The Best Part About the Hyundai Venue SEL

December 31, 2020

Hyundai introduced the Venue SEL last year as an affordable subcompact SUV option. I was able to drive the latest 2021 release of this car for a full week. For the price point, the Hyundai Venue is pretty sweet at just under $20,000, making this a great family car or one for your college-bound teenager.

I wanted to check out the ride, the roominess, the comfort, the safety features, and all the tech a family might need. Here is what I liked.

The Ride

The engine is a 1.6 liter 4 cylinder with 121 horsepower. It has an Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT). It offers just enough power for cruising seamlessly around town. The car is front-wheel-drive and the wheels are 17-inch, which is just enough for a smooth highway ride.

Interior Cabin

The Hyundai Venue SEL is very compact. It is more of a wagon than an SUV. It has 4 doors to easily get in and out of the front and back row seats and a hatchback to access a rear cargo area.

We could fit 4-1/2 people inside. I jokingly reference a half-person because the second-row seat is a little tight for 3 teenagers or adults. It is perfect for two fully grown people and one young child. The cargo space is just enough room for our pup, a good load of groceries, or some luggage for a weekend trip.

Safety

The Hyundai Venue SEL doesn’t skimp on safety features. There are adequate airbags inside the cabin. Other safety features include:

  • Driver Attention Warning (DAW)
  • High Beam Assist (HBA)
  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection (FCA-Ped)
  • Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
  • Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW)⁠
  • Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning (RCCW)⁠

Technology and Entertainment

There is an 8-inch color touchscreen display with audio on the center of the dashboard. This includes a Rear View Monitor (RVM). Apple CarPlay® integration for your iPhone® and Android Auto™ integration for your Android phone are standard. The hands-free phone system is Bluetooth® integrated.

While the Hyundai Venue SEL is a very subcompact SUV, it has everything a smaller family needs for day-to-day activities or shorter road trips. This car is extremely well priced for all that it has to offer.

I laid my dad to rest today. Although our relati I laid my dad to rest today. 

Although our relationship has been strained over the past 14 years, he was still my dad.

He instilled values in me that I have carried into adulthood and continue to pass down to my family. 

He showed me how to care for and appreciate my wife in such a way that she knows I love her.

He taught me life lessons that I have been able to teach my own children.

I wish we could have had a more meaningful relationship so that he (and my mom) could have experienced my life, my family, with me, but I’m grateful for the time we had. 

He’ll always be my dad and that seems like enough right now.
Thank you for being my #valentine today, tomorrow Thank you for being my #valentine today, tomorrow and forever!
I Love You! 💕
