
- Warranty and servicing promise
- Heavy steering during low speed moves
- Far from a safety standard-setter
- Annoying transmission at higher speeds
- Drive-away pricing remains sharp
- Relatively practical and efficient
- Strong 7-year warranty
- Service costs are far too high
- Missing features available overseas
- Drivetrain is laggy at times

- Atlas White
- Abyss Black

All bar Atlas White cost an extra $595.
All models have a black interior as standard, though the Elite can be specified with a Denim interior colourway. This is only available on vehicles finished in Shimmering Silver or The Denim.
The Elite can be had with a two-tone exterior treatment, with a contrast colour for the roof, mirror caps and side garnishes, however this deletes the sunroof.

Reviews
The 2023 Hyundai Venue light SUV has seen some changes across the range, with spec added but – you guessed it – prices are up.
Matt Campbell
Kia's littlest crossover remains a sharp value pick in a hot segment. But, expensive servicing and spec gaps are marks against it.
